West Highland WALTER White Terrier SCOTLAND

Greetings to Walter, an adorable 7 month old “Westie” that showed us at the photoshoot that he is not only good looking, but that he is a charming fellow too! Small but mighty, Walter’s mom Abby Nerad says he is super-fast and loves playing chase around the house, especially when she is running late! He also loves a good game of chase with his big sister Arya in the backyard and truly believes with his athleticism, he is uncatchable. However, he is happy to be caught if it’s dinner time.

Still a pup, Walter is all about PLAY. There’s never enough hours in the day to PLAY for this youngster and like most “kids”, if you don’t give them something to play with or do, they will figure out something themselves and typically it isn’t something you want them to do. Walter is no exception. His favorite pastime when mom is not paying attention…eating her shoes. Mom Abby says he can shred them in no time. Let’s hope Abby is not a connoisseur of Christian Louboutins!

But, with a face like Walter’s, who could possibly get mad at this adorable little nugget?

The West Highland White Terrier shares a history with that of the Dandie Dinmont, Skye, Scottish, and Cairn Terriers; they are all considered branches of the same breed. The West Highland White Terrier originated in Scotland and was used for hunting fox, badger, and otter and for killing vermin such as rats.
