It was party time Sunday, September 2nd.  Czarcrest Westies hosted a Black and White puppy party to evaluate Richard Bumstead's 12 week old Scotty litter of 3 (2 girls and a boy) and Michele Czarnecki's 10 week old Westie litter of 2 (a boy and a girl)

Also attending were Teri and Mike Crouch, Susan Jenkins, Gail Nottenburg and Mark, Barb Roman, Diane and Brett Searle, Dr Mary Ann Sheller, and Carol Walker. 

Special thanks to Diane Searle for orchestrating the table of food and drinks, which was enjoyed by everyone.

Richard, Susan and Michele evaluated each puppy and then Dr Sheller gave her perspective on what she looks for in a healthy puppy.  It was a fun and educational afternoon, with plenty of good food, great conversation, and of course, five adorable puppies!

April 2018

On April 9th, 2018, Michele Czarnecki, Czarcrest Westies and the Westie world lost a great friend and advocate for our West Highland White Terriers.  Judy Baird has been a friend and co-owner for the past 18 years and has owned and titled 10 of my dogs.  I will miss her tremendously and will never forget her.  Judy fought hard but lost her battle with cancer.  Rest in Peace Judy.
