The Havanese in the United States today are direct descendants from one of the Bichon groups originating in the Mediterranean area. There are several distinct groups of Bichon thought to have come from the Teneriffe (Bichon Frise), including the Bichon Maltiase (Maltese), the Bichon Havanais (Havanese), the Lowchen Bichon, Coton de Teulear and the Bichon Bolognese. These groups are still recognized by the F.C.I. and many other European kennel clubs.These little dogs are alert,and quick to understand what is expected of them. They possess a charming and loveable personality. They have an alert and lively expression.

Löwchen are referred to in words and photos as far back as the mid-14th century. The breed is quite possibly from Germany, although for many years it was believed to have its origin in the Mediterranean.
The Löwchen has been a distinct breed for more than 400 years. The breed nearly disappeared in the 19th century, but tireless efforts by Madam Bennert, a Belgian breeder, ensured the Löwchen's continued existence.
A small, bright and lively dog, the Löwchen is a companion breed of great style. The breed's name translates from the German as "little lion." The breed has twice appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records - once as the most expensive dog in the world and once as the rarest dog in the world.

All colours or combinations of colours are accepted. All patterns of white are found as well as Lowchen with no white at all. And to keep things interesting, most, but not all, Lowchen tend to change colors over the first few years fading and then darkening back up to a new shade
