Scottish Terriers are a breed of dog best known for their dark black fur and their die-hard spirit. A Scottish Terrier, or Scottie, is a small Terrier. It has a muscular body and often appears to be barrel chested. Its traditional haircut is shaggy-to-the-ground. Scotties are fast and were originally bred in England. Their nickname is "little diehard" from James III of England.
