Questions & Answers
Havaneses are an intelligent toy breed that usually have a people-oriented personality. They were originally developed in Cuba as a lapdog for wealthy landowners and withstood all kinds of adverse conditions while becoming a popular breed worldwide. Fun facts about Havaneses include that they get along well with children and other pets, have an outgoing nature, and are more likely to bark when they hear a noise instead of cowering or running away. They have a playful spirit and possess a strong survival instinct that compels them to search out new experiences.
Managing allergies with Havaneses can be done with a few proactive steps. The primary course of action is to be aware of the most common allergens that Havaneses are typically exposed to. This includes foods, chemicals, and environmental conditions. It is then possible to minimize exposure and help eliminate symptoms. It's important to also keep the Havaneses' living environment as clean and dust-free as possible. Regularly grooming your Havaneses can also help prevent allergies by trapping allergens like pollen, dust, and dander before they become airborne.
Feeding your Havanese is an important task in order to keep your pup healthy and happy. Start by offering high-quality food that has a balance of protein, fat, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. You should also make sure that the food you offer is appropriate for your dog's age, size, and level of activity. To make sure your Havanese has a variety of flavors and textures, feed them a combination of wet and dry food. Additionally, it's important to prioritize the type of ingredients in your pup's meals.
Before getting a Havanese, some essential items to buy include food and water bowls, a comfortable bed, suitable toys, and an identification tag with your contact information. Additionally, it is advisable to have a collar and leash for walks and trips to the vet, while investing in a good grooming and/or clippers is also worthwhile. Lastly, Havanese's are known for their love of treats, so make sure to stock up on some treats for training, rewards, and rewards-based games.
Havaneses come in a variety of sizes dependent on factors such as age, gender, and bloodline. Generally speaking, adult Havaneses stand between 9.5 and 11.5 inches high and weigh in around seven to twelve pounds. Though rarely you can find larger Havaneses, most tend to be on the smaller side of this range. Puppies, being significantly smaller, typically measure between 7 and 9 inches high and weigh three to five pounds when fully grown. Thus, potential owners should plan accordingly and research expected size and weight prior to purchase of a puppy.
Regular exercise is important for Havaneses of all sizes and activity levels, but the exact amount depends on individual pet's needs. An adult Havaneses should receive at least 30 minutes of exercise everyday, while puppies need up to 20 minutes or more depending on their age. Exercise doesn't necessarily have to be an intense activity, Havaneses can benefit from shorter bursts of activity throughout the day, including activities like fetch in the yard, walking the dog, agility play, or swimming.
Yes, Havaneses usually get along well with other pets, especially if proper socialization and training have taken place. They are very affectionate and social dogs, so if given the chance they will become friends with most other animals. With that said, any interaction between Havaneses and other pets should always be supervised, and it's important to introduce Havaneses to other animals slowly and in a controlled environment. That way, a strong bond between the Havaneses and the other animals can develop.
Training a Havanese is definitely doable, but it can be tricky. As with any breed of dog, gaining their trust is an important part of training. An owner should take the time to show the Havanese respect to help create a trusting bond and allowing your Havanese to feel safe and comfortable. Once there is a bond formed, the owner can then start basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, come or ‘no’. Many Havanese may be food motivated, so using treats is a great way to encourage good behavior.
