Are west highland terriers hair soft?
The head is the softest part of the dog.
If my west Highland white terrier is shedding a lot what can I do to treat this problem?
West Highland White Terriers shed very minimally,or seemingly not at all. If yours is shedding "a lot" then either: a.) it is not a purered Westie or b.) your Westie has a skin allergy and is losing hair rather than "shedding". (Allergies are common in these dogs...many times it's their food they are reacting to, but see a vet to be certain.)
What breed of dog with wire hair and a distinctive beard mustache and eyebrows is in the terrier family?

Why do west highland white dogs get brown patches on their body?
If you mean growing brown fur patches then the dog is NOT a full-bred West Highland White Terrier, as they only come in all white. If you mean the white hair gets brown stains then that's what it is ...STAINS. See a good groomer to get the stains out and ask them to recommend a good whitening shampoo to use at home.
Where do black westies come from?

Do dogs hair get greasy?
Yes, dogs do get greasy just like us, even though they have different hair folecules than us. I have a West highland white terrier and if i do not bathe her, she does in fact get very greasy.
When does the fur come in on West Highland White Terriers?
By one year old their fur should be full. Like many very furry breeds, Westies do go through an "uglies" stage where it seems like they will never be in full coat, especially the thick ruff of hair around the face seems to come about slowly. But do not worry!! The fur WILL come in and your Westie will be in beautiful full snow-white coat by one year in age.

No. Westies should have pure white hair. A black spot could mean the dog is not a purered Westie, or there's another breed in somewhere back in the dog's line.

Do Irish terriers have hair or fur?
They have fur. Like most dogs who shed their fur terriers don't. When they lose their hair it has to be pulled off like our hair. They are dogs that people get if they are allergic to dogs.
