I have Cairns, bred & shown them for years.
Cairns & Westies used to be the same breed. Then they began to register any white puppies in a litter as West Highland Whites, the rest....greys, reds, creams, brindles etc Cairns, till the breed became seperate at the Kennel Club in the 1920's. But in conformation they are still the same except for colour & being clipped for show differently.
They're bigger than most Yorkies, though not some teacups! The standard is 14lbs. They're terrific little dogs.
I have Cairns, Yorkies & Skyes, they get along fine.
