Mantel

West Highland White Terrier coat

Westie’s coat is about two inches long, white in color, hard, with plenty of soft undercoat. The dog should be neatly presented, the longer coat on the back and sides, trimmed to blend into the shorter neck and shoulder coat. Considerable hair is left around the head to act as a frame for the face to yield a typical Westie expression.

Gesundheitsprobleme

This breed is fairly healthy. They are occasionally susceptible to patellar luxation, skin problems, hernias and liver disease. There may have some problem with cranio mandibular osteopathy (lion jaw), deafness and congenital heart disease. Any of these should be diagnosed under regular vet visits. Dogs are very active indoors and will do okay without a yard. They love the companionship of humans and other dogs. To minimize the risk of your Westie developing any hereditary health issues, you should buy a puppy from a reputable West Highland White Terrier breeder.

Lebensumfeld

Lebensumfeld

Environment in a town, city or country may all be equally suitable for a West Highland White Terrier. A home without a yard is acceptable since it is quite active indoors. However, it will appreciate the outdoors to dig as they are essentially earth dogs. A Westie does not require a huge amount of exercise but opportunities for boredom should be avoided as it is usually the cause for the dog to create trouble. Being earth dogs, they do like to dig. A regular walk or playtime in the park would be quite beneficial to the dog.
