The Havanese are great companion dogs who do well in apartment living. They're highly intelligence, great with children, and comfortable around other pets and strangers. They will bark as a stranger arrives, but should not continue barking as some of the other Toy breeds will do. They can exercise in the house, but a nice walk would be appreciated. Havanese are very close to their owners and want to be a recognized part of their owner's life. Their long coats need to be brushed at least twice a week, and the ears need to be kept clean. They do not shed and are good if you have allergies.
