Breed All About It - Scottish Terrier

[MsHorsegirllover]

I love my scottie she is so fun

[LeesieG]

I have a Scottie that will be a year old next month. She's super sweet, smart, and playful. She is really stubborn though, she's also fearless. I love my little Scottie and would recommend them to anyone :)

[mrrsbh]

lol my scotch knows how to go up and go down the stairs of the 3rd apartment(where i live),pee on a rug,poop right place and sit :P

thumbs up if u hav or want a terrier and u love them

[djsazquatch]

Yeah, they can be crusty but if you happen to come across a friendly Scottie, they tend to be insanely gregarious.

[leemallory19]

Our scottie LOVES people and could care less if we are around if there are other people there. Scotties were bred to hunt larger animals in burrows (otters and badgers) so they have very large teeth for a small dog. The stubborn part is dead on though.

[singdancelady23]

Only 2 treats for sociability??? I'm a twenty-something who lives with her scottie and I SWEAR my friends only come over to see and play with HER. It's so cute that I don't mind. I've grown up with dogs and I don't know if she's just unique for the breed, but she's on the top of the list for one of the most social dogs I've ever met!

[TheEquestrianForever]

My grandparents just lost their boxer (she was only 3) really smart dog they miss her soo much I had a great idea,my grandma has always wanted a scottish terrior so I told my mom why dont we get her one this Christmas?And we are I can't wait to see her face.I really hope this puppy will live a lot longer p.s. if you have any info. on them that you would like to share please do.

[TheLightKit]

@TheEquestrianForever Scotties used to be used to hunt small animals like, rabbit and squiral, they are violent and should not engage in violent activities like tug of war or wrestling, they are lovable, but they will be hard to control unless you show you are dominant. They won't follow your directions, like they won't stop unless you say "No" Loud and firm. They also shed little to none. Thats about all I know about scotties.

[Desertshimmerful]

So cute. I have a scotty cross jack, but he's taken most of the scottie looks and behaviour! Once bitten, forever smitten!!

[themanitasdeplomo]

This must be the worst Breed All About It ever, seriously, all they talk about is health problems!?

[MrPorsche91730]

I remember living in an apartment and a sweet old lady had 2 of these. One thing I remember is they were terrifying, they would growl and show their teath when you got to close. Im still trerrified of these dogs

[NuCl3aRXAce]

I want a small to medium dog Like this dog's size that sheds little to non and that is A terrier :D

[christineyoyop]

0:23 My dog has the same one. 8D

[wolfrun1234]

I am a Scottie! An Agnes Scottie, that is :P

[horsegrlJoBroFan]

my scottie midnight would definitely get four treat out of four for sociability. She is unbelievably friendly and loves everyone! lol

[amyhenry247]

i have a scottie!!!!!

[masterkingjaya]

Ferrioni xD

[NightGazeReborn]

Omg I miss this show so much.

[ILoveScratchBattles]

i pefer mini schnauzers

[OmniSurveyor]

My scottie going to be 12 next month. He's slowed down and doesn't like taking long walks on his leash like he use to, but when he's off his leash out in the field hunting mice he'll run back and forth like a pup.

[Ashitaka255]

Acupuncture? Fucking acupuncture? WTF

[FinlayCullender]

i have a puppy named diesel who is a scottie. He is a proper boy and we have not had him castrated, it is unhumane, He is not naughty just funny and never harmful. He will be a stud in a few years. My question is: Will he be a good stud?

[ILoveScratchBattles]

@FinlayCullender i have an uncastrated girl mini and if they were bred they would make dual breed "scottish schnauzer". LOL!

[MultiMindedMaiden]

The narrator reminds me of Chris Hansen.

[pvtchapman1beer]

does anybody know the best real foods you can cook for your scottie? everytime I try to find something online they want money for the information, any help would be appreciated, thanks

[toinkytoink100]

Aww. reminds me of Jock from Lady and the Tramp

[Probablyacowtbh]

I'm a Scot living in the highlands, I've had Scotties for the past 15 years, I've never heard of "Scottie Cramp" before in my life until this vid. What the hell?

Such a "specific" ailment suggests genetic corruption of some sort. Suggestion : Compare DNA between both countries averages, then act.

A-lot of Scottish immigrants wouldn't have had much cash, as such a pet was a "luxury". Only the better-off could take one with them. As such, fewer in the gene-pool, possibly below equilibrium.

[bigrobbie64]

av got a wee scottie named angus he's 7, and this video is him down to a tee. love this breed.

[babyblue6453]

i love them dogss

[cherboi101]

i have one of those !!!!

[chimaira6668]

"They say this wee laddie embodys the soul of Scotland"

[BrynnAndEmily]

I'm playing a scottie in 101 Dalmatians and I found this very helpful, thank you!

[Smoothbluehero]

I love Scotties! I have two boys that are named Zac and Johnny!

[SakuraAvalonBleac25]

never had one but they look so cute ^^

[sslink1]

Four bones of courage ftw!!!

[libertybowie]

i love those dogs

[RobbytheLion]

I had a roommate who had one and she was very playful and friendly. I've always heard they were grumpy and aloof. Not Bonnie! She liked everyone.

[EDtheIslander]

I had a Scottie/Chihuahua mix growing up.She got run over by a truck at the age of 16,and was the smartest dog I ve ever had.

[relmmih6]

@EDtheIslander obviously not that smart

[GraphiteGum]

@EDtheIslander I'm so sorry, she must've been a great dog :l

My Scottie is hardly the smart type.. we let him do what ever he wants so he can enjoy himself... (except on the couch or upstairs... :P)

[EDtheIslander]

@GraphiteGum She was a bit of a joker,she would go and poop at the neighbor's yard,not ours,she'd also attack the hind legs of the neighbor's rottweiler,who d allways end up frustrated (she was very agile)When another dog tried humping her she'd just squat down and wait till "buddy" tired out.As I understand(I was traveling at the time) the neighbors ambushed her and after throwing a baseball bat at her ran her over.She was 16 at the time,and very healthy,could ve maybe lived a few more years

[GraphiteGum]

@EDtheIslander I'm so sorry D: They Must've been terrible neighbours.. they should get what's coming to them!!

[EDtheIslander]

@GraphiteGum As I hear it,the daughter shot the dad in the head,and "all hell broke loose"in that house,so that's that.About the Scottie,even though they're very independent they do like pleasing they're master.With a little patience,and some obediente training you'll experience awesome results.My Scottie would do hand stands on command,believe me they are very smart and capable dogs.

[TimmyGal]

I used to have a scottie. I named her Misty. I want another one too, she was so much fun!

[TakerBride777]

cn u plz put the code back?

[DeAmazonia]

See the Welsh terrier zip about!

[Jeroenoman]

Dogs with mustaches are just awesome.

[wBundlesofJoyw]

@Jeroenoman Or should you call it Brostache?

[albertbird11]

[chickenpoodle009]

The black ones look like Total :3

[xLornaxDaniellex]

i want one SOO bad!!!

they are so cute!

the black ones are adorable :DD

[dooggyloover]

i love Scotties!! i have a 2 yr old Brindle male named Indigo. he is 12 inches tall+weighs 25 lbs. his fav thing 2 do, wich heis super at, is lure coursing, true terrier instincs kick in when he sees that white thing flying across the field!!!

[lizzimy]

I've had two Scotties. MacKenzie was my first and she was very protective and a tough little cookie.

I now have had Daphnie for 9 years and she's the exact opposite. Loves people, super sweet, and lovable.

[Dejanira07]

adorable ... looks simulary miniature schnauzer ... although miniature are higher

[jdymes101101]

just like fainting goats lol

[louisvilleslugger]

Had a Scottie. His name was Edinburgh, Eddie for short. Loved long walks, slept under the covers with me but afraid of lightning and fire crackers.

[ElectricEdgewave192]

lol scotties r like the dog embodiment of the scots people

[Random22222y]

@ElectricEdgewave192 you mean independent, tough and resourceful? I'd say you're right!

[bigredchevytruck]

My old neighbor had a Scotty named Rags that seemed to live forever! This dog lived to be like 16 years old.

[Finadingdong]

I have a scottie pup and it is his first snowy christmas he is called diesel, check out my channel to see him

[spethstation]

I love Scotties! I've had Scotties all my life (Woozle, Meg, Duff, Willie, and Dixie). All of them have been fiercely loyal and great companions. But they're stubborn! I've never had a Scottie that's liked another dog. If you're a human, though, you'll get along just fine! Willie is a scaredy-cat, though. :)

[shannon2leanne37]

The saying on the video about Scotties being so smart and only staying off of the couch when being watched is so incredibly true! My Scottie, Chloe, is constantly going on the kitchen table to steal food but only when everyone else is in the other room!

[warftrat87]

I have had two Scotties in my day... Scottie was the first one and he was a sweet dog! Kept to himself but would come when you called him. And the one I have now Grady... is the best dog I have ever had... loves to kiss, and makes me happy to be home! I also got a Westie too! Black and White...

[linder516]

I have had two Scotties, the first one was fierce, loyal and tenacious. The Scottie I have now is SWEET, SWEET oh and sweet! Both Scotties are girls with very different personalities. The fierce scottie was a formidable defender the current scottie is lover.

[Hobinator17]

my scottie was trapped in the woods for 5 days straight with no food or water twice, was hit by a car, and got a disease from a tick, but he is fine. its amazing all of the torture he can take. if you have a girl and a boy scottie, like me, you will see the differences immidiatley

[lkpcs]

wow. my scottie (karro) is a coward (unfortunatley)

he has ear problems. but ure dog is a straight survivior.

[katielp2693]

i have had two boy scotties with very different personalities. What's the difference in gender?

[Hobinator17]

the girls like to keep to themselves, and as they age, they will get sort of grumpy.

with a boy, they are very energetic and fun loving through most of their lives.

[katielp2693]

My older male (sadly passed on) was very playful and loyal but only to his family. If there was any other person or animal he would rip there head off. My younger one (now 6) is friendly to all once he know we want them around :) Despite their problems I love every bit of them :) <3

[noscrazy]

i have a scottie hes so cute. but he is a bullie to my yorkshire terrier lol. he weighhs 1.6 stone and his only 7 months old.

[emoxbarbiex3]

i have a cairn[sp?] scotty mix that we rescued from the pound and she is just the sweetest dog i've ever met. i love the expression on her face whenever she does something bad. you can't help but immediately forgive her.

^^

[andrewdeej]

My scottie (Polly) is the best!  We "rescued" her from a pet store at one year old, never out of the cage. She is our fifth dog, the others are schnauzers, but the minute she came in the house...she was boss. Gentle as can be and has never shown signs of aggression EXCEPT on a leash, when she turns into a monster around strange dogs.

[wsrioudom]

I have one he is the best dog ever!!!

[EMOCHICK2411]

i got one of those

[dawnranaej]

I think they're cute too!!!!!!!

[Calibretto9]

A friend recently got a Scottie and I really dislike it. The dog is not intelligent, smell awful despite frequent bathing, and cowardly. Also, I don't know if it runs in the breed, but it can't be away from people for more than 5 seconds, which is annoying.

[katielp2693]

I have a scottie named MacPherson (Mac) and he suffers from scottie cramp too :( I wish there was some home remedy, even though it is said not to hurt them its hard to watch. When we play it slows him down and I can just tell when he gets that look in his eye that he wishes he could keep up and continue to play but he know he shouldd settle down :( any suggestions? He wouldnt like accupuncture I know that!

[dhals1m]

i had a scottish terrier/poodle mix. he was the smallest dog in the house and he acted like he was the biggest one. he wrestled and bullied all our bigger dogs. he was sweet but was sometimes mean and would nip at you if you tried to pick him up when he was sleeping. they have long lives as well. ours made it all the way to 18 and he was still energetic and barked all the time lol. great dogs not so much for little kids but great around older children/teens.

[Suikoden26]

My Scottie is great around kids and animals. He's never shown any sign of aggression and doesn't even defend himself when other dogs attack him :(  He's lovely and very intelligent, more so than many people!

[TheAndrewandjill1]

The video is great! Scotties are great! They are the best and ours is highly intelligent. He shows his affection in many ways!! He is cute when he rolls on his back, playgul when he wants to play ball and highly sociable with other dogs. He loves walking with his friends: a lab, a cocker spaniel and two staffs. !

[elorasmom]

Scotties are the absolute smartest dog on the planet... They are the most stubborn as well!! They use logic to figure out their problems which are usually how to do things you don't want them to!! LOL I've had a lot of dogs but none even come close to the Scottie for personality!!

[NicolasJz]

The Scottish Terrier ranks only 65th on Stanley Coren's "Intelligence of dogs", suggesting it is less intelligent than the average dog breed.

[elorasmom]

That is because the Coren system measures intelligence on what humans want the dog to do, not what the dog decides to do on its' own.

Obviously because it was bred to be an independent hunter, the independence itself should be considered a desirable trait. Hence it should be considered when one figures intelligence...

[zubery]

Not true - this is what the Coren tests are based on: * Adaptive Intelligence (learning and problem-solving ability). This is specific to the individual animal and is measured by canine IQ tests. * Instinctive Intelligence. This is specific to the individual animal and is measured by canine IQ tests. * Working/Obedience Intelligence. This is breed dependent.

[synthapete]

Actually, the only criteria are response to commands.

[RobbytheLion]

@elorasmom The measure also doesn't take into account the wolf. Wolves have a bigger brain capacity and are more intelligent than any dog, yet they would rate poorly if they were judged on how well they learn tricks or follow human cues. The more primitive dog breeds are seen as less intelligent just because they are more wolf than human, and that's not fair! Alot of Scotties are smarter than alot of people.

[Ksieznadeszczu]

@RobbytheLion yYeah my dog does pretty much any trick you want her to do... yet she still ALWAYS runs into the wall when she is running around the corner (shes smart, but not wall smart haha & shes not blind either)... she's a mix between german shepard & golden retriever & shes been with us for 10 years so she should have the layout of the house pretty downpat by now.

[elorasmom]

As a person who has owned hundreds of dogs, groomed hundreds more and boarded even hundreds more... Many including those which the Stanley Coren intelligence quota is the highest!!

I can tell you that my Scotties can outfigure them in any problem you have!!

The system is unfair to these superior little dogs!

Thus - my bumper sticker - MY SCOTTISH TERRIER IS SMARTER THAN YOUR HONOR STUDENT.

[S0mara]

i have a 2 year old scottie Female namedd Starr!!!

[pazzopony]

I love scotties! I have two scotties; their names are Kika and her daughter Madly. I have a lab, Camila. Madly and Camila are best friends. Sometimes I think that Madly believe that is a lab too. Madly is really, really crazy!

[DogsAreMyBestFriends]

They are very cute! love em'

[GAMERFREAK10]

my scottie is named Greer meaning alert and watchful in scotland as scotties are and most of the tome when you walk in the door shes all over doesnt matter who it is she loves everyone that will scratch her ear for 2 seconds

[hedrickhmae]

Very nice.I am a both a Pitbull and a Scottie fan

[Skwissgar25]

right now i have a yorkie terrier but i love to have a scottie.

[lonestarlawyer]

Growing up with Scotties, I love this breed so much!! My Scottie, Glen, is a rescue and we love him to pieces!!

[bigblueowx]

@lonestarlawyer may i have a piece too?

[Dewleys]

cute, super cute ;)

[WinstonSG72]

i love scotties, i have a 14week old pup and he is independent to the point of lunacy lol

[chio73]

the mine named Negro (black) and no is a racist name,, :)

[madtvguy02]

I LOVE scottish terriers :D

getting one this spring,

Wewt :DD

[anelbow]

My scottie girl, Kerry, is the cuddliest, sweetest, little thing. Don't get me wrong, she is the boss in the house, but when she looks at us with those dark, almond eyes, she gets whatever she wants.

[fizzbomb64]

I describe my Scottie as a "dog with a cat personality": independent, obedient only when you're watching and is 100% convinced the world revolves (and adores) around him. He loves when you pet or scratch him, but won't come "looking" for attention. My other dogs (a lab and a mixed-breed) are much more "attention-needy". I can't imagine ever not having a Scottie!

[gmhawk13]

Thats awesome because I really want a scottie

[whaddyahear]

WELL i have had two scotties & they are WONDERFUL dogs!

[whaddyahear]

my doggie is a scottie and i disagree he is the sweetest thing ever

[blooblah4]

my friend has one

[balto4]

Mother used to have one,must say I'm not crazy on them,he had A LOT of health problems,and i find terriers too snappy,although he was friendly the only terriers I really like are the bully ones
