How to groom a Westie
Ann | October 28th, 2009
The West Highland white terrier, fondly known as the Westie, is a dog of exhibiting self-confidence and feels that he is the life of any party. The dog was originally bred for chasing and hunting down vermin but nowadays they are fierce competitors in agility and obedience competitions as well as search and rescue dogs by some units. Having a distinctive white coat of wavy and medium length, they are also used as mascots for different products.
Westies have double coats: a top coat of 2 inches in length and a short undercoat. It is pretty simple to groom a Westie, just brush regularly will do. Trimming may be done to the owner’s wishes and stripping may be done twice a year. Hairs on the feet are often trimmed because they can pick up dirt and hair on the face is plucked to give it a pleasant shape. To keep its shine, just wipe the coat down with a damp cloth.
