Welcome to Canadian Scottish Terrier Club

The Scottish Terrier

One of the oldest and most recognized of the terriers. He is described as a big dog in a small package. He usually weighs about 20 lb. and stands 10 inches at the shoulders. They come in Black, gray, wheaten and brindle or grizzled colors. They have a typical wire haired terrier coat which is considered non shedding and to many people does not trigger allergies. He has a solid low-set appearance almost like a battleship in the water. He walks with a definite swagger and carries himself with dignity. Often remaining aloof but tolerant of the rest of the world.

A Scotties heart is not given lightly, it has to be earned and to those who have achieved this honor there is no more loyal, loving friend in the world. A friend who unerringly knows what mood you are in and what they should do to fit into your life at the moment. They can be comical and affectionate with a reserve and independence that can be surprising and every one is an individual and that can be one of their greatest charms.

They are a brave dog that will not back down from a challenge but they are not bullies. Many scotties seem to have a regal bearing that almost seems to place them above the rest of the canine world and yet even into old age they seem ready to play at the first invitation.

This is a breed that collects lifetime fans. If you are fortunate enough to count a Scottie as one of your friends, the odds are very strong you will never be without one again.  

Connecting Breeders with Owners

Choosing the right Scottie requires careful consideration. You need to make sure that your Scottie comes from a responsible and well-respected breeder. This cannot be stressed enough.

Responsible breeders are concerned with the betterment of the breed and breeding healthier dogs with the appropriate temperament for the breed.

A responsible breeder also makes sure that every single Scottie goes to an owner who will provide it with the same love and devotion for life that the breeder has provided for the first twelve weeks. This means careful screening and evaluation of each person or family interested in getting a Scottie.
