Why would a westhighland terrier have a longer snout then what is normally seen on westies?
The facial characteristics of Westies will vary according to their parents and their respective bloodlines. Pay close attention to the attributes of both parents when you are selecting puppies. I recommend purchasing from true Westie lovers who have both parents available for you to visit with. Inspect their papers carefully. While AKC and APR are reputable, they mostly only provide paperwork that can be manipulated by disreputable dog sellers. If you do not feel right about the seller, move on.

How hard are westies to potty train?
They are intelligent and love learning tricks. On housebreaking, Westies can go either way --- some are relatively easy while others are difficult. Remember, tiny dogs have tiny bladders -- so any small-breed puppy WILL take longer to housebreak than a larger breed. Terriers, including Westies, can sometimes be stubborn -- it's not that they aren't intelligent, just that during training you have to keep things interesting for them because they get bored easily and when they do --- that's when they become stubborn. For a first-time trainer or first-time dog owner I would not recommend a terrier of any type. I love terriers and have trained many, but terriers are NOT for everyone. First-timers can have a particularly hard time with that dynamic terrier temperament.
