The Scottish Terrier Silhouette
The Scottish Terrier is a small, compact dog, with a distinctly distinct look. As a member of the Terrier breed, it is a high-energy, alert, and playful dog. Like other terrier breeds, it is prone to wear and tear, so it is essential to care for its appearance. The Scottish Terrier’s wiry coat, erect ears, and pointed ears are the hallmarks of this breed.
In 1885, the Scottish Terrier was recognized as a breed by the American Kennel Club (AKC). Since that time, the terrier’s appearance has been molded into various dog accessories, including collars, leashes, and crate covers. The breed’s short legs also make it easy to move, but the full-grown adult Scottie can stand 10 to 11 inches tall and weigh up to twenty pounds.
The Scottish Terrier was originally bred as a fierce, agile, and intelligent hunting dog in Scotland. The first Scottish terrier was named Dake on Sept. 15, 1884. In the United States, the Scottish terrier received more fan mail than any president! It’s no surprise then that the Scottish terrier silhouette is so popular in textiles. In addition to its popularity as a hunting dog, the Scottish Terrier silhouette is also popular among textile makers.
