Questions & Answers
A Havanese is a small, hypoallergenic breed of dog that is one of the native dog breeds of Cuba. They are known for their outgoing and playful personalities, intelligence and beautiful coats. Havanese weigh between 8 to 13 pounds and they stand around 8 to 11 inches tall. These dogs usually sport a double coat of long, silky fur, often in a variety of different colors such as white, cream, golden, black and sable. They may also have highlights of gray, blue, or even chocolate.
Yes, Havaneses are considered hypoallergenic. This breed of dog is not known to shed much and does not have an undercoat, so that there is generally less fur for dander and other allergens to stick to. They are also considered 'smooth coated' and lack the profuse fur often found on other dog breeds. Additionally, Havaneses have an incredibly low chance of triggering allergic reactions, making them a great option for those who may not be able to tolerate other Breeds.
Your Havanese should be fed a balanced diet consisting of high-quality, nutrient-rich ingredients. Commercial pet foods have been formulated specifically for the nutritional needs of your Havanese, however it is recommended to consult with your veterinarian or a qualified pet nutritionist to determine the best diet for your specific pet. The proportion of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals should be carefully calculated to provide optimal nutrition for your Havanese. Feeding your Havanese items such as table scraps, raw eggs, and bones should be avoided.
The easiest way to prepare your home for a new Havanese is to have everything puppy-proofed prior to their arrival. Be sure to remove any hazardous materials such as poisonous plants and objects your puppy may try to chew on. Additionally, make sure all electrical cords are tucked away and out of reach. Prepare a designated area for your puppy that includes a cozy bed, water and food dishes, as well as designated potty training areas. Additionally, provide plenty of toys and interactive activities to keep your pup occupied and entertained.
Havaneses are a small breed of dog, ranging in height from around 8.5 to 11.5 inches and weighing between 7 and 13 pounds. As this breed is more often than not considered a "toy" breed, they generally do not exceed these sizes at maturity. Of course, each individual dog may be slightly larger or smaller than the typical size of the breed, but most are within the same range. Generally, full grown Havaneses retain the playful, puppy-like demeanor for life, allowing them to remain puppies in spirit forever!
While every dog is different, Havaneses are generally quite active dogs. They have lots of energy, their eagerness to explore, and enjoy playing games with their owners. They tend to be highly sociable and can get along well with other pets and people. Havaneses love walks, and some owners have found that they are able to go on moderate outdoor activities such as jogging and running with their owners as well. As long as they have plenty of time set aside to exercise every day, Havaneses will happily stay active and can make great companions.
Havaneses make excellent family dogs, due to their intelligence, trainability, and curiosity. They are easy to train, as they have good memories and excel when it comes to learning. Havaneses have a strong loyalty to their family and aim to please. They are generally friendly, funny, and loving dogs that will become an integral part of the family. With their spunk and energy, they will bring lots of fun, laughter, and friendship to a family.
Training a Havanese can be an enjoyable experience depending on their individual temperament, but it is important to remember that all dogs, no matter the breed, require some type of training in order to become well-mannered and obedient. While the Havanese may have some charming traits, they also require a good deal of patience and consistency to successfully train. Depending on the age and previous experiences of the Havanese, the training process may take longer or require more time and effort. Consistency and rewarding positive behaviors are key elements of success with the Havanese and any breed.
