re: Anyone here ever owned a Scottish Terrier?

IIRC Westies are always white. White Scotties (different from Westies) are about 15% of Scotties.

Love Scotties, and will probably get one in the future. The allergies are no joke. Usually can be managed with a combination of special food, omega supplements, allergy shots, and or allergy pills. It’s a huge pain and can get really expensive over time.

I currently have a Boston terrier with moderate allergies, and if they get out of control, they lead to ear infections. You have to stay on top of it

And my man has a kilt

I’ve got a Cairn terrier. And she’s a great dog.

We had a blond cairn that was a great dog. Where can I get a blond Carin puppy?

My Boston is great. Best dog I’ve ever had. The only time he ever barks is when a fox gets in the yard

Currently own one and she’s a great dog. Really sweet and fun to play with. They can be stubborn to train well. She’s stubborn in general though

I read a lot before getting one that they like to be by themselves. She’s not that way at all. Wants to meet everyone and be near someone at all times

Cannot stress enough they need to be leashed if outside a fenced yard. They will run off as if playing a game with you.

I’ll second this

We had two when I was growing up as kid. They are well behaved and lovable. Great personalities. They can be a little on the wild side as puppies.

Your boy not only made it his user name but sought out this old thread as well.

I had one growing up. They are smart but not easy to train. They have a mind of their own. They love to play and enjoy a variety of toys.
