Breed
West Highland White Terrier

How would you describe their personality?
Blizzard is a West Highland White Terrier who joined our family when he was just 10 weeks old. And due to our family situation at the time it was decided that he would live at our Print Shop during the day which he has done for the last 10 years.

On occasion he decides to be a bit stubborn and chooses to stay at our home during the day. But in the end I think he always regrets his choice.
My husband tells me once Blizzard realizes that I’ve left and he has to stay home all day he begins to pout.

Blizzard loves to chase squirrels and bunnies and once his nose has caught scent of something he remembers forever. Sometimes people think he is grouchy because he talks to us with a grumbling voice. And Blizzard loves to walk on the treadmill. He will often sit next to it and wait for us to get it going for him so he can walk. Blizzard is my daily companion along with our other dog Jack. Blizzard and Jack love to run in the yard. These guys are my friends, my companions, my protectors, and most of all part of my family.

Several weeks ago we thought we were going to lose him as he was quite ill. My heart nearly broke as I waited for test results to come back, knowing that I may have to make the hard decision to let him go. We learned that he has diabetes and now gets two insulin shots a day.

Thank you for allowing us to share a little bit (or maybe a lot) about our Blizzard.
