West Highland White Terrier Westie Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet our cheerful little West Highland Terrier — a bright, bouncy companion with a personality as sunny as their snowy white coat.
This friendly and outgoing pup greets everyone like a long-lost friend. Whether it’s staff, visitors, or new dog pals, they approach life with a wagging tail and a curious nose. Having previously lived with other dogs, they’re comfortable sharing space and social time, making them a great candidate for a multi-dog household with proper introductions.
They already know how to sit, especially when a treat is involved, and they’re eager to keep learning. Smart, attentive, and people-oriented, this Westie enjoys being part of the action — walks, playtime, and simply hanging out nearby.
If you’re looking for a confident little companion who brings energy, friendliness, and good manners in a compact package, this Westie is ready to be your new best friend.

Since many of our adoptable dogs are in foster homes, appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt!
