Adopting a Havanese

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Havanese - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Havanese at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Havanese is around $300, which covers the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Havanese from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,500.

The easiest way to adopt a Havanese would be through a rescue that specializes in Havaneses. A great place to start would be by starting a breed search on Adopt-a-Pet.com. The search will show you all the available Havaneses in your area.

Havanese fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Havanese is the national dog of Cuba, and also happens to be the country's only existing native breed.

Havanese are sometimes lovingly referred to as "Velcro Dogs" for the way they become so lovingly attached to their owners.

A 2017 study conducted by the Kennel Club found that out of a handful of breeds, the Havanese were the breed that did the best job of alleviating stress levels in humans.
