Havanese

Good to know

• Cuban companions: bred as companion dogs in Cuba, they are cheerful, people-focused and like to follow their owners from room to room.
• Silky coat options: the long, silky coat needs regular brushing to prevent mats, and owners can also keep it in a short clip or cords.
• Trainable and outgoing: smart and eager to please, they often enjoy learning tricks and doing dog sports.
• Adaptable size: moderate exercise needs suit apartments and city life, but they don't like being left alone for long periods.
• A low-shedding coat. Some people with allergies find that easier to live with, but no breed is allergen-free.
