ODE TO A WESTIE

Welcome to the website and blog of Kalencroft Westies. Lovers of Westies will love this ODE TO A WESTIE which was first published in The Westie News, Vol 2, No. 3 of the West Highland White Terrier Club of England by an anonymous author.

W for White as he should be
E for Eagerness all must see
S for Sight keen the quarry to spy
T for Terrier spirit and never say die

H for the Happiness they always bring
I for Inquisitive - doing their own thing
G for Good measure in such a small frame
H for "Hi there", how about a game?
L for their Laughter and love in their hearts
A for Amenable right from the start
N for Not minding if Mum should look stern
D for Delight upon her return

W for Welcome, so warm and so nice
H for Hunting and catching those mice
I for Intelligence - more than most
T for Top Dog - no idle boast
E for Evermore Westies - our toast!
