The West Highland White Terrier originally hunted fox and otter in his native Scotland, where his tremendous stamina, courage and agility stood him in good stead for dealing with the rugged Scottish terrain. His harsh double coat protected him against the teeth of his foes, as well as the climate, while his white jacket ensured that he was easily distinguishable.

The West Highland White Terrier is the perfect dog for the man who likes Terriers but feels that some are perhaps a little volatile. The "Westie's" appealing expression, devoted nature, cheeky ways and handy size, on the other hand, are guaranteed to endear him to the lady of the house. Similarly, he is always a hit with children, with whom he is ever ready for a romp or an energetic game of ball. In fact, the West Highland White Terrier makes an amusing companion and perfect housedog for just about anybody.

All Terrier, with a large amount of self-esteem and Scottish spunk, determination and devotion crammed into a small body, the West Highland White is a fun dog to own. He is suited to either town or country living.
