About Duke

About Havanese Dogs

Havanese are cheerful, social little dogs that were bred to be companions - and they excel at it. Their silky coats, expressive dark eyes, and springy gait give them an irresistible charm. They're naturally outgoing and love meeting new people and animals.

Adopting a Havanese means welcoming a velcro dog who wants to be wherever you are. They're excellent with children, friendly with other pets, and their hypoallergenic coat makes them suitable for allergy-sensitive homes. Their adaptable, easygoing nature makes them wonderful for first-time dog owners.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

25°F to 40°F

Dec – Feb

Philly winters bring cold temperatures, snow, and icy sidewalks treated with salt. Protect your pet’s paws with booties or wax, and wipe them down after walks. Fairmount Park and the Schuylkill River Trail are still accessible but can be slippery after storms.

Spring

40°F to 68°F

Mar – May

Spring cherry blossoms along the Schuylkill River make for beautiful walks with your pet. Temperatures gradually warm through the season, and parks come alive with activity. Watch for seasonal allergies in pets as pollen levels rise in April and May.

Summer

68°F to 88°F

Jun – Aug

Hot, humid summers in Philly call for shade and hydration on walks through the city. Avoid midday pavement and stick to shaded trails in Wissahickon Valley Park. Carry water for your pet and take breaks in the shade during longer outings.
