Description
Dog Breed: Havanese (medium coat). Meet Dwight NJ, reporting for duty! I'm a 2 1/2 year old, 14 lb tiny, timid pup trying my absolute best, thank you very much. I know I’m misunderstood. I get it. I’m not the dog who bursts into the room like “HI NEW FRIEND!!!” I’m more of a “I’ll watch you from a safe distance” type. But once I decide you’re my person? Ohhh, prepare for the cuddles. Premium-grade, and follow-you-around-the-house type of cuddles. Let’s get the essentials out of the way: I’m crate-trained I’m spectacular in the car—chauffeur me wherever, I won’t complain. Low activity is my brand. Zoomies? I don’t know her. I prefer my little blankies like the dignified gentleman I am. Stairs? Hard pass. I believe gravity is a scam. Affectionate lap pet? Oh yes. I will become one with your lap. Picky eater? I prefer “culinary connoisseur.” Chicken only, please. I’m very friendly with my foster pittie sister, Akela. She’s cool, calm, and doesn’t judge my quirks, so we vibe. With new humans, I’m shy at first but given time (and chicken), I warm up and show my true mushy side. I really don’t have a bad bone in my tiny body. I just need someone who understands that patience is key. I’m also a man of… certain bathroom preferences. I wear my little male wrap with pride. Outdoors? For potty? The math isn’t mathing for me yet. But hey — I’m trying. If you’re patient, gentle, and appreciate a soft-hearted shadow who adores you once he feels safe, I promise I will love you with my whole timid, loyal soul. I’m neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for a forever home with someone kind enough to meet me where I am. Adoption fee: $415 which is honestly a steal for a premium snuggle companion like me. So apply at ehrdogs and ask for DWIGHT NJ!

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.
