Westillon Build Information
This very small-sized dog is a cross-breed between a West Highland Terrier and a Papillon, and even in adulthood will weigh no more than 7 to 15 lbs. Naturally, the diminutive size of a Westillon makes it relatively unsuitable for watchdog duty, even though it is very intelligent. Its fur is lightweight and fairly short, most often being colored brown, brown & white, or cream-colored.
