History: The Cairn Terrier has its origins in the Scottish Isle of Skye, where it was used to hunt medium-sized game like badgers, otters, and foxes. Particularly, these dogs excelled in getting otters out of the cairns, or mounds of stone that served as landmarks or memorials. At the time, all terrier breeds in Scotland were classified as Scotch Terriers, but a new classification system separated the Scotch Terriers into two categories: Dandie Dinmont Terriers and Skye Terriers. The Skye classification included Cairn Terriers, among other terrier breeds like Scottish Terriers and West Highland White Terriers. At the time, the three breeds were only distinguished by color, but they all developed into distinct breeds in the early 1900s. Cairn Terriers came to the United States around 1913, and eventually gained much fame through Toto from The Wizard of Oz, who was a Cairn Terrier.

Temperament: Cairn Terriers are intelligent, lively, and fearless little dogs with great personalities. They're very friendly and can get along with just about anyone, but may be assertive with other dogs. Cairns are at their happiest when spending time with their families, so they're not the type of dog that can be left alone for long periods of time. Because of how in tune they are with their owners, Cairn Terriers are sensitive and don't like to be scolded. However, they're obedient and eager to please, so you shouldn't have to scold them too often! When given enough exercise, attention, and love, Cairn Terriers make great family companions.
