The Scottish Terrier popularly called the Scottie, is a breed of dog. Steadfastly loyal to his owner and reserved with strangers, the Scottish Terrier makes an intimidating watchdog. They are an independent and rugged breed with a wiry outer coat and a soft dense undercoat. The coarse, weather-resistant coat has a soft undercoat and comes in colors of black, brindle or wheaten. Their hunting instinct remains strong, which can complicate life for the neighbor’s cat, and Scotties are known to be cantankerous around other dogs.
