Well, speaking from personal experience. My old roommate had one. And she was the biggest bitch EVER!
She nipped at a couple of people. She even attacked her own mom that was visiting for a few days. Not to mention, pissed all over my other roommates bed.....we still can't figure that one out.
So what exactly is your point? Of course ALL dogs have the potential to be aggressive & attack humans & of course a big part of any dogs' behaviour is the responsibility of the owner. My Westie has been attacked 4 times, some by non-specific, mongrel-type dogs.
Bu are you seriously telling me that Westies are even in the same, potentially-dangerous league as Pit Bulls, Akitas, Shar Peis, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Rottweillers, Dobermans and, in some cases, German Shepherds to name a few?
This is BS! Westie puppies chew and are difficult to train. They are also pack animals, the little sister will not be much higher in the pack than the westie. And OF COURSE, if you aren't breeding him snip him as a pup... Like all dogs, if you hit him and take away food he will not appreciate it.
