Arrival Story:
After a lot of reading about Westie's and making sure we could offer one a good life, we set out one Saturday with a list of breeders within an hours drive. The first place was not a breeder, they had a pen of Westie pups, 2 Yorkie's and a baby Golden. The parents were not on site and when the "breeder" showed up, she didn't even glance at me or my husband. I was told that a breeder should have as much, if not more, interest in you that you do in the pup. Additionally, the pups had poopy stains on their bottoms and their eye's were runny. We had to drag each other away because we knew that even if we "saved" one, the breeder would just keep doing breeding more. Soooo...We went up to the country and found our little Madigan at a horse farm where the dam and sire were running around, the 2 pups left were in the house, playing with the children and they were healthy! We think our little girl was the runt because at 11 months, she still only weighs 13 pounds...Perfect for us! We brought her home where she met her brother, the cat, and made herself at home!
