Havachon
Bichon Frise / Havanese Hybrid
The Havachon is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between the
Bichon Frise and the
Havanese. The best way to
determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross
and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in
either breed. This hybrid cross is recognized by the American Canine Hybrid
Club. Not all of these designer hybrid dogs
being bred are 50% purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to
breed multi-generation crosses.

"This is Max, a male Havanese / Bichon hybrid puppy. From the start, Max loves to have his picture taken. He was quick to learn to "sit". He took to our black lab, Gabe, and they quickly became friends. Gabe is a patient lab, thank goodness, because Max is all over him, chewing on his tail, his feet, whatever he can reach.
Max is happy and lively as any puppy is. I'm a quiet-natured retired woman, so I am playing with Max gently, encouraging gentle play. I keep chew toys nearby and when he chews on my fingers and toes, I simply remove my fingers and toes from his reach and give him a toy. He seems to be satisfied as long as he has something to chew on. When his natural play behavior becomes too aggressive, we go for walks/runs to work off a little energy. He loves it outdoors.
Max loves my grandchildren, primarily the 3 year old and the 6 year old girls. He loves to chase and gets just as excited as the kids. He has discovered that is fun to nip at toes and fingers to see them dance, so my challenge is to train the grandchildren to play without so much excitement.
Potty training is a big challenge. Especially, now that it's raining and freezing outside. Neither one of us want to be in those nasty elements. I've tried to introduce the pee pad to him, but he has taken it on as a personal challenge to pee anywhere but on the dreaded pad. I read about crate training on your site and may try that. I put him in the crate at night and during the day when I am too busy to keep an eye on him (I like naps, too!). So far, he has not given me any problems."
