He does HATE cats but he was a working dog before we got him so cats, squirrels, rabbits are all fair game BUT if he had been a pup the chase is very easy to train out.
you reckon, my lurcher is certainly amongst the best trained dogs I meet but anything small and furry that runs away will be chased. Having said that if we owned a cat when she was a pup I'm sure she'd accept t it.. Lurchers are the best dogs in the world by far.
Not a Chocolate Labrador..... they eat their own poo then jump up and lick your face
Well, I'd recommend my brother's dog, Mac. Great with just about everything, stands being bullied by their other dog, Honey, a golden Lab, the cats, ferrets...
Barely got two brain cells to rub together; took six shocks before he realised that touching a cattle fence with his nose wasn't the smart option.
Beautiful dog, when asked where he sleeps, the answer is, where he chooses:
This pic was taken about eight months ago, he's bigger now...

Tibetan terrier, but probably crossed with something spanielly.
Benny's fine qualities:
* Very affectionate and friendly
* 100% obedient in the home
* Learns commands very quickly
* Loves walks, but is also very lazy
* Very friendly with other dogs
* Looks a bit like Benedict Cumberbatch
Benny's... less fine qualities
* Normally walks nicely on the lead, but goes bonkers if he sees a cat, or if it's dark.
* Despite being beautifully obedient in the home, and generally good on walks, he acts like a dick at dog training.
* Easily distracted, and will walk into trees/wheelie bins because he's looking up for squirrels
* Fussy eater...
*...but obsessed with roast chicken and prawn crackers, and will sit staring at the kitchen door if he knows they're contained within
* Can launch himself four foot vertically in the air. This [i]would [/i]be a plus point, but he once did it to steal my icecream, so... meh.
Truth be told, most of his 'bad points' aren't his fault, they're ours because we could do with being firmer with his training. Wouldn't change him for the world, best dog ever.
On the subject of Westies, the in-laws had three - Molly, and then her two pups, Annie and Rupert. Fantastic little dogs, great with children, very laid back and affectionate in the house but also quite independent. Annie was the softest and most submissive of the three, but conversely also the most murderous when it came to small critters. Not sure how they'd be with cats. They did have a lot of health issues, however (Cushings disease, cancer, ongoing skin and ear problems).
