Since 1998 — a labor of love

Kathy Jones has raised West Highland White Terriers for 28+ years. What began as falling in love with the breed’s spunk and hardiness grew into KJ’s Westie Champs: a careful breeding program that values conformation, temperament, and documented pedigrees.

These are little dynamos — intelligent, sure of themselves, and ready for adventure with people who appreciate a true terrier.

From Kathy

Decades with Westies — in her own words.

“I raise Westies because I enjoy their traits of spunkiness, hardiness and intelligence. They are very sure of themselves, durable, smart, and tough. I didn’t want a frail dog.”
Kathy Jones · On why Westies
“Mine like nosework and barn hunt because they like to think. They make decisions. Two of mine do obedience but they get bored when they do it too long.”
Kathy Jones · On competing
