[BennoLover]

togheter. Of course, when he see a cat,

he goes wild, but he don't fighting with them.

Westies don't eat cats. My westie lives with 4 of them and they play chase. She has killed bunnies, they were bred to kill vermin and most cats (with the exception of kittens) are too big to be considered prey for a terrier.

[kytusdasg]

Westies do eat cats, mine has killed a a cat and badly injured another, you cant get a cat too big for a westie. Westies were bred to hunt badgers and foxes, so I hardly think a cat would be much of a problem. type westies hunt badgers on google and you will see. It would be ridiculous that a westie could kill a fierce badger and not a tamed house cat. The onl reason your westie may not attack the cat is because he has become acustomed to them after living with them.

[Deeganmb]

A well socialized Westie will not go for a cat. My cats came after my Westie so they were intruding on her territory. But since she has been well trained and understands who is in charge (me) she saw that I accepted the cats so she accepted them.

[kytusdasg]

what I meant was not that a Westie cannot be trained to not attack cats, my point was merely that a cat could not be considered too large a prey for a westie terrier, no matter what breed of cat, the westie would win, I say this because your previous remark was that most cats with the exception of kittens r 2 big a prey for a westie.

[Steacy783]

I don't know about prey but our last or our first Westie,took on two pure bred huskies one day on a walk and came out the better! Not a scratch! And the huskies went around him from then on. Cat's,,please,,I think every Westie trained or otherwise is capable of taking on that Badger if he/she chooses to do so!!!

[kytusdasg]

Ye, definately, westies are deceptively strong, although they are small they are very strong and are very fiesty when needs be. People just think that they are cute little lap dogs,not even capeable of taking on a common houshold cat, when really they are very strong and capable hunters able to kill prey such as badgers, foxes and evidently, a couple of huskies!

[Steacy783]

Sorry,,but this that ability,does not have to be trained into them either,it seems to be absolutely natural. Like,you say perhapes "Get the squirrel" the dog has already been stalking,before you spoke! Now as for small household watch dog,,please,,ya ain't getting in here with out my knowing about it,at least,if he/she doesn't take off your leg in the process!!! Most favorite small dog breed HOW many times????

[kytusdasg]

no, your right, it doesnt, when mine was a pup she even knew what her pray was, she would try to attack quirrels and cats without me having to teach her it is absoloutly incredible. precisely, if somone came into my house all I hear for the next 5 minutes is barking and growling, or at least until I tell her to calm down and show her it is a friend,It is a dog and you can see why its voted most favorite small dog breed because its an all round awesome dog!

[IrOnMiKe151]

you gotta remember westies are terriers and arnt bred to be cute theyre bred for killing varmin

people have spoilt the breed by taking it away from its hunting origins and turning it into a cute poodlish type of dog

[Steacy783]

Heh Dude your right,,they were originally bred as hunters of burrowing animals,especially including Badger's!!! Also although they like to get wet when young,but they make bad swimmer's!!! Encouraging him to do so is wrong,,they panic once their feet can't touch bottom !!! As for their Courage,,well he's attemping it anyway to please whoever doesn't know that !!!

[TreacleBummm]

Westies were also bred to hunt otters so should be good swimmers. My westie has been swimming since she was a pup and still loves to do it now. Its the funniest when she tries to catch the ducks in the lake.

[Steacy783]

Not disagreeing. Our's used to jump or insist on being in the tub when ever one showered since one month old. Should have kept it up some how I guess!?!

[BrownEyedShorty85]

My little 4 month old Westie does the exact same thing! I had to keep him out of the bathroom for a few days so I could put flea and tick medicine on him.

[Steacy783]

I have to ask why about the flea and tick medicine !

[philsfan33]

Why is jago playing in a SEWER? You are not a very good dog owner!

[Isleofskye]

Thats their garden!..See the barbecue set.

I hsve 4 Westies(2males/2 females)..they are the greatest,liveliest,gamest dogs in the World!

[partygirl8798]

[kytusdasg]

I am extremely sorry to hear about your westie, when they die it is like losing a part of your fanily and it is so  hard.
