cairn terrier (sh)




Breed of terrier developed in Scotland to rout animals that prey on game.

The modern breed's characteristics are carefully patterned on those of the dog's ancestor, a 17th-century terrier of the Isle of Skye. This short-legged dog has a short, broad face. Its coarse coat is usually bluish gray, tan, or pale yellowish brown. Generally active, hardy, alert, and spirited, it is valued as a pet and watchdog. It stands 9-10 in. (23-25.5 cm) high and weighs about 13-14 lbs (6-6.5 kg).
