Questions & Answers
Havaneses are a breed of small, toy-sized dogs that have a lot of energy and require lots of exercise. They are social animals and need to be around people often. They are friendly towards strangers but can be wary of new people or situations. They will bond with one particular person and will be fiercely loyal to them. It's important to socialize Havaneses from a young age to ensure they are well-behaved around other pets and people. With proper training, they will follow instructions and do well in agility courses and other activities.
The odds of having an allergic reaction to a Havaneses is no greater or lesser than with any other breed of dog. However, it is important to note that even if one was not previously allergic to dogs, dog allergies can develop as time passes, regardless of breed. As such, potential experiences with Havaneses should be closely monitored for any allergic symptoms, such as watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, skin irritation, and breathing difficulties. Consult with a physician if any signs of an allergic reaction occur.
Your Havanese should be fed a high-quality, species-appropriate diet that meets its nutritional needs. This diet should consist primarily of a premium kibble made specifically for toy and small breeds. Additionally, you can supplement your Havanese's diet with fresh, human-grade cooked meats and/or high-quality canned food. The types and amounts of food should be tailored to your Havanese's age, size, and activity level.
Starting your journey with your new Havanese pup is an exciting experience. Prepping beforehand is important for a successful transition and bonding experience. Here are some steps you can take to make sure you are ready: First, purchase the necessary items for your pup such as a bed, toys, food, and a crate. Next, designate a safe area for your pup that they can call their own. Additionally, spend time learning about Havanese behavior and needs. Research will help you prepare realistic expectations and training strategies.
Your Havanese puppy may reach maturity at between 8 and 11 inches in height and weigh 7 to 13 pounds. Size can vary depending on genetics and the pup's parental lineage, so it can be difficult to predict with certainty how large your pup may be as an adult. However, Havanese are known for their small stature and adorable features, so you can be sure that your new puppy will be quite the cute companion!
Walking a Havanese every day for at least 20 minutes can provide great benefit to your pet's health and well-being. Depending on the age and activity level of your Havanese, more exercise may be necessary. As a rule of thumb, 20-30 minutes per day is suggested, but some adult dogs may require 45 minutes or more. It's important to adjust the activity according to your pet's needs, so be sure to monitor your pup's reactions and take your cues from them.
Havaneses are an excellent choice if you have young children! This breed is known for its intelligence, affectionate nature, and a patience that can translate to being kid-friendly. They are loyal and loving, making them a great addition to any family with children. At the same time, their sweet temperament won't typically overwhelm a small kid, as they are relatively calm and gentle. The Havaneses are also active animals that love to play, meaning that they'll be up for any game that your kids are interested in.
The amount of training that you need to do per day for a Havanese dog depends on several factors, including the age of the dog, the type of training you are doing, and the individual dog. Generally speaking, Havanese dogs require a minimum of 10-15 minutes of training per day in order to maintain their obedience and skills, and up to 30 minutes a day can help to further develop your dog's skills.
