The Havanese is a Bichon, which is a breed of dog with a special characteristic that prevents them from being able to shed. Though it is a toy dog, the Havanese is a very sturdy and appears less fragile than other dogs of the same class. Havanese puppies were brought to the continents from sailors of Cuba and Spain after spreading them to the Canary Islands. Havanese puppies are typically bred as therapy and assistance dogs because of their kind and gentle nature. They are also very accomplished sport dogs, excelling in agility and obedience training. The Havanese is rarely a solid coat of white, but more often coated with light blotches of black or soft brown. The coat of their fur is very soft and is considered to be hypoallergenic, though it does release dander. From birth, Havanese puppies are likely to become rather attached to their owner and family and are very gentle and respective of young children. Harsh punishment is very rarely effective or necessary with this breed. Because of their very small background of genetics, consisting of a pool of only 11 dogs, Havanese enthusiasts and organizations are on the lookout for problems that may disrupt the otherwise healthy breed. The only known health issue that bothers this particular breed is the eventual diagnosis of cataracts.

The Maltese—named after their country of origin: the Island of Malta—is also a part of the Bichon family. Unlike the Havanese, the Maltese are known to bark or yip and sometimes scratch lightly or bite at ankles. Though they do not bark excessively, they are a breed of dog that tends to be more alert and louder against sounds in the night. Maltese puppies are born so small as to sometimes fit in the palm of your hand, and even at full growth can weigh only 5 pounds. Their coat is silky and long, absent of an undercoat. The Maltese nose is often to faint in sunlight, giving it the nickname of a “winter nose,” where it would turn light brown or pink. The eyes of the Maltese puppy is bordered by a darker pigment of skin, commonly referred to as the “halo,” giving the Maltese a very expressive look. The Maltese may sometimes develop darkened hair around the eyes (referred to as “tear staining”) that is often a problem in grooming. Tear staining is most effectively taken care of using a fine-toothed comb and warm water. This particular breed is also often crossbred with Pugs, Shih Tzus, and Cocker Spaniels
