About Havanese-Shih Tzus
The Havanese-Shih Tzu is known for being very intelligent, loving, and playful, often prone to acting silly or goofy. They absolutely thrive on family interaction and will follow members of the household around to watch them. Best suited to homes with at least one person home at most times, the Havanese-Shih Tzu is a prime candidate for separation anxiety. Training may need professional help, as the Havashu is known to have a bit of a stubborn streak.
The Havanese-Shih Tzu has a long and silky coat that will require daily brushing to keep it free of debris, tangles, and mats. A monthly bath with a quality shampoo will also help the coat stay healthy. Keep the ears clean as well. Like all small dogs, they are prone to bad teeth and will need regular cleaning.
Origin of the Havanese-Shih Tzu
The Havanese-Shih Tzu or Havashu does not have a definitive origin but is most likely the result of the designer dog fad that engulfed the US, beginning in the early 1990s.
