This is definitely not the type of beach where you need a coat in the middle of summer. I guess it’s one of the perks enjoyed by Scottie expats like Zorro and Zeeka who make their home in Bahrain. I once met a guy who had brought his Scottish Terrier along to the middle east and he got by by taking the dog for two long walks — one early in the morning and one late at night.
He is the first Scottish Terrier ever to represent his country in an international competition. According to the Zuercher Unterlaender newspaper, Scotties’ short legs make it as hard for them to beat other breeds at agility contests as it is for a plowhorse to win a horse race. Hitch’s owner and coach Bettina Stemmler says, however, “Hitch is an exceptional dog who loves to compete.” Even if winning this and other competitions would be difficult, above all, she just wants to have fun.
Rest assured the Scottish Terrier and Dog News will be cheering for you.
Sheryl in Singapore wants to know if anyone has any tips on where she can find a Wheaten Scottie. She writes:
Your scottish terrier website is absolutely wonderful and really pays tribute to scottie dogs and their lovely owners everywhere. My scottie and I hail all the way from sunny Singapore and we enjoy the website immensely.
We’re currently considering getting a wheaten scottie as well but scottie breeders and owners seem to be quite rare in Singapore! If you could put a little shout-out on your website for scottie owners in Singapore to email me, it would be really great.
Anyway, here are some photos of my 4-year old black beauty, Abbey. It would be a real treat if you could feature her on the site too! Abbey was re-homed into our family in Feb this year. I doubt if you can tell from these photos but Abbey arrived to us in terrible condition – her hair was falling out in big bunches, she was grossly overweight, and in desperate need of 2 baths and a haircut.
Yes, that really is Abbey above. Looks like Sheryl should consider running some type of rehab clinic. Here’s her address if you know anything about the availability of wheaten Scotties in southeast Asia or if you need a good dog spa: chere_remy@hotmail.com
Why let a puddle get in the way of your game of fetch? This is Clara the Scottish Terrier with Molly the West Highland Terrier on Christmas Day in Australia. Wonder if they threw a turkey on the barby afterwards.

Can anyone explain why these Russian Scotties are dressed like this? After all, I’m Canadian and we don’t feel the need to outfit our terriers in pajama like outdoor garb — even in winter. What’s going on? Curioser and curioser. We’ve discovered another video by the same cinematographer. We’re sure that that infamous closeted poodle-lover, ...
It seems like the Swiss take their dog agility training as seriously as their mountain climbing, muddy hiking boots and all. Hitchcock appears to be related to Flash, whose athletic prowess has also been showcased on the Scottie News.
