Does Anyone know Westie pup breeders in Northern ireland?

Answer 1

That won't be hard to find. Just contact the British and Irish Kennel clubs and ask for list of breeders.

UK KC should have the northern Irish breeders but the Irish KC will doubtless have them too. [phone]

and 0870 606 6750 for UK.

Just ask for the number of the Westie club secretary for NI and they should be able to put you in touch with breeders.

Good luck.

Answer 2

Hi, I'm not sure if any of the breeders on the Champdogs site are from Northern Ireland or not ... I'm not that good at identifying counties & there are some counties listed that I've never heard of (soz) - anyway, hope that there is one on there somewhere.

However, just in case, I've found the following on several other websites:

NORTH OF IRELAND WEST HIGHLAND WHITE TERRIER CLUB Mrs M Johnston, Glenveagh, 24 Corkhill Road, Seskinore, Co Tyrone, Northern Ireland, BT78 2PW - 01662 841618

and the link to the club website is below - hopefully, if you contact them, then they will be able to point you in the right direction because, unfortunately, they do not appear to have a list of breeders on the site.

Good luck.

Answer 3

"When purchasing a dog from a breeder you are most likely supporting a puppy mill" What a ridiculous and sweeping statement. There is a world of difference between a reputable and knowledgeable breeder and a puppy mill. Conatct the NI Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed club: NORTHERN IRELAND CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIEL CLUB. Sec. Miss Finlay. Tel No: 028 90 851333 They should be able to put you in touch with reputable breeders who do all the necessary health checks for the breed.

There are a bunch of things you should know about dog training but we are going to discuss what I feel are some the most important. Keep in mind that these are only some of the things you should know. Go here http://OnlineDogTraining.enle.info/?uI14

1. Repetition is the number 1 principle of dog training. Dogs just like humans learn by doing things over and over in order to get better.

2. Dog Training can and should be fun for both you and your new pet.

3. Training sessions should always be short but sweet. I never work a dog more than 15 minutes in a session to keep from losing the dog's attention. You should train you dog at least once a day but never more than three formal sessions a day.

4. Your goal should be that each training session is just a little bit better than the last one. You need to always strive to make the training better, slowly. I mention this because quite often I see people who do daily training sessions but the dog never gets better and it is not the dogs fault.

5. Having patients is very important in dog training. Losing your temper does not work with a canine it simply makes things worse.

6. Exercise is very important in the training process to get rid of all the dogs nervous energy.

7. Taking your pet for walks is very important because it develops serotonin which gives your dog a feeling of well being.

8. Always be sure to give your dog a bunch of praise in your training. It is your dog's paycheck for doing a great job.

9. Never hit your dog. I have heard people say I never hit my dog instead I roll up a magazine and swat it. It's the same thing... hitting is hitting.

10. After each training session be sure to do something that your dog will enjoy. Take it for a walk, throw the ball or maybe even rub its belly. Just do something that makes the dog look forward to the next training session.

These are things that I teach my dog training students as well as my dog training clients. I hope these things will give you something to think about when training your dog. Spend some time training your dog daily and you will both reap the benefits.
