RIP, Pusuke (1985 – 2011)

The Scottish Terrier and Dog News regrets that today it is the bearer of bad news. Sadly, Harry the Westie, whose antics brightened many a Westie Wednesday, has passed on.

RIP, Harry. The Scottie News would like to extend our deepest sympathies to your peeps including the guy who wrote about you in a way that wasn’t always flattering. From the sounds of it, you two had worked out a pretty good deal.

Scottish Terrier in kilt with bagpipes

Bagpipes for Scottie dogs -- fashion do or don't?

A few weeks back we posted a photo of a very handsome Wheaten Scottish Terrier dressed in traditional garb for Halloween. Many readers inquired where they could buy a similar outfit and, in response,  two other readers suggested Puppy dog Plaids. With the holidays edging ever closer and many Scottie peeps looking to decorate their dogs along with their houses, we thought we’d delve back into the archives to remind everybody of basic doggie fashion dos and don’ts.

Frankly, the Scottish Terrier and Dog News prefers the minimalist look of the Scottie below. Other examples are shown here and here.

And, finally, here is our primer on kilt wearing for dogs, originally drawn up for Robbie Burns day, but just as relevant for Christmas and New Year’s festivities.
