Description & Appearance:
Westiepoos are a hybrid dog, crossed from a West Highland White Terrier and a Toy Poodle.
Temperament:

Westiepoos are a mix of personalities from the Westie and Poodle.
Hardy and well-balanced, the Westiepoo is of medium size.
They possess an appealing expression, are compact, agile, and sturdy in appearance. 
They are commonly referred to as a "designer dog" and have become popular as companions due to their hypoallergenic coats.

Like the Westie, they are full of themselves, not realizing their own size.
Like the Poodle, they are highly intelligent, and well-tempered.
The combination of the two produces an easily trainable, energetic and friendly mix.

Housebreaking should be easier with this mix as the Poodle is known to be one of the sharpest dogs around.
They are watchdog ability is good, but friendly and mild-mannered if you let a stranger in.
This hardy mix does not need to be coddled or pampered, but certainly enjoy cozy evenings on your lap.

Care & Grooming:
Westiepoos shed very little. They also produce very little dander, a plus for allergy
sufferers. They do have a lot of hair however.
Many owners have their Westiepoos trimmed regularly by a professional groomer to keep the hair from matting.
This mix needs the occasional brushing to keep the coat clean. Bathe as necessary, but not often.

This breed is an indoor breed and suited well for apartment life.
They get much of their exercise running through the house and battling their toys.
At the same time, they are very active and enjoy traveling with you or taking the occasional walk.
