- Highlights of my dog’s life:
Maggie is a unique character. I rehomed her when she was nine months old to live with me and my other Scottie Hugo (who lived till the grand old age of 16!) and other various animals.
She had a tricky start in life and so takes a very long time to trust both people and dogs, but she is the most loyal and lovely friend to me.
She has a massive attitude in a tiny body and, like all Scotties, is super stubborn and doesn’t forget a thing!

What our members say about their Scottie
Muffin
Our dog, Muffin, does not live with me but with my parents in Spain but she is the life of the party.
A thing I love about her is her ear game, always looking like an uninterested tough lady with her ears up and long brows until she sees you and her ears drop and you see her brown eyes shining as she comes to you.
A funny story is that she knows exactly when bath time will happen, and will hide for a bit while preparations take place because she absolutely hates it (taking the hair drier out, testing the water temperature etc…), but she knows there is no other way around it and this is when you see a black shadow, with her ears dropped and tail between her back legs, emerging to come to terms with her fate.
Once bathed, we love to play with her and run like mad from one end of the house to the other – with a happy ending as she gets a treat for behaving so well!
That also makes me think of her sharp food radar…but that is another story for another day!
