EASTMAN - ABOUT US

At
Eastman, we have dedicated ourselves to breeding the very best Scottish
Terrier possible, always keeping in mind the standard and what the breed
was developed for. In our quest for the best Scottie, we are aware
that a Scottie must be beautiful, but should always be healthy and able
to live with people as a great companion.
Scotties are not for everyone. They are a game little terrier with a mind
of their own. They cannot be forced to do anything, but they are
very trainable with love and rewards. They like to please, but on
their own terms.
They do require regular bathing
and frequent grooming. Scotties must be brushed regularly. The distinctive
beard and profile is trimmed to that shape.
A Scottie requires an enclosed area, fenced or walled, as they usually
will go out and not return
if they catch the smell of another animal.
The word terrier comes from
the latin word terra which means earth,
and they are earth dogs, and
great hunters.
Our puppies
are born in the bedroom, reared with care, and given plenty
of fresh air and exercise
when they are older.
