I am a 3 1/2 year old female whose birthday
is 10/06/98. My loving and pampering original
owner died after she purchased me and my friend,
a Scottie, from a pet store. I liked her very
much, and she loved me too. After her death,
I was sold by relatives to another family. My
friend from puppy hood was a Scottie and they
purchased her too. But I became jealous of the
extra attention which she got at the new home
and became very protective of my food dish,
toys and treats. I only stayed in the second
home for 9 months.....they said dogs where too
expensive and they had too many things going
on in their lives to care for two small dogs.
So I was again sold to another family, via the
internet this time. I was only kept for three
days at this house, they didn't do their homework
on Terriers prior to deciding on the breed....something
about trying to kill the son's Hamster did me
in. Gosh, I thought that was what I was bred
to do!!!!! Oh, well, now I am in a foster home,
with other Westies...darn it! My foster Mom
thinks that I would be better in a one doggie
family....I think she means only me, and I do
really like my 'one-on-one' attention. I have
food bowl issues, will growl at other dogs trying
to get my treats and/or toys. So yep, I would
do much better in a one doggie home. I sleep
in a crate at night, will have all my shots
when placed (I wasn't up to date), will hopefully
have a better haircut to show my sweet face
and sole full eyes. I will also be spayed, which
I currently am not. Brother, they take away
a girl's fun!!!! I walk on a leash very well,
I like to walk fast, I can use a doggie door
and am house trained too. I do have a problem,
as I like to jump onto things......chairs, tables,
dressers.....shoot I might be missing something
by staying on the ground! I also chase cats,
so I can't have one for my very own. This dog
when placed will have all routine shots, rabies,
be currently spayed and have a better hair cut!!!!
My foster Mom wanted to add her two bits about
that. Something about being a beauty queen in
waiting.....whatever! Please let me come and
stay with you forever and ever. This dog should
be on the special
Westie Diet for the remainder of her life.
She has had skin problems in the past, primarily
because she was an outside dog and flea production
was minimal....until recently. In my foster
home, I have my very own inside, air conditioned
clean crate with toys too!
