Ua hānai mua ʻia lākou no ka hahai ʻana i nā ʻiole, a ʻo ko lākou liʻiliʻi a me ka ikaika kiʻekiʻe ua kūpono lākou no kēia hana. He ʻaʻahu keʻokeʻo kūʻokoʻa ʻo Westies, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻoʻoleʻa a ʻelua-papa, me kahi kapa hulu wiry a me kahi kapa palupalu. ʻO ko lākou kaumaha ma waena o 13 a 22 paona a kū ma kahi o 10-11 iniha ke kiʻekiʻe ma ka poʻohiwi.

Leʻaleʻa lākou i ka hele wāwae, ka pāʻani kiʻi, a me ka ʻimi ʻana i ko lākou puni. Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo Westies no ko lākou aloha i ka ʻeli ʻana, no laila e kiaʻi mau ʻia lākou i ka wā e pāʻani ai i ka pā. ʻOiai hiki iā lākou ke hoʻololi i ka noho ʻana, hana maikaʻi lākou i nā hale me nā pā pā i hiki ai iā lākou ke holo a pāʻani me ka palekana.

He ʻīlio akamai ʻo Westies e pane maikaʻi i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa hoʻoikaika maikaʻi. Hiki iā lākou ke paʻakikī i kekahi manawa, no laila he mea nui e hoʻomanawanui a paʻa i ke aʻo ʻana. Hiki ke aʻo ʻia ʻo Westies no nā ʻano hana like ʻole, e like me ka hoʻolohe, agility, a me ka hahai holoholona. ʻIke ʻia lākou no ko lākou hiki ke aʻo i nā hana hoʻopunipuni a he poʻe hana kaulana i ka honua o nā hōʻike ʻīlio a me nā circuses.
ʻO ke kāhili
He ʻaʻahu keʻokeʻo kūʻokoʻa ko Westies e pono ai ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa maʻamau e mālama i kona ʻano maikaʻi. Pono lākou e palaki ma ka liʻiliʻi hoʻokahi manawa i ka pule e wehe i ka lauoho make a pale i ka moena. Pono ʻo Westies i ka ʻauʻau maʻamau e mālama i ko lākou ʻaʻahu maʻemaʻe a ʻālohilohi. Pono e nānā mau ʻia ko lākou mau pepeiao no nā hōʻailona o ka maʻi, a e ʻoki mau ʻia ko lākou mau kui.
Health
E like me nā ʻano ʻano ʻē aʻe, pili ʻo Westies i kekahi mau pilikia olakino. ʻO kekahi o nā pilikia olakino maʻamau no Westies e pili ana i ka maʻi ʻili, dysplasia hip, a me nā pilikia niho. Hiki paha iā lākou ke maʻalahi i kekahi mau pilikia hanu, no laila he mea nui e mālama iā lākou i ke kaumaha olakino a pale i ka hoʻolaha ʻana iā lākou i nā wela wela.
Pono ka home
Hiki i nā Westies ke hoʻololi i nā ʻano noho like ʻole, me nā hale noho a me nā hale me nā pā. Hana maikaʻi lākou ma nā hale me nā pā pā i hiki ai iā lākou ke holo a pāʻani me ka palekana. Pono nā Westies i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kēlā me kēia lā, no laila e mākaukau nā mea nona e hāʻawi iā lākou i nā hele wāwae a me nā manawa pāʻani.

Loaʻa iā lākou ke kiʻekiʻe o ka ikehu, no laila ʻaʻole paha lākou ke koho maikaʻi loa no nā ʻohana me nā ʻano noho ʻole.
Socialization
He mea koʻikoʻi ka pilikanaka no nā ʻīlio āpau, a ʻaʻole ʻokoʻa ʻo Westies. Pono lākou e hōʻike i nā kānaka like ʻole, nā holoholona, a me nā kaiapuni mai ka wā ʻōpiopio e kōkua iā lākou e ulu aʻe i mau mākua i hoʻoponopono maikaʻi ʻia. Hiki i ka pilikanaka ke kōkua i ka pale ʻana i nā pilikia ʻano a e maʻalahi iā Westies ke hoʻololi i nā kūlana hou.

ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi West Highland White Terrier hiki ke uku. Ma waho aʻe o ke kumukūʻai mua o ke kūʻai ʻana i kahi ʻīlio, pono e mākaukau nā mea nona e uku no ka meaʻai, ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana, ka mālama holoholona, a me nā lilo ʻē aʻe. Pono paha ʻo Westies i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa kūikawā a i ʻole ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa behavioral, hiki ke hoʻohui i ke kumukūʻai o ka ʻona.
Panina
Hiki i nā West Highland White Terriers ke hana i nā holoholona nui no nā mea nona nā ʻīlio mua. He mau ʻīlio aloha lākou a hauʻoli i ka pili ʻana i nā kānaka a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe. Pono lākou i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i kēlā me kēia lā a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa maʻamau, akā ʻo ko lākou kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka ikehu a me nā ʻano pāʻani hiki ke hauʻoli iā lākou e noho a puni. Eia nō naʻe, pono e mākaukau ka poʻe i manaʻo ʻia e hoʻolilo i ka manawa a me ke kālā i kā lākou mālama a pono e noʻonoʻo pono inā ʻo West Highland White Terrier ka mea kūpono i ko lākou nohona.
