Questions & Answers
Havaneses are a breed of small, friendly dogs that are great for families and companionship. They are a toy breed, with a compact body and curly coat.

The Havaneses is considered to be a non-shedding breed and earns the nickname 'Bichon Hair-Don't-Care'. This Toy Spaniel is known for its rapidly-growing coat of hair that needs regular trimming and doesn't shed.
Generally speaking, Havaneses do not have any special dietary needs as they are considered a healthy breed. However, as with all dogs, it's important to provide them with a nutritious and complete diet of quality food that is suited to their age and size. For example, puppies should be fed a high-energy and protein-rich diet in order to provide them with the essential nutrients they need to grow strong. For adult Havaneses, a balanced and consistent diet should suffice.
Prior to bringing your new Havanese home, there are a few items you should acquire in order to ensure a comfortable, safe environment for your pup's arrival. Start by stocking up on food and treats, as well as picking out appropriate bedding, toys, and accessories. Make sure your entire home is properly puppy-proofed with baby gates, removing any items that could pose a risk. Have a designated area ready for your pup's crate, comfortable and quiet, with an easily accessible door.
Havaneses typically reach an adult size of between 7 and 12 pounds and 8 to 11 inches tall. The breed is known for its compact yet sturdy body, which normally has a height-to-length ratio of 2:3.

Despite their size, they tend to be very robust, agile and active.
Generally speaking, the necessary amount of exercise for a Havanese varies by age and fitness level. Therefore, how many minutes per day you should walk your Havanese can range significantly. If your Havanese is a puppy or senior, then you should gradually increase the amount of movement he/she is receiving. A younger or more fit pup will likely require anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes of walking per day, while a less active dog might need up to 45 minutes.
Absolutely! Havaneses make great family dogs, thanks to their loving, loyal, and playful personalities.
