If we don’t copy and paste selected things HOW are we going to answer your questions? and How are you going to learn?

Temperament:
The Scottie is brave, alert, proud, confident, loyal and dignified. While friendly and playful as puppies, the mature Scottish Terrier is quite independent and self reliant and can even be quite crusty and stubborn at times. Therefore it is important to start socializing and obedience training the Scottie while it is a puppy and continue through adolescence. Training will be difficult and you will never achieve instant obedience but you can get a reluctant obedience to most commands. Scotties love to play, so make sure you add play and rewards to your training. Scotties seem to think they are large dogs and can be quite feisty toward other dogs, no matter how large. The Scottish Terrier does best with older children. Scotties are aloof from everyone except their immediate family and are not friendly towards strangers. Scotties make good watchdogs. Scottish Terriers do best with experienced owners who have the patience to gently train and bring out the best in this proud breed.

Exercise:
Scotties are sporty small dogs that love to play ball games. They also really enjoy taking their owners for long walks. Scottish Terriers make good apartment dogs and are relatively calm and quiet indoors.

Grooming:
Show dogs need a fair amount of professional grooming including regular plucking and hand stripping of the coat. Scotties coats are kept long for the show ring. Companion dogs can be clipped twice per year to reduce the amount of grooming. The Scottie’s coat should be combed and brushed three times per week with special attention being paid to the whiskers and bottom. Strip and hand pluck the dead hair in the coat and bathe this breed about every 3 months.

Health Considerations:
The Scottie can be expected to live for 12 to 14 years. The most common genetic disease is a mild bleeding disorder called von Willebrands disease. Other common disorders include: eye diseases such as cataracts and lens luxation; atopy (which is an allergy like hay fever); Cystinuria (which involves stones in the urine); pulmonic stenosis heart disease; Craniomandibular osteopathy or Scottie jaw (which is abnormal jaw bone growth), Scottie cramp (leg spasms which don’t seem to hurt the dog); and dental problems. Scottie buyers should insist on seeing the breeding parents Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) test results for von Willebrands disease and Scottie jaw and also the Canine Eye Registry (CERF) recent ophthalmologists report for eye disorders.

The Top 20 Absolutely Most Famous Dogs

I’ve been compiling a list of famous dogs for my pet numerology website for some time now.  I know which my favorites are, but I wondered which are the most famous overall.  There were so many great famous dogs that I did five alphabetical gourps, with a final round of the top most famous dogs.  This is that final round, and I’ll reveal which are the most famous of these terrific dogs.

The top twenty most famous of all dogs (based on online chatter) are:

20. Goofy – from the classic Walt Disney cartoons

19. Chloe – a Chihuahua who is a lead character in the movie “Beverly Hills Chihuahua”

18. Mr. Peabody – who appeared in “Peabody’s Improbable History” cartoons with his boy Sherman in the 1960s

17. Benji – who starred of a series of “Benji” movies

16. Buddy – a Labrador Retriever who belonged to US President Bill Clinton

15. Gromit – from the “Wallace and Gromit” animated short films

14. Tinkerbell – a Chihuahua belonging to socialite Paris Hilton

13. Dogbert – from the “Dilbert” comic strip

12. Snowy – the White Wire Fox Terrier traveled with Tintin in the “Adventures of Tintin” comic books

11. Barney – a Scottish Terrier belonging to US President George W. Bush

10. Lassie – the Collie is a character seen in movies since the 1930s

9. Santa’s Little Helper – the Simpson’s family dog on the animated TV series “The Simpsons”

8. Bo – the Portuguese Water Dog belonging to US President Barack Obama and the First Family

7. Snoopy – the Beagle is a character in the “Peanuts” comic strip

6. Bolt – the white German Shepherd who is the title character of the animated movie “Bolt”

5. Eddie – the Jack Russell Terrier from the TV series “Frasier”

4. Odie – from the “Garfield” comic strip

3. Dug – the talking dog from the Pixar Animated movie “Up”

2. Scooby Doo – from the “Scooby-Doo” cartoons and movies

…and the most famous dog is…

1. Marley – the Labrador Retriever who is the title character in the book and movie “Marley and Me”

So a nice mix of breeds in the top twenty with two Yellow Labs (Marley and Buddy), two Chihuahuas (Tinkerbell and Chloe), a Portuegses Water Dog (Bo), a German Shepherd (Bolt), a Beagle (Snoopy), a Colie (Lassie), a Jack Russell Terrier (Eddie), a Scottish Terrier (Barney), and a White Wire Fox Terrier (Snowy).

I was a little surprised by the order of the top twenty.  I always think Snoopy will be the most famous, but he was down at number seven.  I’m sure Marley and Scooby Doo benefit from having their names in the title of their movie, book, or TV series.

Surprisingly, five of the top twenty dogs are real life dogs, as fictional dogs tend to be more famous than their real world counterparts.  I’m sure it doesn’t hurt that most of these dogs have had their own books, movies, or extended press coverage.

I compiled this list by searching for the dog names listed on a number of search engines and ranking them by the number of web pages, discussion forums, photos, videos, etc that are available online.

The Continuation: Famous People and their PAWpular Dogs ? Presidential Pets

This is the continuation of first part of the Famous People and their Pawpular Dogs featuring the Presidential Pets.  Most of the US presidents are pooch fans so now it’s time to meet more of these pets, to know their breeds and know their names.

Calvin Coolidge had a number of dogs as compared to other presidents.  He owned various breeds and gave them cute names.  He had White Collies named Rob Roy and Prudence Prim and he also had a pair of Chow Chows named Tiny Tim and Blackberry.  He also had a couple of Collies which he called Ruby Rouch and Bessie.  Coolidge also loved terriers so he took care of Peter Pan, a Terrier and Paul Pry, an Airedale Terrier.  He had four more pooches known as Calamity Jane, a Shetland Sheepdog; Boston Beans, a Bulldog; King Cole, a German Shepherd; and Palo Alto, a Bird Dog.

These two next former presidents were also big dog fans.  First up is Herbert Hoover who was reported to have had nine dogs of different breeds.  He owned King Tut (Belgian Shepherd), Pat (German Shepherd), Big Ben and Sonnie (Fox Terriers), Glen (Scotch Collie), Yukonan (Eskimo dog), Patrick (Irish Wolfhound), Eaglehurst Gillette (Setter) and Weejie (Norwegian Elkhound).  Next is one of the most popular presidents in US history, Franklin D. Roosevelt.  He had seven four-pawed friends namely Fala (Scottish Terrier), Majora (German Shepherd), Meggie (Scottish Terrier), Winks (Llewellyn Setter), Tiny (Old English Sheepdog), President (Great Dane), and Blaze (Bullmastiff).

Next in line are Harry S. Truman who had two canine friends,  Feller (Cocker Spaniel) and Mike (Irish Terrier); and Dwight Eisenhower who had a Weimaraner called Heidi.  Like the first three presidents mentioned above, John F. Kennedy had a long line of pets too which are mostly dogs.  He had Gaullie (Poodle), Pushinka (mutt), Charlie (Welsh Terrier).  Pushinka and Charlie had four children called Butterfly, White Tips, Blackie, and Streaker.  JFK had three more dogs, Shannon (Irish Cocker Spaniel), Wolf (mutt), and Clipper (German Shepherd).

Moreover, Lyndon Johnson was a beagle lover.  He had four beagles which he fondly called, Him, Her, Edgar and Freckles.  He also had Blanco (White Collie) and Yuki (mongrel). Richard Nixon had four dogs, Vicki (Poodle), Pasha (Terrier), King Timahoe (Irish Setter), and Checkers (Cocker Spaniel) who had a major role in his electoral career.  Gerald Ford had a Golden Retriever called Liberty who then had a pup which he called Misty.  Jimmy Carter was reported to have had Grits (Border Collie) and Lewis Brown (Afghan Hound).

Ronald Reagan had a collection of dogs too. He owned Lucky (Bouvier des Flandres), Rex (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel), Victory (Golden Retriever), Peggy (Irish Setter), Taca (Siberian Husky), and Fuzzy (Belgian Sheepdog).  On the other hand, George H.W. Bush only had one dog, Millie (Springer Spaniel) who just then had puppies.  Same as Bush, Bill Clinton also had one pooch, Buddy, a Chocolate Labrador Retriever.  Unlike his father, George W. Bush had three dogs, two Scottish Terriers named Barney and Miss Beazley, and an English Springer Spaniel named Spot Fetcher.  Lastly, the current president Barack Obama owns Bo, a Portuegese water dog, popularly known as the First Dog of the United States.

Now, we’ve met the presidential dogs.  It’s nice to know that despite their busy schedule in running a nation, these presidents are still able to take time in giving petsafe care to their pets.

Dogs Are Celebrities Favourite Pets

 

Cats may be the most popular pets in the world but the most famous people in the world own dogs.

 

Queen Elizabeth I1 owns a pack of 10 corgi dogs. President Obama owns a dog. The King of Thailand – a country famous for its cats – owns a dog. Bill Clinton owns a dog; even Paris Hilton parades with her chihuahua. There’s a long list of the famous and celebrated who are dog owners.

 

While dogs are the second most popular pet in the world I wonder why the very famous don’t choose cats. I think it’s because dogs are docile and controllable. Cats are far more independent creatures. Dogs can be trained and do what they are told but the independent feline does not take orders easily.

 

Belonging to famous owners also makes the dogs famous. Corgis were basically unheard of outside of Wales until the British royal family started keeping them in 1934. Queen Elizabeth’s public outings with her corgis made them world famous. Because of this royal association the short legged corgi became a popular household pet.

 

American presidents’ dogs are guaranteed to be famous. But whereas I always notice them on photo shoots I never seem to remember their names, only the breeds. George W Bush had two Scottish terriers and a mongrel. His dad had two spaniels. Bill Clinton had a Labrador and a cat. President Obama has a Portuguese water dog.

 

So why do royals, presidents and celebrities choose dogs to be part of their public profile? Is there something socially important about having a dog? Maybe the dog represents an essential part of family and famous people like to connect with the family image. Maybe it’s because people who have pets are recognised as nice people and everyone wants to be thought of as nice.

 

Whatever the reason, it’s good for dogs, especially if the owners love them.
