About West Highland White Terriers

When it comes to spunk, these adorable little terriers have it in abundance! The West Highland White Terrier dog breed originated in Scotland - first developed by the Malcolm family - either from a mix of popular terrier breeds or as a "cast-off" of the Cairn Terrier dog. These "tiny terrors" were originally used to hunt otter and fox, and always enjoy chasing the odd cat or rabbit. Self-reliant and spirited, Westie dogs make good family pets. They are tenacious, bold and loyal, making good watch dogs. West Highland White Terriers have a pure white double coat and black eyes, nose, paws and toenails. Westies require daily brushing and plenty of exercise.

Thinking of adding a Westie puppy to your family? They love to play and do well in families with well-behaved children - either rural or suburban. But be warned... Westies love to dig!
