Description
Dog Breed: Havanese. Adoption Fee: $400. Maddie is a cute little Havanese in search of her forever family. She was so terrified when she first arrived to rescue but is starting to figure out that life outside of a breeding kennel/facility can be pretty amazing. She mingles so well with the other dogs in her foster home and would likely not know what to do without them. She is working hard on her house and crate training. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Physically fenced in yard to keep her safe - no invisible fences. Resident dog to help show her the ropes and boost her confidence. *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they generally require extra time to settle in and acclimate. Skills like house training, leash walking, and mastering stairs may require a little extra practice. However, with understanding, patience, and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly.

Overview:
The Havanese, the national dog of Cuba, is a charming and intelligent toy breed known for its cheerful disposition and luxurious coat. Descending from the Bichon family, these small but sturdy dogs were brought to Cuba by Spanish colonists and developed into the affectionate companions we know today. Physically, they boast a distinctive long, silky double coat that can come in a multitude of colors and patterns, often requiring regular grooming to prevent matting. With their expressive dark eyes and plumed tail carried over their back, Havanese possess a captivating charm. Temperamentally, they are renowned for being outgoing, affectionate, and highly trainable, thriving on human companionship. This makes them excellent family pets and well-suited for apartment living, as they are adaptable and don't require extensive outdoor space. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of breed-specific concerns such as luxating patellas and eye conditions like cataracts, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups essential for their long-term well-being.
