Havanese Breed Info

The Havanese is a small, silky-coated companion dog with a lively personality and a heart full of affection. Known for its cheerful expression and people-loving nature, this breed was made to be by your side—whether it’s during a morning walk, a lazy afternoon, or a quiet night in. Originally bred as a companion for Cuban aristocracy, the Havanese has kept its close connection to people throughout history. 

Everything about this breed is designed for companionship. Havanese are naturally social and thrive in homes where they’re included in everyday life. They’re the kind of dog that watches what you’re doing, follows you from room to room, and gently nudges your hand when they’re ready for some attention. Their size and temperament make them a natural fit for apartments, family homes, and even first-time dog owners. 

With their soft, flowing coat, expressive eyes, and spirited charm, Havanese bring a playful energy that doesn’t overwhelm. They’re gentle with kids, friendly with strangers, and eager to be part of whatever’s going on. Their balanced personality—calm, curious, and consistently affectionate—makes them one of the most lovable companion breeds around.
