This is a long video at half an hour, but it’s a fun look at all the different terrier types as the judge runs through the breeds in alphabetical order.
I’ve got to say that I find the Bedlingtons and Dandy Dinmonts kind of goofy while I love the look of Norfolks and Norwichs. (Remember the reader tip to tell the difference — with their pointy ears Norwichs are like witches in in pointy hats.)
It was also interesting to learn that Lomondview Clementina goes by Phoebe for short, was born in Scotland and now lives in Miami, which doesn’t seem like a real Scottie town. As she was strutting her stuff, the commentator noted, “They are not big listeners” and “She looks a little bossy.” Agree or disagree?
How too about that description of Scottie owners as having to be “confident enough to love a dog that openly feels superior to its owner?” Again, agree or disagree?
It seems that being naughty exuberant doesn’t disqualify you from winning Best of Breed at Westminster.
The Scottie News would like to congratulate Clementina, a true terrier, on winning this year’s Scottish Terrier crown.
Felicitations too to GCH Friendship Hill Stars And Stripes, the first dog in the video who won Best of Opposite Sex, and GCH Mcvan’s Be Bop Baby, the fourth contestant, who takes home the Award of Merit.
Finally, we liked the Subaru ad too.

Named after the famous Fala, Angus Fala is alarmed by the controversial new video of the former first dog
Here’s the original source.
This morning, I bought the Illusion Dog Collar & Leash Set: By Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan (Medium Black)
.
As I’ve mentioned before, Bridget has never been the world’s greatest walker, and lately, she’s been going through a bad phase. Even the morning walk, where she usually bounces along, has become something of an ordeal lately. She just doesn’t want to move.
As a result, I’ve decided to try out this special Dog Whisperer collar. At $50 it’s not cheap, so if it doesn’t work, it’s being returned.
I’m a little bit concerned that it seems to be designed for dogs who pull out in front as opposed to a Scottish Terrier who just refuses to budge, but we’re going to give it a go.
If anyone else has tried it, please chime in and let the Scottie News know about your experience.
I’ll keep you all updated on how the Illusion collar works out.

Is it possible for me to ask a question? We have our newest addition, Lola. Shes a Scottish Terrier… Shes just over 6 months old and still has floppy ears? I’ve been trying to do some research about why her ears won’t sit up. Do you have any links that you suggest I look at?
Sorry, I don’t have any links but I do have expert readers, who will almost certainly chime in with the answer(s).
