Scottish Terrier
Scottish Terriers think they are big dogs and have the boldness and courage to match. To outsiders, Scotties appear somewhat morose and serious, but they are cheerful and affectionate around family and friends. Children must be taught that these dogs are not toys and should be given the respect they deserve. They will get along well with other household animals.
