Questions & Answers

They typically weigh between seven and thirteen pounds and stand eight to ten inches tall. With regular exercise, nutrition, and socialization, Havaneses are known for their longevity. As a result, they can happily be part of your family for at least 12-14 years.
The Havanese has a long and silky coat that comes in a variety of colors, from cream and gold to solid black or white. The coat is often considered hypoallergenic because it is non-shedding and does not produce an excessive amount of dander.

Because of their longer coats, they need to be groomed and brushed often to maintain a healthy and clean look. Havanese also require regular baths to keep their coat healthy, soft, and manageable.
