What a cutie pie!!!
Since he's still little, I'm sure you've done your research about grooming, but make sure that you take him to a qualified groomer that does hand stripping and carding. This will keep it hard and wirey! It is more expensive to have done, but it is the only way to maintain that "terrier" look properly.
Oh, also, just a little secret, the westies you see in the dog shows and commercials have been groomed to the nines, using all kinds of hair products (gels, sprays, powders, etc) to get that hair to stand up and in some cases, they even use hair extenstions (some people call them wiggies) to make the coat on the head appear fuller. They are against the rules in show, but not in hollywood.
