Scottish Terrier / 99+1 Dog Breeds

Описание: The Scottish Terrier. This old girl is a tough nut. So tough in fact, that she earned the nickname ‘The Diehard’ because of it. She has a truly rugged character, a hardy and steadfast attitude to life. She’s determined, intelligent and always ready for action.

She has no fear, and this along with her feistiness can make her a bit snappy and aggressive with other dogs at times. You’ll also need to keep an eye on her with smaller animals and household pets. With strangers she’s friendly enough after an initial wariness, but with her family she’s totally devoted.

We have quite a sensitive soul on our hands here, although she’s very independent and would rather you believe she doesn’t need you. She can be very stubborn too. This dog needs company, so just be sure to spend quality time with her to avoid having her dig and bark a bit too much!

She’s an adventurer, needing daily exercise and daily excitement. A decent walk each day and a bit of rough and tumble indoors or outdoors will be more than enough for her. A safe area for her to get off the lead and have a good sniff around would be perfect. She needs to be brushed up to three times a week and clipped every three months.

Interesting facts: Early custom saw any terrier that came from Scotland being branded a Scottish Terrier, including many other dogs we now know to be separate breeds. The dog we know today as the Scottish Terrier originated from the Aberdeen area and was originally called the Aberdeen Terrier!

The Scottish Terrier. A tough, hardy yet sensitive companion for those with the time to enjoy her.
