The West Highland Terrier originated in the Highlands of Scotland and was originally called the Poltalloch Terrier named after that city. They were also called the Roseneath Terrier and that is the name they used when first shown in the USA in 1906. In 1909 the name was changed a third time to the West Highland Terrier as they are known today, or more commonly as the “Westie”. This compact little ball of energy is best known for its bright white double coat which does require brushing and grooming on a regular basis. The AKC recognized the breed in 1908 in the Terrier Group. Designed as a vermin hunter, today’s Westie enjoys life as a companion dog and averages 10 to 11 inches tall at the withers. Try to picture a life sized cupcake, approximately 2” high, and 3” wide, with either vanilla or chocolate frosting and even jimmies! That is exactly what our pupcake trinket boxes are! You pick up the top and the cupcake bottom is the trinket box! They are hand painted and top quality. Every little jimmy is painted a different bright color! If that’s not enough, we then mount one of our Tiny Ones figurines to the cover! This is a totally unique item, made even more special with the addition of your favorite breed on the top! Great item for that special someone for birthdays or any holiday.
