General Information On Scottie Dogs

The Scottish Terrier seemed to appear from the mists of the moors. Until 1859, no mention of the breed was recorded and, yet, that year Scotties were exhibited as a pure breed. For a time, they were dubbed the Aberdeen, due to the central locus of the breed in that area. It is certain the West Highland White and Scottish Terriers are closely related, the ancestors of both centralizing in the Blackmount region of Perthshire and the Moor of Rannoch. Although the hunters of the era, like the shepherds, were more interested in ability than purity, certain families had a pride in developing and retaining their own pure strain-and this is where the various types blossomed into specific breeds.

Those that favour the "Scottie" prefer to believe that the hairy beast described by Caius was the old version of the Scottish Terrier. Un-trimmed, he would, indeed, be covered with hair. Another very old type-perhaps a prototype of the Scottie and the Cairn-crossed with a shipwrecked Maltese, created the more glamorous Skye that we now know. Wire-coated terriers could have all come originally from the Far North where their foundation Nordic breeds lived. 

In 1881, a standard was drawn and shortly after, a club was organized. One scant year later, the Scottish Terrier landed in Canada, where the breed is now firmly entrenched. The first Scot-tie registered in the USA was Canadian bred. After the breed´s initial introduction, it became a common sight.

True terrier temperament is apparent to the extreme in the Scottie, causing him to be alert, quick and feisty. These qualities make him an ideal watchdog and varmint controller. Unfortunately, this "killer" tendency sometimes extends to the neighbour's cat or an unwary bird. Without proper firmness, he can become a bossy brat and even a biter, but consistent discipline allows his great character and loyalty to shine.

It is startling to some that Scotties are not always black. That image has been perpetuated through Franklin Roosevelt´s Scottie, "Fala," as well as the famous Black and White Scotch advertising. Early specimens were often red with a black mask, and today a wide variety of colours can and do occur. 

The prominent eyebrows and moustaches draw attention to the elongated head and give him a scowling appearance. Stripping takes care of the show dog coat, with pets usually being clipped. Owners should be aware, however, that clipping softens terrier coats and lightens colours, so if they change their minds and decide to show their companion, a lengthy process of coat repair is involved. The Scottie is a frequent winner in shows throughout the world.
