Our boi is 7.5 months old and weighed in at a hefty 18.4 lbs! Personally, I have no clue how he weighs that much because when he gets wet he looks like tiny.

How much does the Westie community think he will weigh at 1 year? I’m hoping under 22 lbs so he can fly in cabin for family visits.

Recent photos attached! (He just got neutered)

Today, my best friend of 13.5 years crossed the rainbow bridge. I grew up with Westies and he was the first one of my own. To say he was MY dog is an understatement. He was truly the best dog I could’ve asked for and my heart is broken. He had been diagnosed with diabetes nearly 2 years ago and also subsequently went blind. We managed it well for as long as we could. I can’t believe how quickly time passes. He actually had a good day today which nearly gutted me but I’m glad he was able to enjoy it. The sun is shining, the temperature perfect. He ate lots of McDonald’s for lunch and got to eat loads of treats. I love you Gus.
