The past tense of have is "had":

"I have a dog now."

"I had a dog a long time ago."

Do not confuse this with "have had", which describes a continuing condition:

"I have had a dog for five years."

The correct tense depends on what you are saying. Some examples using have as the main verb:

present simple - I have a new car. She has a new car. ( has is the third person singular form of have.)

past simple - I had a good holiday.

present continuous - I am having a good time.

past continuous - I was having a bad day.

present perfect - I have had a great holiday.

past perfect - I had had a bad day and was feeling sorry for myself.

will future - I will have a good holiday.

going to future - I am going to have a party next week.
