Westies

Yesterday I was out for a longwalk with my son and Pepper our Westie dog near where we live. I met a neighbour called Bill whom I hadn't seen for ages.

I was very surprised to see him on his own because he has a brown Collie and the 2 of them are inseparable.

Naturally I enquired about Jess and his face dropped. I knew something was terribly wrong. His reply was that he had to put Jess down because he had developed cancer which had come on so quickly. He just didn't want his friend to suffer.

I said to John that I was so sorry. He knew that I meant it as all dog lovers do. After all it is the passing of one of your family.

Non dog owners can't understand and I feel
that they are the losers of such love and loyalty.

It got me to thinking how long our Pepper would live to. The Westie in general should live to around 15 years if probably looked after and also if no serious health issue arise.

He is now 6 years and I still can't believe he is that old. Maybe it's a sign of me getting old, because my kids seemed to have grown up in the blink of an eye.

I give Pepper a big hug when I got home and he got a couple of extra treats also. Don't want to take him for granted and will monitor his health checks with the proper grooming for the west highland terrier. He always looks like a little puppy again, every time he returns from the groomers. Have to also start building up the westie photos again.

So for all westie and dog lovers, please remember to give your pet a hug today.
