Health Resources

Our goal for the Health Resources section is to provide information on current review and research articles about topics related to Westie health and disease. We will include a brief description of the article and a link to the site containing the article or its location in printed literature.

These topics will include, but not be limited to:

• Addison's Disease
• Atopic Dermatitis
• Behavioral Problems
• CMO
• Diabetes Mellitus
• Dry Eye
• Inflammatory Bowel Disease
• Legg-Perthes Disease
• Luxated Patella
• Pulmonary Fibrosis
• White Shaker Syndrome

This will be an ongoing project, and we welcome your input. Please forward references to pertinent articles to the Foundation so that we may review them for inclusion in our database.
