About Witty and Whimsical Winston

Meet Witty and Whimsical Winston! This two-year-old Havanese is a true delight—smart, playful, and a touch independent. Winston's coat is a charming mix of black, gray, and white, resembling an exquisite work of art. He often entertains himself with toys, tossing and chasing them around like a little acrobat. Yet, he also adores cuddling on laps and cherishing quiet moments by the window, contemplating life’s big questions, like where that elusive ball went after he tossed it. This active boy enjoys long walks and outdoor adventures and is always ready for a car ride. While he may give a welcoming bark to guests, he quickly settles down to make friends. Winston knows how to sit for his food and can even open his crate with his nose, proving he’s got both brains and charm. Winston thrives in a home where he can be the sole canine companion, preferably with an active family or individual who appreciates his playful spirit and can commit to ongoing training. He prefers a yard to roam freely but no cats or small animals. His ideal adopters have experience with dogs so they can guide him as he completes his potty training. If you're in search of a delightful companion who brings joy to both the adventurous moments and the cuddle sessions, Winston is ready to create lasting memories with you!
