Questions & Answers
Havaneses are a small, friendly, and intelligent breed of dog. They are often referred to by several names, including Havana Silk Dog, the Cuban Bichon, or the Havaneso. They are mainly white, with different coats ranging from curly to straight, soft, and silky. Their friendly nature makes them an ideal pet for families with children, as they are very gentle and affectionate. They are also easy to train and respond well to reward-based training approaches.
Havaneses are considered to be a hypoallergenic breed and are generally non-shedding. Depending on the individual, some Havaneses may shed a little more than others, but overall this breed of dog produces minimal amounts of dander and fur. This makes them an ideal breed for those with allergies. To complement their low shedding, they also require minimal grooming, making them an attractive pet for those who want a smaller companion with minimal maintenance.
Havaneses have a very nutritious and balanced diet, tailored to meet their needs as a breed. They usually enjoy eating high quality dry kibble supplemented with home cooked meals that can include lean proteins such as chicken, fish and eggs, as well as whole grains like oatmeal, brown rice and quinoa. Additionally, they may need special treats to meet their nutritional needs, such as mashed or boiled vegetables, low-fat cheese or yogurt, and some fruits such as apples, melons or pears.
Prior to your new Havanese's arrival, it is important to create a safe and comfortable home environment. Start by puppy-proofing your home with the goal of making it a safe, secure and fun environment for your pup. Ensure to identify areas that aren’t pet-friendly and should be avoided, such as hazardous products, wires and plants. Gather necessities like toys, food, water and a bed to set up a designated space for your new pet. Also, prepare a good space for potty training as well as a space to play and rest.
A Havanese grown to its full size will typically reach between 8 and 11 inches tall, with the average being around 9-10 inches. The ideal weight is 7-13 pounds, although some may range from 6-14 pounds. The size of the Havanese can depend on their exercise habits and the amount of food they eat. The Havaneses are relatively small dogs and usually don't need much space in terms of their living environment, making them a wonderful pet for small homes or apartments.
Havaneses are an active breed, which makes them a great companion for an active lifestyle. Generally, it is recommended that active breeds such as the Havaneses receive at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. It is important to keep in mind that each dog is different and that some may need more exercise than others. It is best to consult with your veterinarian to determine the ideal level of activity for your Havaneses. Additionally, varied activities such as walking, jogging, swimming, or playing fetch can help keep your dog's body healthy and mind engaged.
Havaneses are well-known for being a great companion for children of all ages. Not only are they highly intelligent, but they also form strong bonds with their families and enjoy spending lots of time with their human companions, especially children. However, it's important to make sure to provide your Havaneses with proper training and socialization so they understand how to behave around kids. With proper training and lots of positive reinforcement, your Havaneses will be sure to be the perfect pet for your family, including the kids.
Training a Havanese requires patience, understanding, and consistency. Start with basic commands like 'sit', 'come' and 'stay'. Begin the lessons in an area with few distractions and provide treats or verbal praise as rewards when the dog successfully completes the command. As your Havanese responds positively, you can move to areas with more distractions like crowded places or parks. Work with your pup multiple times a day in short intervals and increase the time spent on training, as he progresses.
