The West Highland White Terrier is one of the most popular breeds of small dogs today. They are well-balanced and exhibit good showmanship. They have beautiful, shiny white coats and bright, button eyes, shaggy eyebrows and a black nose. They are intelligent dogs, learn quickly, love human companionship and will play indoors or out. They make excellent companions for children of all ages. They also rank the highest among terriers as a hunter of small animals.
Nancy's Westies is a hobby kennel devoted to raising loving family pets. We believe the Westie to be the perfect family companion for the following reasons.
- The Westie is a happy-go-lucky dog which takes everything within it's stride (never timid, shy, or yappy!)
- The Westie is energetic enough to keep up with multiple children.
- The Westie is a friendly, non-aggressive dog, getting along well with people, and most other animals.
- The Westie is an extremely hardy dog, which can romp with the best of them, and do well as either an inside dog or an outside dog (given the proper facilities).
- Westies don't have a shedding problem, so Mom doesn't spend all of her time vacuuming up pet hair.
- Westies are extremely intelligent and love to learn new tricks
- Westies are the perfect size -- small enough for your lap, big enough for the yard.
