“If you have a dog sitting on your desk, it’s always better if he has a nice scent,” said Gail Marcus, 60, who brings her dog, an 8½-pound Pomeranian named Nicky, to her office in Long Island City, Queens. (Nicky may have a small body “but he has a lot of coat,” she explained.)
Ms. Marcus sprays him with a scent called Sexy Beast, which she discovered at Henri Bendel’s about a year ago for $65 for a 3.4-ounce bottle. (There is also a limited holiday bling version of Sexy Beast, with encrusted Swarovski crystals, which retails for $850.)
We need a Consumer Reports style test for this to see if it actually works. And, oh yeah, it’s 100% vegan, according to the website.
The editor of the Scottish Terrier and Dog News completely understands why terriers have the reputation they do for being hard headed: they deserve it. Before she acquired Bridget just over a year ago, the Scottie News editor had different non-terrier breeds of dogs and she can state authoritatively that they were much easier to train. Yet the editor of the Scottish Terrier and Dog News remains determined and she wants to share some inspiration with other Scottie dog owners who face the same plight.
YouTube has several examples of well-trained Scottish Terriers starting with this anonymous Scot
The ubiquitous Baily can also be seen hula hooping obediently as Riley, an older gentleman, looks on
And then, of course, there are Boone and Kenzie, the most famous of the well-behaved Scotties
Even Spencer, whose owner describes him as “kinda dumb” silly (When Spencer’s owner saw that he was featured here, she changed the headline so we have followed her lead) compared to her other dogs, Mackenzie the Dachshund and April the Boston Terrier, has mastered the “bang” trick”
Nov 6, 2008 Update:See video of Barney Bush, the first dog biting a Reuters reporter plus the stories about Barney the Scottish Terrier that you’ve never seen before and pictures of young Jackie Kennedy with a Scottie dog.
Being the White House dog strikes the Scottish Terrier and Dog News as a pretty good gig. You have a huge house and grounds, plenty of staff to spoil you (apart from Karl Rove), access to Air Force One, fame, groupies, you name it.
Meanwhile, across the pond, another loyal Scottie News reader reports that in the new BBC documentary about the Queen, Barney and Miss Beazley are shown as they get set to meet the monarch. Alas, no relevant excerpts are on YouTube and, while ABC has bought the U.S. rights, the date for airing the show hasn’t been set yet.
The publisher and editor of the Scottish Terrier and Dog News is not a sentimental type but there are a few things that are sure to bring tears to her eyes. Among them are weddings, funerals and dog rescue stories. There’s just something about an animal resuce that turns out well that gives you faith. So, here, from the Scottish Terrier Club of America are the rescue tales of Miss Fiona, McGregor and Meg. Pass the hankies please.
Presenting “The Stick and the Scottish Terriers.” It reminds us a bit of Mommie Dearest, who was, of course, a Scottie dog owner in real life, as we previously reported.

Mrs Astor had dogs as well-behaved as herself, silky and smooth-haired to pose for photographers or to have their portraits in her 19th-century collection on the staircase of Holly Hill, her weekend retreat. Mrs Helmsley had a Maltese bitch called Trouble, tied with pink ribbons and small enough to stuff in a purse, who sniffed at diners’ legs in her restaurants and nipped their heels until they bled.
This shot of former first lady, Grace Coolidge, with Rob Roy the dog and Barney the White House Scottish Terrier, reminds us that are Beltway insider readers have been awfully quiet lately. Can there really be nothing happening on the D.C. dog front? Is everyone totally absorbed by the mideast talks?
