Questions & Answers
Havaneses are considered one of the oldest, purebred, toy breeds of dogs. They originated in Cuba where they were originally bred as companions for the aristocracy. They are known for being very loyal and make great lap dogs and family companions. Aside from their loyalty, Havaneses are known for their high intelligence and for being hypoallergenic. It has also been said that their coat develops unique shading characteristics with age, which can produce a tuxedo like look.
While there is no guaranteed way to be sure that owning a Havanese will not cause you to develop allergies, these breeds are considered hypoallergenic. This means that the breed's generally low-shedding and low-dander fur and coat are not likely to trigger the same allergic reactions as other breeds. It is advised that, prior to making a commitment to adopting, those with pre-existing allergies should spend some time in the company of a Havanese to determine if individual tolerance levels are adequate.
Havaneses love their food! They generally eat a variety of fruits and vegetables, including bananas, apples, and sweet potatoes. They also snack on grains like corn, oats, and wheat. As for protein, the Havaneses enjoy salmon and poultry. Legumes such as beans, peanuts, and lentils make up a part of their diet, too. Pebbles, a type of prickly pear, is a local favorite. It's a healthful way to enjoy a sweet, tangy shock.
Havanese have relatively few special requirements for grooming and exercise.Their coats require regular brushing and may need to be professionally groomed every so often. This breed also requires regular exercise including walks for at least 30 minutes per day. A corral, open yard, or doggie park are ideal for them to frolic and burn off extra energy. In addition to regular exercise, Havanese also benefit from socialization and understanding basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and no.
The size of your Havanese puppy will depend on several factors, such as their gender, genetics, and diet. On average, male Havanese adult dogs are typically 8 to 11 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh 7 to 13 pounds, while female dogs tend to be smaller with a shoulder height of 8 to 10 inches and a weight of 7 to 12 pounds. Bred as a companion dog, your Havanese puppy should reach full adult size within their first year of life, although puppies go through growth spurts during their first two months.

They also love to play in shallower, calmer bodies of water like lakes and pondsit's not uncommon to see a Havaneses frolicking in the nearest lake or wading pool! Over time, Havaneses may even enjoy playing in the waves by the shore.
Havaneses are generally friendly towards other pets, but it largely depends on how they are raised and their individual personalities. Generally, these dogs get along with other animals given the right introduction and exposure. They are sociable, so if they are brought up around other animals and properly socialized, they do very well with other pets.
