westie care
Health:
The average Westie lives to 12 to 14 years.
They are genetically susceptible dermatitis and other skin conditions; luxating patella, a problem with the knee caps; fibrosis in the lungs.
If you have a Westie, ask your vet about regular health screening.
Grooming:
Westies are particularly light shedders with low-maintenance coats.
The tough outercoat repels dirt; the undercoat should be combed regularly.
These dogs do require occasional haircuts.
Keep your Westie looking beautiful and photogenic and your friend may want to paint a portrait or
do a pencil drawing of your Westie: -
