Crate training benefits every dog and is a kind way to ensure that your Westie doesn't have accidents in the house or get into things he shouldn't. A crate is also a place where he can retreat for a nap. Crate training at a young age will help your Westie accept confinement if he ever needs to be boarded or hospitalized. Never stick your Westie in a crate all day long, however. It's not a jail, and he shouldn't spend more than a few hours at a time in it except when he's sleeping at night.

Some Westies like to swim, but they should be supervised at all times while doing so--they're not as at home in the water as many of their canine cousins.

Dog Food Commercial

Have you seen the dog food commercial with the West Highland White Terrier? It is adorable! I don't even know what brand of dog food they are selling. LOL!
