celeb lookalikes
Puss
Puss lookalike
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.
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?

A few weeks back, Scottie News challenged readers to find a celeb lookalike for this Scottish Terrier. In addition to the comments on the original post, the following suggestions and photos arrived via email.
Lauren nominated James Dean as a match.
Scottie News says, "Va va va vroom!"
Virginia thought of Steve McQueen.
Scottie News says, "We especially like the leather."
Cocoanal wrote: “If You take the High Road and I take the Enfield, then I’ll be in Scotland afore ye!”
And the winner is … the REAL Big Mac with Snoopy, who has the missing goofy factor those other hotties lack. Hotness may get you farthest in real life, but it won’t let you grab the lookalike trophy from a deserving dog at the Scottie News.
Please send us your favourite photo of your dogs, REAL Big Mac, and we will attempt to match them with their celeb lookalikes.

From Peru, Rosemarie — a faithful Scottish Terrier News reader and fur Mom to the fabulously talented Dartagnan — writes that she tried to find a celebrity lookalike for her handsome lad. “We had a family & friends on line contest.The question: Who smiles like Dartagnan?” The possible answers:
a. David Copperfield
b. Antonio Banderas
c. Johnny Depp
Clockwise from top left: Johnny Depp, Antonio Banderas, Dartagnan and David Copperfield
Dartagnan plus two versions of David Copperfield
Antonio Banderas, Dartagnan and David Copperfield
“And the winner is… David Copperfield. I hope you enjoy it!!!”
Love it, Rosemarie. And I do agree with the David Copperfield verdict. In the shot directly above, he has the same goofy smile as Dartagnan.
Now, why don’t you get Dartagnan to do a serious pose and match him up with Javier Bardem? We’d love to have Javier Bardem on the Scottie News. Maybe even more than Antonio Banderas and Johnny Depp.
As always, dear readers, please keep those shots of Scotties who resemble celebs coming. If I hadn’t sworn never to use the word, I’d say they were awesome.
Oh, forget it, they’re absolutely awesome. 100%.

I have a couple of dead ringers for your Scottie/celebrity lookalike feature — a shaggy Scottie dog and Robert Smith, singer for ’80s rock band The Cure!
I love the Web site, by the way. I am about to own my first Scottie puppy after he’s weaned in September. I’m super jazzed about that.
Suitably brooding
Suitably disaffected
Good luck, Kyle. Maybe you can teach him to sing.
Or maybe not. After all, not everyone can be a rock star. Consider Amelia for example. Her peeps see a resemblance to Colonel Sanders, with whom she shares a lifelong love of chicken.
Bearded girl
Bearded old guy
And speaking of Kentucky Fried Scottish Terrier chickens, don’t forget this.
And if you know of a Scottish Terrier with a human doppelganger, please let the Scottie News know.

Jeremy Brett aka Sherlock Holmes
She's a girl but...
Tegan from Liverpool, one of the Scottie News’ most prolific and insightful commenters, writes: “Having a ginger beard means Kirk doesn’t normally look like Jeremy Brett or Sherlock Holmes … but these two pictures are very alike. I think its the nose and scuffy hair that does it, but also the mood. Anyways, I love them both, (big Holmes fan… Jeremy is classic!)”
Kirk, don’t take it the wrong way, even if you are a girl.
For all the rest of you Holmes fans, here’s the link: Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Granada Television Series (12 DVD)
And if your Scottish Terrier resembles someone famous, send the Scottie News the photographic evidence and make your dog famous too.

Blondie the wheaten Scottie resembles Mike Score from the 80's band "A Flock of Seagulls"
Thanks to Rich for sending this in and reminding us all how epic the eighties truly were. And remember, if your Scottie resembles a celeb, the Scottish Terrier News wants to know.

Expecto Patronum, muggles!!!
Yeah, you're cute too, Daniel
Many thanks to Sweet William the Scot and his peep, Lee, for sending in this photo. I’m kind of “meh” about this whole Harry Potter thing
Since most of my daughter’s friends are out of town for the summer, however, I told her I’d go see the new movie with her. But because I get dizzy at IMAX films and am prone to seasickness, I can’t do the 3D version, which basically makes me useless to her.
Anyway, there you go, that’s my Harry Potter story. The worst of it is that when I counted up all the pages I’d read, I realized I could have read War and Peace
