"The Abominable Snow Cairn"

(From 12/07/06)

It is not as it appears, but it is perhaps the reason why Cairn terriers aren't as popular as some breeds. You might not believe this, but Greg Perry, one of Hattie's humans tells me that this dog is not attacking her kennelmate: she is playing! Having lived with two of these myself, I believe him absolutely.

"The Abominable Snow Cairn"

Clanmarr's Steele Princess, aka Hattie, lives with Greg and Val Perry and rules with iron paw and formidable teeth over all she surveys.

But isn't it fun to fake people out with graphics and text? So around this most classic pose, I have built a new Cafe Press Boutique. Three designs. Click on links for examples of each.

• The above. Hattie the Yeti-Cairn in all her toothy splendor. Check out this cuddly throw pillow!
  
• One I call Cairn Terrier Snowjob, which the image sans text. The picture really is worth at least a thousand words
• The Hell-Fury Bitch line contains greeting cards and two-sided apparel and suchthat quotes William Cosgrove: "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

Check out this and the other new concoctions at Holy Terrier Dog Designs.

Also be sure to visit Crofters' Dream, which features the dogs of Greg and Val Perry. Besides Kula, RN, Hattie lives with one of Geordie's -- he's a few scrolls down on the "Related Cairn Terriers page"-- grandsons, CH. Cairngorm Coffee Tea or Me, JE aka "Kona."
