Scotish Terrier




Regarded as the National Terrier of Scotland, the "Scottie" as he is fondly known, is a hardy, courageous and tenacious little fellow. Primarily used for routing such vermin as fox, otter and wildcat, the Scottish Terrier is a very agile independent dog, giving the impression of being willing to go anywhere and do anything. His stately gait, proudly held pointed ears and powerful build, are in sharp contrast to his low slung structure and lack of height!

Inclined to be a one-man dog, the Scottish Terrier has a keen temperament and is wary with strangers. He will not stand any nonsense from anyone. However, he is totally devoted to his owner and kindly with those he knows. A real character of a dog, the "Scottie" is great fun to own but is more suitable for adults than families with young children.

Many people think of the Scottish Terrier as just being a black dog whereas his coat may be black, wheaten (pale yellow or fawn colour) or brindle, all of which are equally correct. His harsh, dense and wiry coat may require professional grooming from time to time, in order to keep it in good order.

Ideal height: 25.4-28cm
Weight 8.6 - 10.4kg
