Oh My Dawg! I
finally figured out what kind of terrier Scruffy is. I was trolling the local shelter websites, not that I'm getting another dog, but I look at the babies there every now and then. On one of them I saw a Scruffy dog, like my Scruffy Girl and it said that dog was believed to be a Dandie Dinnmont Terrier. Here's a pic of them in a non groomed state:
I have been wondering about her long body and poof on the head and here we have it - part of the breed. And guess what all my Scottie friends? This breed is of Scottish origin! How cool is that?!

Of course, I am not sure if Scruffy is a pure breed but I don't care. I saved her life and gave her a good home with Nutjob Mr. Fox and two cats to chase and lots of bones and toys and hugs and rubs and love. I have a feeling she is mixed with something else but I think the biggie is the Dandie. I love her so much!
