Considering buying a Westie

POPPYOSCAR

Alison. Our Westies will eat anything so we don't have your problem.They used to go nuts around the guinea pig especially when we put him in the run but we have trained them to leave him alone and now they take no notice.It did used to cost quite a lot for grooming but we discovered that the local college do it for £10.00 and they do a good job, we leave them around 9.00am and collect them at 12.00 or leave them at 1.00 and collect at 4.00.They tend to take the same breed on the same day and I love seeing all the others there.(Once my other half told them they had given us the wrong dogs back for a joke, and they believed him!!!!)

Oh gawd, that actually happened not long ago didnt it.

I dont like mine being groomed. I think if I didnt know the girl personally - she does rescue work - Id sit there for the whole time watching my border terrier being groomed. I have heard too many worrying stories.

What does everyone else feed their Westies? We have trouble getting her to eat. She will eat things like fresh chicken, steak etc but leaves her biscuits. For breakfast she has fresh chicken and rice and for tea she has chicken and James Well Beloved biscuits which she spits out and leaves.

We use Naturediet.
