Dorothy Gabriel on the Scottish Terrier




























THE CHARACTER of the Scottish Terrier is wonderful. He is essentially a one man´s dog, loving his home and his owner… he is always ready for a long ramble or a day´s ratting… He is self-centred, deep natured with a soul both for laughter and tragedy. As a sportsman he is unsurpassed… Anything that means ”fur” he will kill, from badger to the lowly house mouse, and woe betide the marauding cat that crosses his path, but his own cat is sacred… There is nothing frothy or shallow in the nature of a Scottie… He is absolutely honourable, incapable of mean or petty action, large hearted and loving, with the soul and mind of an honest gentleman.
