KJ's Westie Champs
About the kennel
A lifelong love of Westies — raised with care, shown with pride, placed into the right homes.
Welcome to KJ’s Westie Champs
At KJ’s Westie Champs, we are dedicated to providing exceptional West Highland White Terriers that bring joy, companionship, and a piece of living history into your home. Our commitment to responsible breeding and a deep love for the breed have earned trust from families looking for more than a pet — they’re looking for a partner.
Kathy Jones has raised Westies since 1998 (28+ years). She was drawn to their spunkiness, hardiness, and intelligence — sturdy little dogs with big personalities, not frail fashion pieces. That same affection still guides every litter.
AKC registration & pedigree
We take pride in registering our Westie puppies with the American Kennel Club. AKC registration documents authenticity and quality — a well-traced pedigree with a lineage of distinguished ancestors.
When you choose a Westie from KJ’s Westie Champs, you’re welcoming a dog with a documented lineage that helps preserve the breed’s history and characteristics.
What we breed for
Our program prioritizes conformation, temperament, health, and genetics. The goal is a Westie that exemplifies the breed’s iconic traits and meets the standards set by kennel clubs — then thrives as a family companion.
Beyond the home, dogs from the program have competed in barn hunt, nosework, obedience, and related activities. Westies love to think. They also love to test you. We like to think we can be a little more stubborn than they are — though we’re not always sure that’s true.
