Cairn Terrier

Hailing from the Scottish Highlands, the Cairn Terrier is a lively and cheerful breed that is known to make friends everywhere they go. They are outgoing and tend to enjoy socializing with new people. Their warm nature makes them wonderful family pets. Often referred to simply as Scotch Terriers, they are closely related to the Scottie (Scottish Terrier) and Westie (West Highland Terrier) and are often mistaken for one another because of their similar appearances. The Cairn Terrier's wiry coat is hypoallergenic, making them a great choice for people with allergies.
