Questions & Answers
Havaneses are a breed of small, white, fluffy dogs with dark eyes and cute, friendly faces. They are low-shedding and highly affectionate, with a charming and playful attitude. While havaneses are intelligent, independent and sensitive, they also remain loyal and loving companions to their owners. They tend to do well with other pets, such as cats and small animals, and also make a great addition to families with children. While they don't require a large amount of exercise, they do enjoy daily walks and playing outdoors from time to time.
Havaneses are often referred to as a non-shedding breed, but in reality, they do shed. They typically shed small amounts of fur and because of their unique, shaggy coats, the fur can be hard to see. Nevertheless, it's important to remember that all dogs shed to some degree. With regular grooming, Havaneses' coats will stay relatively clean and keep shedding to a minimum. Beside occasional brushing, Havaneses require regular bathing and haircuts, as part of their maintenance plan.
Your Havanese should be fed a diet that is tailored to their specific needs and health. When considering which food to purchase, look for a premium dry dog food that is labeled as AAFCO-approved (Association of American Feed Control Officials) as this indicates the food meets minimum nutrition levels established by the AAFCO. Avoid foods with added artificial ingredients, synthetic preservatives, and by-products. Havanese dogs may also benefit from a variety of natural foods such as fruits, vegetables, yogurt, fish, and other protein sources.
Before bringing home your new Havanese, it is wise to give your home an extra thorough cleaning. Make sure to use pet-friendly detergents and cleaners so as not to be harmful to your pup. Remove or block any areas or objects that may be dangerous to your new pet such as electrical cords, house plants, and sharp or breakable items. Also consider making sure there are enough cozy areas for your pup to rest and relax. A bed, blanket and few toys will go a long way in settling your pup into their new home.
The size of a Havanese varies depending on its gender and age, but generally it is a small breed of dog. The average height for a full-grown Havanese is between nine and eleven inches, and its average weight is seven to fifteen pounds. As puppies, Havaneses are usually smaller and may reach a height of just seven to eight inches. Knowing the size of a Havanese can be helpful when choosing the best type of home for the dog, since many people prefer a small to medium-sized breed.
Walking your Havanese is an important part of keeping them healthy and strong. Depending on your pup's age and health conditions, they should be getting at least 30 minutes of daily walking and exercise. Young puppies may need more, while older Havanese need a bit less. If your pup can handle it, a good walk every day will help keep them at a healthy weight and provide a good mental and physical exercise. Just be sure to monitor your pup's activity level. If they become over-tired from too much walking, then be sure to scale it back a bit.
Absolutely! Havaneses are known for their intelligence, gentle natures, and playful personalities, making them excellent companions for kids of all ages. They enjoy the company and attention of children, and will often become as attached to them as they do with their adult owners. The breed also has low exercise requirements, so it is great for homes with active kids, as well as households wanting a laid-back family pet. While some may bark at strangers, they’re not aggressive, and don’t bite easily.
Havaneses are often referred to as "Cuba's Havanese Ambassador for Good Will" because of their smart and charming personality; it is a testament to their intelligence. They have a natural curiosity that often has them exploring their environment and enjoying activities including agility, obedience, tracking, and common canine sports like flyball and dock diving. Havaneses have also been described as being "people dogs" as they have a naturally sociable and friendly disposition which makes them a great addition to any family that is looking for a loving companion.
