Havanese Dog

Cuban Import Makes Ideal Family Pet

You may have seen a Havanese dog, prancing along with its tell-tale springy gait and long-haired coat that camouflages it as a wiggling furball, and not have known exactly what type of breed it was.

Once difficult to breed in countries other than Cuba, the relatively little-known Havanese is now one of the fastest-growing dog breeds in the United States—and a very popular family addition.

As with any pet, be sure to regularly consult a veterinarian for routine care and medical advice for your four-legged friend.
