Questions & Answers
Havaneses are a beloved companion breed around the world! They are a small and sturdy breed that originates from Cuba and developed from a combination of Bichon, Maltese, Poodle and the now extinct Blanquito de la Habana. Havaneses have a long lifespan of up to 15 years and are easily recognizable due to their long, silky hair, small stature and highly expressive faces. Additionally, Havaneses are natural clowns and love to be the center of attention with their playful and energetic personalities.
Havaneses are often considered to be hypoallergenic dogs. They do not shed as much as many other breeds, which can make them a good choice for people with allergies, as their fur can cause fewer allergic reactions. They also do not require as frequent grooming, or as much attention to their coats, as many other breeds do. That said, it's important to remember that all dogs can cause an allergic reaction in some people, so it's always best to talk to your veterinarian about any allergies you might have before bringing any pet into your home.
Feeding a Havaneses correctly is essential to their overall health, and it’s important to be aware of what you give them. Avoid feeding them any sweets or chocolate, as this can be dangerous for their health and wellbeing. They should also never be given food that is unsafe for any dog including rawhide bones, grape and raisin products, bones, onion, and garlic. Table scraps should also be avoided, as your Havaneses will not receive the necessary nutrition and calories from them.
Preparing your home for your new Havanese is easy. Start by making sure the environment is safe: cover cords that could be chewed on, block off any areas of your home they should not go in, and don't forget to use a pet-safe pest control product in case of fleas or ticks. Provide an area that can be just theirs, such as a comfortable bed, blanket, and a few toys. Make sure the area is easily accessible to them and has easy access to food, water, and, most importantly, the outdoors.
Your Havanese puppy can grow up to 10-12 inches tall and 8-11 pounds in weight. The size of the pup will depend on a variety of factors including the size of both parents, any issues of inbreeding, and general health. In most cases, they tend to retain the characteristics of a smaller breed of dog throughout their adult life. As the Havanese age, it will become easier to predict their adult size since they reach full size between the ages of 8-12 months.
Yes, Havaneses are very active dogs. They love to run around and play, and they need to stay active in order to stay healthy and live a long life. Exercise is important for them, and they need a lot of mental stimulation throughout the day. Walks, jogs, and educational puzzle games are just some of the ways to keep their minds and bodies healthy. They are curious and intelligent and need plenty of activities to keep them happy. They don't tend to do well when cooped up in a small space.
Havaneses generally get along well with other pets, such as cats and other small dogs. They have a friendly, social nature and can be quite affectionate. Furthermore, their small size means that they are unlikely to overpower or intimidate other pets and are often content to live in peace with them. It's important for Havaneses to socialize with other animals from an early age so that they learn proper behavior and don't develop negative feelings towards other animals. With the correct introduction and guidance, Havaneses can be enjoyable and loyal companions for any other pets in the home.
Training a Havanese is a rewarding experience that requires patience but is not necessarily difficult. Depending on the dog's age, breed experience, and home environment, the amount of training required will vary. A Havanese needs to learn basic obedience skills like potty training, obedience and behavior commands, and basic manners, and the best approach to do this is consistency; using the same techniques, same environment, and a consistent trainer. Positive reinforcement is also important and should be balanced with consistency.
