They shed, but while other dogs have just two seasons in which they leave maniacly their fur all over the place (which is, by the way, like TOTALLY disgusting!!), westies leave very very little fur through the whole year, so instead of aspirating every single day for two whole seasons, you aspirate like you don't even own a dog. So, yeah, westies are THE most beautiful AND practical dog breed in the whole wide universe!!!

∙ 15y agoThe idiot who said "yes" obviously doesn't own a westie!!
No, westies do NOT, I repeat, do NOT shed!!
They leave fur only a little when you cuddle them too much all over your clothes or when they wipe their fur on rugs, and that's still really little.
I have a westie and its completely enough to aspirate the floor once a week, while when I was "baby-sitting" a pekingese mix we had to apirate almost every single day... it was horrible... fur all over the place!!
And yes, we decided to go for the westie because its cuteness, loyalty and no shedding.
So, every dog sheds, but westies keep their fur that feel of on their bodies and you remove it by combing. So, always go for the westie!

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.)
