Inspired by this other fine Westie cake.

I wonder if the guy above is coconut as that’s one of my favourite cakes.

… and you discovered a Scottish Terrier on the kitchen counter.

Bombastic Angus by Anita Clapp

But how did he get up there? His owner, Anita, answers:

He has a system. He climbs onto the sofa, onto the arm of the sofa and then onto the counter top where I keep the cat dish so he and his other canine brothers won’t bother it. (perhaps I need to rethink that!! LOL) I’ve occasionally caught him at the cat dish…..but this venture was something he had, to my knowledge, never done before! I do know that he is an avid mouser, and we occasionally do have a mouse…..so that might be the explanation. But to be honest, that is the cat food bin he has his nose on.

The Scottie News found Harley’s story at the Scottish Terrier Emergency Care Scheme (STECS). We’ve never heard of a Scottie living to the ripe old age of 19 before, but it makes sense he hails from Fife.

Breeding outside the limited pool, by crossing two breeds, increases the variety of genes with the potential for advantageous health-related results. For example, pugs are a very popular type of purebred dog, but suffer from respiratory problems due to their pushed-in noses. The AKC breed standard for the pug says “the muzzle is short, blunt, square . . . ”
