Questions & Answers
Havaneses have a unique and wonderful personality that stands out among other breeds. They are intelligent, devoted, gentle, and also quite playful, which makes them an ideal companion for any home. In addition, they are a hypoallergenic breed, meaning people with allergies to certain dog breeds can own them without worrying about sneezing fits and other allergy-related problems. Furthermore, they require regular grooming, as their hair is quite long and tends to become matted if not brushed regularly.
Allergies can be tough to manage, but there are some things you can do to help when it comes to Havaneses-specific allergies. First, keep your Havaneses groomed regularly to reduce the amount of allergens in its coat. Have it brushed out often and use a vacuum with an HEPA filter. Additionally, invest in high-grade, allergen-resistant bedding to help reduce any airborne allergies. Consider using air purifiers throughout your home to reduce indoor air pollutants.
Finding the best dog food for your Havaneses is an important decision. Nutritional needs can vary based on the size of the breed and age. Havaneses tend to require a high-quality diet with a balanced amount of nutrients, protein, and carbohydrates. A diet specifically designed for small breeds of dogs, which a Havaneses is, is likely the best option. Some high-quality sources that fit these needs could include premium dry dog food, canned wet food, and even some home-cooked meals as long as they contain the right balance of all the necessary nutrients.
To ensure that you and your new Havanese have a successful relationship, it is important to prepare ahead of time. Start by researching the breed-specific-needs of the Havanese and create an environment that is safe and secure. Make sure there are plenty of toys available to keep your Havanese entertained and provide a comfortable bed/crate for them to sleep in. You'll also want to make sure that you have premium quality canine food, treats, food bowls, a collar, a leash and a veterinarian lined up for regular check-ups.
The size of an adult Havanese can range from 8 to 11 inches in height and 7 to 13 pounds in weight. Generally speaking, the adult size can usually be determined at the time of purchase or adoption when the pup is about six months old. However, it is important to keep in mind that size can be affected by heredity and nutrition so the puppy's size could be larger or smaller than the average. Some Havanese puppies do not reach their full adult size until they are older.
Havaneses are generally a water-loving breed, and many of them love to swim. Although a Havaneses' ultimate comfort level will depend on the individual, some will take to water like a fish. In most cases, Havaneses can be taught to enjoy swimming with the right kind of positive reinforcement. While not all Havaneses will take to the water willingly, many will love the freedom they gain from swimming and may need regular access to water.
Yes, Havaneses are usually a great match for families with young children. They have an even temperament and are patient and adaptable. They are intelligent and, with training, can learn basic commands and even fun tricks quickly. Havaneses are very affectionate and form close bonds with their owners, making them great playmates for both adults and children. Since they are quite friendly, they are also naturally good with strangers and other animals.
Training a Havanese is relatively easy when you follow a few simple tips. First, create a consistent and positive environment by reinforcing the behaviors you'd like your pup to maintain when delivering treats or verbal praise. Second, use positive reinforcement when working on a new behavior, such as teaching sitting, by saying a verbal cue, giving a treat, and reinforcing the behavior with verbal praise.
