Questions & Answers
A Havanese is a toy-sized dog breed that is native to Cuba. It is a small, lively, and affectionate animal that is especially well-liked among families. A Havanese's coat can range in color from white, black, brown, tan, fawn, silver, or sable. The coat also can be curly or wavy, long or short. Generally, the life expectancy of the Havanese is around 15 years. This breed is easily trainable, and is quite active, often described as 'bouncing' across the floor.
Yes, Havaneses are considered to be a non-shedding breed due to the fact that their coat is completely made up of human-like afro-like curls. As a result, they do not tend to lose copious amounts of hair like other breeds, making them an ideal choice for those who have allergies or are looking for a low-maintenance companion. They are also hypoallergenic, which means many owners may not even need to groom them as often as other breeds too.
Havaneses are small dogs that require a specific diet to maintain their health and active lifestyle. Generally, a Havaneses should consume high quality dry kibble specifically designed for toy breeds or small dogs. In addition to kibble, a Havaneses can benefit from fresh meats such as lean beef, boiled chicken and fresh fish. Vegetables such as carrots and green beans are also recommended. Homemade dog food is also acceptable as long as it follows the nutritional needs of a Havaneses. As with any breed of dog, plenty of fresh, clean water should also be consistently available.
Preparing for your new Havanese should include both gathering supplies and researching the breed. Necessary items to have before bringing them home include a collar with an ID tag, leash, food and food dishes, and toys. Researching the breed is equally important as understanding the temperament, health concerns, and exercise needs are crucial to a successful bond with your new pet. Additionally, enrolling your pup into puppy classes and socializing them with other dogs and people can lead to a successful transition into the family and a happy pup.
The size of a Havanese puppy can vary greatly. Generally, this small dog breed will reach a height of 8.5 to 11.5 inches and weigh from 7 to 13 pounds when fully grown. Since Havanese puppies are so small, they require extra care and special attention when it comes to their nutrition, exercise and grooming. Depending on the puppy's age and environment, this breed has the potential to grow and mature faster or slower than average.
Your Havanese should get at least 30 minutes of exercise per day, ideally broken up into two 15 minute sessions. Walking is great exercise since it builds their muscles and keeps them healthy, but you could also take them to the park to play games, fetch, or swim. Regular exercise helps prevent boredom, encourages bonding between you and your pup, and builds their muscular and cardiovascular health. Additionally, it helps them remain energetic and social so they stay physically and mentally fit. Building a routine is important because it gives your pup consistency and structure, as well as making them look forward to every walk.
Absolutely! Havaneses make excellent family dogs! They are loyal, intelligent, affectionate, and relatively low-maintenance. They demand very little in terms of grooming and exercise, while still retaining their playful, energetic nature. Havaneses are incredibly people-oriented, so they need to be around their family to feel secure and content. Plus, their small size makes them perfect for small living spaces. As long as their families can provide them with plenty of love and attention, Havaneses make wonderful, devoted family pets.
Training a Havanese can be a rewarding experience, although as with any breed of dog, it takes patience, commitment, and consistency. Each dog is unique and different breeds possess a variety of individual personalities and traits that require different training methods. With the Havanese, the overall goal is to build a strong bond between you and your pup, that is based on trust and respect. When working on any kind of training with a Havanese, positive reinforcement and praise for correct behavior will go a long way.
