Are your 2 Westies related? Female and male? Who is the boss? My uncle has 2 Westies and they are 8 and 9. The female is the oldest, but she was there first and she is the boss. My uncle has big Westies though. They are 26-28 pounds! Mine is 20 pounds.
So my dog's previous vet required twice a year of bordetella and once a year of the canine lepto vaccine. His current vet requires once a year of bordetella and no canine lepto.

Nope
One of them we got from a Puppy farm (Geoffrey, the oldest, who is male) and the other, Rosie - the female, we bought from a rescue in Wales. She was RESCUED from a puppy farm. The "Farmer" didn't want her because when he took her puppies away, she'd escape, steal another dog's puppies and then bring them back to her pen
Geoffrey is very much the boss. Wherever Geoffrey goes, Rosie follows. If Geoffrey starts barking, Rosie follows suit after!
But technically, my mum's the boss

After all, Mother knows best!
