Notes

The Scottish Terrier was once known as 'Aberdeen Yerrier', and was found all over Scotland, kept only as a hunting dog. The standard was written in the 1880's and still applies quite well to the modern breed, but there were many discussions over the new breed's name. The Scottish Terrier soon transformed, from a hunting dog to a popular show and companion pet. Today it is world famous, and the Danish Kennel Club have a Scottie in their logo.

The Scottish Terrier should be a compact breed, just large enough to still be able to go to ground. It is self-conscious, brave and dignified. The head is large in proportion to the body, elongated with a deep and powerful muzzle. The muzzle and head should be the same length, with a marked stop. The ears are small, pointed and set wide apart. The neck is of medium length and very powerful. The body should have a deep chest and short back, with straight topline. Straight frontlegs with powerful and well angulated hind. The tail is of medium length, carried straight up or slightly curved. The coat is short, thick and hard, with longer moustasches, beard and eyebrows.
