Hello My Name Is Windy I am a cute, spayed,
adult, female Westie. I came to Westie Rescue
because my original owners thought it would
be better for me to be placed with another family
which understood my stubborn Westie temperament.
I am a 'Westie Princess' and have pretty much
gotten my own way most of my life. That of course
isn't a problem for me.......but I guess it
causes problems with the 'two legged' people
in 'MY' house. Although I am a graduate of obedience
and puppy kindergarten training, my owners had
a hard time reinforcing that level of training.
I can be excitable when a motor scooter, skateboarder,
bicyclist goes past. If I am on a walk, I will
'heel and set' on command......if you are quick
in giving those commands.
I am up to date with my shots, do not have skin
problems, love to ride in the car, lounge on
the bed (my owner's of course!!!) and take walks.
I need to be placed in a home that has the time
and discipline necessary to insure my adherence
to obedience. I can bark (okay, I am a terrier
you know) at trash trucks, loud noises and am
not really fond of the Fourth of July activities.
I also hate my front toenails to be cut! So
the groomer needs to know that little detail.
The ideal home would be a calm retired couple,
or single person (no small children) that has
owned a terrier or better yet a Westie prior.
A home that has patience in reinforcement of
training and trust issues. They must be consistent
and caring in their approach. Wendy does have
a mind of her own, but will eventually do what
you want her to do........just in 'Terr-ior
Time' not necessarily your time schedule......don't
ya just love them!!!!! Can I come sleep on your
pillow????
