How to Rescue a Havanese
Havanese dogs are beautiful and cute. However, like all dogs, Havanese can sometimes be abandoned or found in unsuitable homes. Some rescue societies are devoted to the Havanese breed. By rescuing an abandoned or mistreated Havanese, you help to promote the breed and change the life of one or more lucky dogs.
