The Havanese Dog and his FamilyThis is a featured page

The Havanese dog is a breed that came back from a crisis in the last century to become a popular family pet today. This dog is especially popular in the United States, with some breeders still charging up to $1000 for a pup, despite the fact that the Havanese dog is becoming more readily available today. The reason for their popularity is mainly in their personality: Havanese are fiercely loyal, eternally playful and consistently cute entertainers. This makes them a good choice as a family pet for many families, including those with children and other animals in the house. These dogs are also quite brave, despite their small size, and can make excellent watch dogs. One of the best things about this breed is the fact that they never seem to lose their zest for life that they have as puppies. You will rarely see a grumpy adult Havanese dog, but you are likely to see one that is always ready to play.
Intelligent, submissive and eager to please his master. These characteristics are typical in the Havanese breed, which makes it easy t train most of the time. However, housebreaking a Havanese can be a more challenging process than with other types of breeds. Most breeders and Havanese owners will advise someone purchasing a Havanese puppy to allow plenty of time and patience to complete the housebreaking routine. One reason is because Havanese pups do not always leash train well, meaning they may not complete their "business" when enjoying a walk with you. If you are having a hard time getting your Havanese pup housebroken, one method that has worked with some Havanese owners is the use of a litter box that is designed for use with toy dog breeds. Do not ever use regular cat litter in your dog’s box, since he could eat it and get sick. Instead, you can use a hard, cylindrical paper pellet that will actually attract your dog to his box. It is also important to make sure that you spend plenty of time with your puppy, since a lonely dog can easily turn into a chewing dog.
If you are thinking about a new family pet, the Havanese dog can be a great choice for your family. With energy to spare and an intelligent, eager personality, you will find the Havanese to be fairly easy to train and plenty of fun to play with. This dog usually comes with a sweet, gentle temperament that makes him a loyal and loveable pet. However, don’t let his docile nature fool you, because a Havanese can also make a pretty fierce watch dog, at least with the amount of noise he can produce at the possibility of a stranger approaching. These dogs are not afraid of much, and are always ready to protect their families. If you believe that a Havanese dog might be the right breed for your next family pet, your next step will be to find a responsible, reputable Havanese breeder that an offer you a puppy that will be healthy and bred in the proper way. You can also continue to research the Havanese breed and gather as much information as possible to assist in your selection and care of your new pup.
