Questions & Answers
Havaneses are considered a toy breed and are part of the Bichon family. They are also known as the Cuban Bichon or Bichon Habanero and were initially bred to be lapdogs. Their small size gives them their characteristic "toy" look, as they only weigh between 7 and 13 lbs and usually reach a height of 8 to 11 inches. The Havana breed is a hypoallergenic breed that is low shedding, making them popular with families with allergies or who have limited space.
Havaneses are one of the breeds of dogs considered to be non-shedding. This means that that, instead of shedding their fur all over the house, they produce less dander and their fur stays on their coat. It also means that there is less fur lying around to clean up. There is some shedding but it is significantly less than with some other dog breeds. Compared to other non-shedding breeds, such as Poodles, the Havaneses is an attractive choice because their coats grow less than other breeds.
Finding the best dog food for your Havanese may depend on your pup's individual dietary needs, but there are a few brands that make great food specifically designed for Havanese dogs. Some of the top-rated dog food for Havaneses tend to be a natural formula made with wholesome, high-quality ingredients such as fresh vegetables, whole grains, real meat or fish proteins, and a variety of vitamins and minerals. It's also important for Havaneses to eat food that's low in sugar and sodium to keep their coats, skin, and teeth healthy.
Havanese, like all breeds, have certain requirements to ensure their health and wellbeing. This includes regular grooming, proper nutrition, and adequate exercise. Along with these standards, Havanese may need to participate in obedience training; this breed has a reputation for being independent, so proper training can help keep your pet on the right track. Additionally, Havanese may be prone to certain genetic health problems, so it's important to work with a veterinarian to monitor your pet's health and keep up with regular preventative treatments.
Havanese dogs come in a variety of sizes—Toys, Tiny Toys, Miniatures, and Standard. Toy size Havanese are 9-10 inches in height, Tiny Toy Havaneses are usually 8-9 inches, Miniatures are 11-12 inches, and Standards range between 13-15 inches. Additionally, all sizes usually have similarly proportional, low-set ears, round eyes, black lips, and a black nose. Although size can greatly vary, all sizes of Havanese dogs will typically weigh somewhere between 7 and 13 pounds when fully grown.
Havaneses are an active and intelligent breed. They require regular daily exercise to remain healthy and happy. Depending on the individual dog's age, health, and natural activity level, the amount of exercise required can vary. Generally, Havaneses need at least forty-five minutes of exercise each day. This includes long leash walks, running, and time spent playing and exploring in a secure outdoor area. If possible, Havaneses benefit from periods of off-leash activities twice a week for vigorous and mentally-stimulating exercise such as playing catch or a game of friction tag.
Yes, Havaneses typically get along very well with children. They are naturally outgoing and friendly, and they form strong bonds with family members. Their outgoing nature also means that they are usually excellent with other people, like children, and can even take care of younger kids they encounter. These traits make Havaneses excellent family pets that can be a trusted caretaker when it comes to kids. Havaneses often show great patience and understanding when it comes to children, and they love to learn and interact with them in playtime.
Training a Havanese can be relatively simple, but it will depend upon the individual dog's personality and temperament, as well as the consistency of the trainer or household. Havanese are naturally intelligent and eager to please their owners, which means they tend to have an innate willingness to learn. However, they also have a tendency towards being independent and need a firm, assertive hand from the trainer. Positive reinforcement tends to work best, and the more time spent actively training your Havanese – as well as giving them enough attention – the more successful they are likely to be.
