Just like the Maltese, Havanese is a great choice for seniors. They’re playful, loving, and a small enough breed that needs moderate amounts of exercise. They become very loyal to their owners and love spending time with them. Their fur is easy to maintain with regular brushing. Their personality is sweet and gentle in nature, not to mention, they aren’t high-strung.
