THE SCOTTISH TERRIER 245 



" Scottie," taken as a whole, is the best companion. He 

 makes a most excellent house-dog, is not too big, does not 

 leave white hairs about all over the place, loves only his master 

 and his master's household, and is, withal, a capable and 

 reliable guard. He is, as a rule, a game, attractive terrier, 

 with heaps of brain power, and from a show point of view 

 there is always some recompense in keeping him, as it will be 

 found he breeds true to type and does not beget offspring of all 

 sorts, shapes, and makes.
