Scottish Terrier Dog Breed Brief

One of the most recognizable of the terrier dog breeds, the Scottish Terrier is a handsome and spirited dog with a mind of it's own and a lot of spunk to back it up. Despite it's glamorous looks, the Scottie is a terrier, developed and bred to hunt rats, rodents and other vermin. That initial purpose is still very much a part of the Scottish Terrier personality, lending tenacity and fearlessness to this unique and endearing breed of terrier.

Affectionately known as the "Scottie", the Scottish Terrier is a working terrier that hails from the Scottish Highlands, and was once a member of the "Scotch Terrier Group", which included a variety of terrier types. This group underwent renaming in the mid 1800's by British dog fanciers in an attempt to differentiate between the various breeds, and the Scottie was given the name "Hard-Haired Scotch Terrier". Two years later, the breed was renamed the Scottish Terrier and continues to carry that name today.
