About the Scottish Terrier:
Scottish Terrier information, advice,
answers and dogs facts

The Scottie is a tough independent dog that still retains a strong hunting instinct. They can be good with respectful children but will snap if they are teased or cornered. Their thick wiry coat needs to be brushed regularly and trimmed or stripped several times a year. They need plenty of exercise to keep them from getting in to trouble. A bored Scottie will dig, chew or find other ways to amuse themselves. They bark quite a bit and will loudly announce any infringement on their territory. This breed can be quite stubborn, plenty of patience is required for obedience training.
