Westies

Meet Captain Jack

2011-04-21T09:29:00.000-07:00

Captain Jack is the newest member of my pack. He had an infection in one eye that his breeder didn't catch in time to prevent all damage, but otherwise he is just perfect.

Mimi has the yellow bow and Sugar usually has white but I couldn't find a white ribbon so she borrowed Sophie's red one Mimi is too busy to get her picture taken and Sugar likes the spotlight!

FUN!

She will make a
great mom someday!

our angel Violet Claire

too little to climb
up the step.

Angel's Debut

Both eyes are now open
So cute
Angel has beautiful
black pigmentation

Roxy

2010-08-02T23:19:00.000-07:00

Roxy gave birth on the 28th of July to a beautiful little girl. I was hoping for more but it just didn''t happen. THAT'S LIFE!

Roxy

2010-05-23T09:40:00.000-07:00

It's been a while since we have had puppies but this weekend Roxy went to the breeder so she should be expecting in July.
Roxy is about 18 pounds (I know just a little fat she is normally only 15 pounds) and her stud is only 10 pounds. Just a little guy but they say small things come in great packages!

Roxy

2009-06-26T08:43:00.000-07:00

Roxy was too close to the
stove when a pot boiled
over and hit her nose.
She is fine but it did take
the pigment of the top of
her nose.

Lesson---Keep the doggies
out of the kitchen if you can.

Tessa's boy Zipper

2009-05-15T19:38:00.001-07:00

Antonio sent me these pictures of Zipper who s one of Tessa's boys from her last litter. Zipper appears to be one spoiled little boy! That's the way it should be---Thanks for the pictures Antonio!

Tessa Rose

2009-03-07T19:23:00.000-08:00

New pictures taken today
After her bath.

Such a pretty face!!!!
Tessa is s-oooooo kissable.

Tessa

2009-02-27T19:57:00.000-08:00

Tessa is now 2 and a half years old. The diaper is because she is in heat Not because she has a problem. She had puppies on her last heat, GREAT MOM but needs to rest.

The is Tessa at two years old before I started learning to hand strip a Westie. Her hair isn't super thich but is very long.

As you can see I still have a lot of learning on the grooming. Her hair is a bit too curly and very cottony. Probably is better suited for clipping rather than stripping. Obviously not a show dog but v-e-r-y cute.

Here she is a little younger. No matter what age she is a Beauty Queen!

Moe, Tessa.and Roxy

Dog Show

2009-01-28T20:32:00.000-08:00

Went to the Rose Classic Dog Show a week ago, not a lot of Westies there but those there were s-o-o-o cute

Sparky Spike

2009-01-23T10:09:00.000-08:00

Sweet Spike is a typical independent Westie. I should have taken pictures in progression but didn't think of it until today. I am learning the art of hand stripping a Westie coat and have bee working on Spike for a couple of weeks. I know he still needs a lot of work but he already looks so much better. He just has that funny floppy ear---to bad I cannot groom it away. Oh well! the ears is cute anyway.

Jonah

Jonah and new best buddy Elvis Happy together!

and Spike Loves it.

It's more fun on
the picnic table!

Roxy

2008-12-17T11:36:00.000-08:00

Roxy was just sitting
on the sofa deep in
thought this morning,
wish I knew what she
was thinking as she sat
and stared at nothing.

Ema 8 weeks

2008-12-10T08:42:00.000-08:00

Ema is the strong silent type
"don't touch me I'm busy"

Frankie 8 weeks

2008-12-10T08:35:00.000-08:00

Zoi 7 weeks

I'm almost a big girl now
my ears are almost up.

Ema 7 weeks

2008-12-01T10:59:00.000-08:00

Everyone thinks I'm sweet
but sometimes I like to be
left alone.

Lilly 7 weeks

2008-12-01T10:53:00.000-08:00

How embarrassing!
Not only out of focus
but this perspective
makes me look fat. I'm
really not this fat nor is
my nose as big as it looks.

Ogi 7 weeks

2008-12-01T10:44:00.000-08:00

ears are about to take
their stand.

Just hold me, love me,
and play with me all the
time but please don't
leave me alone.

Our Bed

2008-11-30T22:31:00.000-08:00

My apologies to all of you!
This week has been so hectic I did not get new pictures of the kids posted by tonight like I said I would.
I thought I would click a picture of all of them sleeping but they are quick. Before I can adjust the camera the are at my feet wanting some attention. Here's a quick pic of the not so quick ones. There are 2 large crates in the room but they all like sleeping together.
It's A Slumber Party Every Day!

Tear Stains

2008-11-23T00:44:00.000-08:00

To all of you following the pictures of my Westies I thought I would include some info on tear staining and what causes it. The following link is an advertisement for one of the products my vet suggested www.angelsglow.com Try to ignore the sales hype and click on frequently asked questions the info is good.
I have tried a couple of topical product but find them ineffective. I started using this product today but if it works it takes time. My vet seemed convinced that in my puppies case the cause is stress related suggesting I might have mixed the two litters together a little too soon as I did it just as they were starting to wean and cutting teeth. At any rate the problem should correct itself after they settle in their new homes long enough for new hair to grow in to replaced the stained hair.

Ogi

2008-11-23T00:39:00.000-08:00

Guess what!
I had both ears
up for about 30
seconds yesterday.

By the way I dig
the name Milo.

Lilly 6 weeks

2008-11-23T00:30:00.000-08:00

I don't really look like
one of those short
legged wiener dogs.
It's all prospective.

Jonah 6 weeks

2008-11-23T00:16:00.000-08:00

I know yesterday I said
I was looking for a
forever home but today
Frankie and I traded
places. So take a look at
him, he's a real cool guy.

Harley 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:57:00.000-08:00

Hey Nicole,
sorry my picture
is not focused well
this time. Hope all
is well with you.

Harley

Willie 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:47:00.000-08:00

Every once in a while
I can hold one ear all
the way up for a little
while.

Ema 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:39:00.000-08:00

Very playful
but not rowdy.

Micah 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:32:00.000-08:00

I'm a sensitive guy
Mom doesn't let me nurse
constantly anymore and I
don't handle the stress
well therefore I have more
tear stains than everyone else.
The vet had a few ideas that
we're trying. Hoping something
works soon!

Riley 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:19:00.000-08:00

I have a foot fetish,
I just can't resist a nibble.

Zoi 6 weeks

2008-11-22T23:12:00.000-08:00

I like sitting in the
dry food bowl, don't
know why it just
feels good!

Lola 6 weeks

Riley 11/13/08

2008-11-13T11:50:00.000-08:00

Hey, Look at me!
All I need is for my
ears to go up and I'll
looks as good as those
boys in the commercials.

Frankie 11/13/08

2008-11-13T11:40:00.000-08:00

This is s-o-o-o
boring tell me when
you're done.

Micah 11/13/08

2008-11-13T11:27:00.000-08:00

I'd really like to go
back in now,
so hurry up!

Ema 1/13/08

2008-11-13T11:15:00.000-08:00

You woke me up for this?

Jonah 11/13/08

Wow!

2008-11-13T10:10:00.000-08:00

HI EVERYONE THIS MORNING
I GOT THE SEE WHAT OUTSIDE
LOOKED LIKE FOR THE 1ST TIME
WOW! IT'S BIG

m-m-m-m good!

2008-11-10T19:36:00.000-08:00

Our human mom took the fence down between the 2 litters so now all of us can be together all the time.

She also put cedar shaving in the back of the room between the crates. She wants us
to learn to go potty there. Lola here has the hang of it but it is very fun to play in!

We now get Diamond Puppy Food softened in nice warm goats milk.
m-m-m-m good

Willie

2008-11-05T21:02:00.000-08:00

At birth I was the smallest of the litter but 2 of my brothers past me up. Now Frankie is bigger than me but I'm bigger than Riley ha--ha! On top of that I have been told I have the nicest hair of all, my human mom just loves to hold me----don't tell anyone but I think I am her favorite.

Ogi

2008-11-05T20:41:00.000-08:00

My human mom caught Lilly and me eating mom's food yesterday so now we get Diamond puppy food softened in goat's milk.
Oh my goodness it is so-o-o good!
However, now mom doesn't like to clean us up so we all had our 1st sponge bath today.
NOT SO FUN!
I guess there is a price to pay for everything!

Frankie

2008-11-05T20:31:00.000-08:00

Last week I weighed less than the other kids, but hey guess what?
I now weigh more than 2 of the other guys, I'm on a roll!
Frankie

Lilly

2008-11-05T20:24:00.000-08:00

My name is Lilly and I like to talk a little more than my brothers but we have a strict mom and she just doesn't like it when we talk too much so I try to keep a lid on it. I am smaller than my sister Zoi but my hair is softer if you like that.

Harley

2008-11-05T20:12:00.000-08:00

Right now Iam the smallest inthe litter butthathas changed acouple of times in thepast couple of weeks between us boys, so next weekI might out weigh one of the other guys.
I hope----It's a man thing you know!
Harley

Riley

2008-11-05T20:05:00.000-08:00

Hi guys,
My mom Roxy had 5 of us boys and we are all real close. We all are kinda the middle of the road kinda guys. Talk a little, eat a lot. and sleep a lot, Life is good.

Roxy momma

2008-11-05T19:55:00.000-08:00

My name is Roxy and my kids are Lilly, Zoi, Willie, Frankie, Riley, Ogi, and Harley.
This is my 2nd litter of seven and I am so glad my owner has promised to let me rest for a year now. I may not be as beautiful in looks as Tessa but I am quiet and content to sit in a lap and just be a friend. Yes, I to need to see my hair dresser!

Micah

2008-11-05T19:38:00.000-08:00

I'm Micah I am the smallest in my litter but unlike Jonah I do not "always" let Lola get the last word. Yeah, I know she's a girl and girls like to talk, but every once in a while a man just has to stand up for what he believes in!

Ema

2008-11-05T19:27:00.000-08:00

I agree with Jonah life is much easier if you just keep your mouth shut. Besides Lola is quite a bit bigger than me.
OOPS! (update)
This last statement is not true I am bigger than Lola and Lilly but I am quieter.

Jonah

2008-11-05T19:18:00.000-08:00

I might have been born 1st but my sister Lola thinks she is #1 so I just let her think so.

Lola

2008-11-05T19:09:00.000-08:00

I know I'm only 3 1/2 weeks old but my siblings had better listen to me because I do like to talk.
