The Differences between a Havanese and a Havana Silk

There seems to be a lot of confusion about the differences between a Havanese and a Havana Silk.  Because of this I have decided to dedicate an entire page just to this subject.  It is my intention to be concise regarding information on both sides. 

The truth is both the Havanese and the Havana Silks share the same heritage, both come from the same small gene pool of dogs.  In fact, at one point all Havana Silk Dogs were registered as Havanese.  In 2007 a small group of breeders broke off from the Havanese and started the Havana Silk Dog Association of America (HSDAA).
