Although this dog breed is small, it is still very feisty. This is a character trait it shares with its other terrier cousins. And much like with the other terriers, the Scottish Terrier needs early socialization as well. If not socialized or trained properly from an early age, they will attack other animals, since they do not fair well with other small pets. Firm handling is necessary for this little dog, since they do have a dominant character and a mind of their own. When trained at a young age – founded on mutual respect – this can become an obedient dog. They are somewhat sensitive, and should be given firm but positive training. Reprimanding them will get you nowhere. They are sensitive to the tone of your voice as much as to your body language, so do keep this in mind when training and reprimanding them!

That’s right! This little dog was nickamed “Diehard”…as far back as the 19th century. A certain Earl of Dumbarton, who lived in Scottland was an avid fan of this little Terrier breed. He had a huge pack of them and noticing time and time again, how brave and courageous this litte dog was -irrrespective of its size- named them lovingly: Diehards. The Earl went as far as naming his Regiment after this little dog breed as well. They were called the Dumbarton Diehards, giving inspiration to the whole Regiment. The dog became a mascot for the Earl as well as for his Regiment. Curious, courageous and intelligent, the Scottish Terrier’s middle name is most definately: “Diehard”.
