Scottish Terrier
The Scottish Terrier is absolutely dependable and loyal, but may sometimes appear aloof and independent. The Scottie is very sensitive and will make a good pet for someone who understands his feisty nature. The Scottish Terrier is a small, compact, short-legged, sturdily-built dog of good bone and substance. His head is long in proportion to his size. He has a hard, wiry, weather-resistant coat and a thick-set, cobby body which is hung between short, heavy legs. These characteristics, joined with his very special keen, piercing, ''varminty'' expression, and his erect ears and tail are salient features of the breed. The Scottish Terrier's bold, confident, dignified aspect exemplifies power in a small package.
Country of Origin: Scotland.
Size: Shoulder height: 25 -28 cm (9.75 - 11 inches). Weight is around 18.75 - 23 lbs.
Coat: The hair on the coat is wiry and hard. Colors can be plain black, black with highlights, and wheat.
Character: Scotties become very attached to their family, are watchful, noble, and sporty, and think for themselves.
Temperament: The dog is naturally inclined to get along with other pets. Scotties are good with children, provided that the children treat them with kindness
Care: The coat needs to be professionally hand-plucked biannually. The chest, legs, and head are normally clipped. Regular grooming with a brush and comb is required.
Training: If training is consistent, it should be relatively easy. A Scottie's independence should always be respected in the training process.
Activity: The exercise needs of this dog are uncomplicated. It will adapt itself to the activity level of your family. Remember that it loves to dig.
Treats are a good way to reward your dog for a job well done. Here are five ways you can treat your dog to better training:
Treat and train your pet after a play session. After a rousing game of fetch, let your dog know who's in command and reward him with a treat.
End every grooming session with a treat. Teach your dog the reward of good grooming by giving him a treat after brushing.
When you leave, throw him a BONZ® brand dog snack. Give your dog something she can chew on while you're gone. BONZ can be particularly fun since many dogs like to play with them before they chomp down.
Let your dog follow his nose "down." This can be a tricky command to teach a dog, but not if you use an aromatic treat like Purina® Beggin' Strips® brand dry snack. Working from his seated position, let your dog sniff the treat, command DOWN, then pull the treat down and out in an L-shaped move. Your dog will naturally follow his nose "down."
Never give a treat without a trick. There should be no free rides for dogs when it comes to treats. Always make your dog obey some kind of command before rewarding her with a treat.
