He loves car rides and flirting with the girls. When the girls talk him into it, none of them can catch him at the classic run like hell game except Spice.

More Insight

Kat is our oldest male Havanese. His favourite summer sport is leaping into the swimming pool with his human daddy, me. As he is in full long flowing show coat it can be a chore after the fact to groom him but who could deny him. He loves it so much. Kat has completed 4 levels of Obedience courses, (the type of Obedience courses you should take) flunked out of Agility because his daddy, me again, couldn't keep up with him and we simply saw too many injuries in competition to make us think twice and finally last July, he entered his first Conformation show ring. The second time he was shown he not only won breed but got a Group 2. The third time he showed he won the Toy group and competed for Best in Show following in the footsteps of his own sire, one of the great Havanese champions of his generation and indeed of the past 10 years, Buster, AM CDN MEX and FCI Int'l Champion Starkette Pride of Wincroft. Once Kat's show career was over he and I will got back to getting serious about perfecting his skills in the pool. He used his tail to navigate. By the end of each summer he had a muscle toned body. I think he's quite good at it and I might be able to keep up.
