Questions & Answers
One of the most interesting things about Havaneses is their intelligence. This breed of dog was bred to serve as a companion animal and is considered one of the top 10 most trainable breeds in the world. The Havaneses has also been referred to as "the velcro dog" because it is so eager to bond with its owners. They are naturally curious, playful, alert, and highly devoted and loyal animals and are full of personality.
Yes, Havaneses tend to be hypoallergenic dogs due to their low-shedding rate and lack of dander. Dander is often the main cause of pet-induced allergies, so having a low-dander breed such as a Havaneses can mean a much lower risk of developing an allergic reaction. These dogs also shed a low amount of hair, which greatly reduces the chance of any indoor allergy triggers. While no dog is completely hypoallergenic, Havaneses are surely known to be among the breeds with the lowest allergen producing potential.
Havaneses are generally considered small dogs, so it is important to provide them with a balanced diet that won't cause them harm. As a general rule, avoid feeding them anything too greasy, high in fat, or high in sugar, as this can lead to problems down the line, including pancreatic, dental, and digestive issues. It is also important to avoid rawhide, bones, and any type of poultry bones as these can splinter easily and become lodged in the throat or the stomach. Slightly softer, cooked food, like boiled chicken, is a safer option.
Preparing your home for a new Havanese can be both a fun and an involved process. Start by familiarizing yourself with the breed, as Havanese require a lot of grooming and lots of love and attention. Then, create a safe, stable home for your newly adopted pup. Set up an area specifically for him with a comfortable bed, toys, a water bowl and a food dish. Additionally, puppy-proof your house by hiding cords, moving plants out of reach, and setting a sturdy gate to keep them from venturing into off-limit rooms.
Havaneses may come in various sizes, depending on the particular breed and if the dog has been crossed with other breeds. Generally, a Havaneses can range from 7-14 inches tall from the shoulder to the floor, and a puppy will weigh approximately 5-10 pounds when fully grown. The range can also vary, with smaller and larger sizes possible. Havaneses also come in different coat colors, which can range from white to black. Their coats are usually detailed with markings of other colors.
The amount of walking that an individual Havanese should receive will depend on their age, energy level, and overall health. Generally, it's recommended that Havanese get between 30 minutes and 1 hour of daily activity. This can include walking, playing, and other forms of exercise like fetch or swimming. Depending on the energy level of your Havanese, you may want to adjust the amount of time you spend walking to ensure they stay active and healthy too much exercise can result in exhaustion or injury.
Havaneses can be a good choice for first-time dog owners. They are energetic, smart, and playful, though they can also be stubborn if their minds get stuck on something. They are small dogs and relatively low maintenance, and they generally get along well with people, other dogs, and cats in a house-hold, making them a great choice for multi-pet households. They are active, so they’ll need regular daily exercise to stay both mentally and physically stimulated, but their size means you won’t have to take them for long runs like with bigger dogs.
Training a Havanese is not as challenging as most other dogs; they are highly intelligent and therefore, relatively easy to train. To get the best results, consistency is key. Begin training your Havanese as early as possible, and stick to a routine. Start with the basics, such as sit, stay, come, and no; then move on to more complex obedience commands. Use positive reinforcement, such as verbal rewards and treats, to incentivize obedience and reward good behaviors.
