Balinbrae Westies are beautiful West Highland White Terriers with excellent temperaments. This site is devoted to our Westies, both pets and champion show dogs, bred, fed, loved, and raised by Nora (Balin) & Guy Stone of Arizona.

Nestled in the heart of Desert Hills, Arizona, Balinbrae Ranch is a 2 acre ranch where the West's most Western Westies spend sunshiney days. To date, we've raised 29 champions, and one of our beloved Westies (Brusier) won two major awards at the famous Westminster Dog Show. Over the years, Balinbrae Westies have appeared on magazine covers, on candy bars, wine bottles, and even in advertisements for major retailers.

Balinbrae Ranch offers boarding and grooming services primarily for Westies, although we do board a few other small to medium breeds. Additionally, we can provide advice and care for your Westie puppy. In our online store you can purchase cool handmade harnesses and professional grooming kits..

Summer's still in full swing, and we would like to remind you about how important it is to keep your pets cool and comfortable. During the hot summer in Arizona, we only let our Westies out for a few minutes in the morning, and at night. The rest of the time, they are in the house enjoying the air conditioning and cool tile floor.

We are constantly updating our Westie Gallery. so if you have a picture of your Balinbrae Westie, please email it to us with a caption, and we'll add it. Pictured in the cowboy hat near the top of the page is our "Fluffy Ruffy". Check out one of our most popular website features: "Ask Ruffian". It's an advice column featuring commentary about life as a Westie. We've set Ruffy up with a new address: ruffian3@hotmail.com.

We thank you for visiting. Come back often for fun and surprises! Don't forget to refresh your bowser, er... "browser," and delete your "cookies" ...except for the ones you give out to your westie at snack time ; )
