Whimsical Scottish Terriers

VINTAGE UGLY SCOTTIE DOG CHRISTMAS SWEATER

"Vintage Ugly Scottie Dog Christmas Party Sweater"

The sweater may have sold but you can still see it in the Google cache where it’s described as a “Vintage Ugly Scottie Dog Christmas Party Sweater.”

Hmm, don’t they mean “Vintage Scottie Dog Ugly Christmas Party Sweater?”

The Scottie News would also like to add that as Scottish Terrier Christmas sweaters go, this one’s actually pretty good.

Okay, everyone, here’s your weekend challenge. Which famous person does Buster, the wheaten Scottish Terrier, resemble? Click the photo if you need a closer look.

For all you Yanks out there, here’s a Scottie-related Thanksgiving post from the archives of the Scottish Terrier News.

Update: Wallace is back so please go vote for him. Looks like it was a technical glitch and nothing to do with our fervent support.

A number of you have asked what’s going on with Wallace and his bid to win the Fido Casting Call contest – not to mention the specific hacking tips (cough) a Scottish Terrier News reader community provided in an attempt to help the leading  Scottie candidate along.

Thank you so much for your help in advertising Wallace in the Fido
competition. Thanks to you and your followers, Wallace has moved
mountains in the overall rankings, peaking somewhere in the 130 range.

It is with great disappointment that I must announce that thousands of
the top dogs (including Wallace) have been mysteriously removed from
the contest overnight.

I have no idea what has happened, but I thought that I should let you
know. Can you please update your followers about this situation? I am
very grateful for all of their help and they deserve to know what has
happened as well.

My friends and family, along with yourself and your followers have
worked so hard to help Wallace become “top dog” in this contest, and
for that I thank you. I hope that Fido will release an explanation
soon.

If we are not able to get him back in the contest, I will certainly
continue to keep you all updated with some lovely pictures of Wallace.

Thanks,
Stacey

Clearly, this story’s developing so stay tuned.

It’s Sweet William back again.

He’s the Scottish Terrier who seems to have a thing for blockbuster movies. Last week, his peeps wrote:

I thought possibly since the movie Puss in Boots is coming out this week that this was a lookalike.

This picture was taken for Jazzi’s World Taco Day. But, when I saw the way Sweet William The Scot took to the hat, we decided to do another after school reading program for the little tikes. We are reading Puss In Boots and seven other fairy tales. I think Sweet William captures the debonair cat. A dog playing a cat!

Loved yesterday with the Scot in Kilts post. Would like to have a kilt like that for Sweet William the Scot to wear to the ReinDog Parade.

We’ve had a lot of kilt and bagpipes requests so Scottish Terrier News will send an investigative team to look into this. But, in the mean time, we have another lookalike contest for you.

Scottish Terrier sports goatee

A goatee is a non-traditional look for a Scottie

Reader Susan spotted this, “obviously too-cool-for-words dude” with a goatee while she was on vacation in Glenwood Springs, CO. Can Scottie News readers find a lookalike for him?

Last week, Scottie News brought you a strange Scottish Terrier apparition. Several readers came up with great titles for the event/artwork. Reader Sally responded with an apparition of her own.

Yesterday’s tough talk worked. Wallace the Scottish Terrier moved to position 225 from 521 in the Fido Casting Call competition in just one day while countless dollars were raised for Canadian guide dogs.

Let’s keep the voting momentum going. Remember you can vote every day — and multiple times daily if you have separate work and home computers not to mention all those smart phones.

We are the Scottie News and we can beat a bunch of Facebooking teens and twitter addicts voting for their dogs. C’mom everyone, let’s vote Wallace into the double digits today. We’ve come so far since he was ranked 928 last Saturday.

Aroooo!
