  Description:
Known as the Scottie, the Scottish Terrier has a compact, strong body; short legs, pricked ears and naturally erect tail. His face should wear a keen, sharp and active expression. President Roosevelt had a Scottie named Fala in the White House. He tends to be a one or two person dog and does his best as a pampered pet. While a little stubborn, he still makes a loyal pet if given the change to survey the scene before committing himself. A very good watchdog, but he needs to be keep secured as he has a tendency to wander.
