Questions & Answers
A Havanese is a breed of small dog originating in Cuba. It is an outgoing and affectionate canine breed that is highly intelligent. The Havanese is a loyal companion and is often referred to as a Velcro dog because it may follow you around the house. It is a joyful companion that loves to play and goes well with children and other pets. The average Havanese stands 8 to 11 inches and weighs between 7 to 13 pounds with a long, silky double coat that is white, chocolate, black, combinations of all of these, and more.
Havaneses typically do not cause their owners to develop allergies. However, as with any breed of dog, having an allergic reaction to puppyshed dander or saliva is possible. Any pet can cause an allergic reaction if your system gets exposed to enough allergens. As such, it is important to be aware of any allergies you have before bringing a Havaneses into your home. Taking the right precautions, such as bathing and brushing your pet regularly, using air filters, and regularly cleaning surfaces can help reduce the dander that causes an allergic reaction.
A Havanese is a small breed of dog and, due to its size, requires quality nutrition. It is important to select a food formulated for small breeds. Look for a high quality food made with natural ingredients with a good balance of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Avoid foods with grain fillers, by-products, or artificial ingredients. Speak with your vet about an appropriate dietary plan and ask about the caloric and nutrient requirements for your individual dog. Give your Havanese two meals per day, each one should be broken into two or three snacks.
To become the best puppy parent for your Havanese, there are several steps you should take. First, ensure you are providing your puppy with nourishing and balanced meals every day. Additionally, provide regular exercise such as walks and playtime to help keep your pup physically and mentally fit. A tired pup is usually a happy pup! Next, create a safe and comfortable environment for your pup to explore and express themselves. Be sure to dog-proof the area and create a routine discipline and reward system for when rules are broken or obeyed.
The average size of a Havanese adult is around 8-11 inches from paw to shoulder. The approximate weight of an adult ranges from 7 to 13 pounds. However, how large a Havanese puppy will be when fully adult is impossible to predict precisely since genetics and diet both play a role in the puppy's growth. To ensure your pup will reach its full potential size, it is important to provide some sort of plan and a balanced diet for your puppy. The size of its parents can also be an indication of how big your pup will become as an adult.
Absolutely! Taking your Havanese running is a great way to provide them with exercise and bonding time. It is important, however, to consider that Havanese are not built for long-distance running or jogging, since their short legs and small stature make it more difficult for them to cover distance. Instead, try taking them on short walks or jogs around the neighborhood or local park, where they can experience new smells and sights and get the chance to move around at their own pace.
Havaneses can make wonderful family companions, especially with children. They are known for their smarts, affectionate nature, and good-natured temperaments. With proper socialization and training, these little pups can learn to accept all kinds of people and adjust easily to new and changing family situations including children. Generally, Havaneses get along well with kids that are gentle, respectful, and understand how to properly interact with a dog. The breed is very social, playful, and makes a great companion for children due to their affectionate, loyal, and loving personality.
Training a Havanese is not necessarily easy, but it can be done with plenty of patience and consistency. Every Havanese has its own personality, so some may be easier to train than others, but ultimately any pup can be taught basic commands. Proper use of positive reinforcement is key in successfully training a Havanese. Rewarding them with treats or verbal praise when they do something correctly is a great way to reinforce that behavior and ensure that they want to do it again.
