West Highland White Terrier
Brimming with self-confidence, the wee white one is affectionate yet independent.
Height: 10 to 11 inches at shoulder
Weight: 13 to 22 pounds (males average 18 pounds, females average 15 pounds) Coat: straight and harsh Life span: 12 to 15 years Breed Group: Terriers The best way to describe this wee white terrier from Scotland is simply to say that he's so full of self-esteem that he knows he's the best thing around. Always on the lookout for a good time, he'll make you laugh while he entertains himself. He's friendly and happy, with a lively nature that endears him to everyone (except small rodents), especially when he cocks his head to the side and looks at you quizzically.
