The Westie-more formally known as the West Highland
White Terrier- is a large dog in a small package. Like all
chase vermin into their burrows and dens and kill them.
Westies enjoy all sorts of activities with their owners.
Westies only come in one color -white- although they
sometimes have tan or sandy shading on their back
and above the tail. They have a harsh outer coat that
needs regular grooming in order to keep it in shape.
They are ranked "low-dander" by the American Medical
Association (#7) and considered to be good for
people with allergies.
Westies are 10-12" tall and weigh up to 25lbs. They are
VERY sturdy for their size. They are long-lived dogs,
with the average life span being upwards of 14 years.
