My wife and I were blessed with 7 Scottish Terrier puppies. The problem is that we’re moving in 3 weeks from Daytona Beach to Washington D.C. and we really don’t want to lug a bunch of puppies up to D.C.

They are purebred Scotties, and we have 2 girls and 2 boys left. All of them have shots and are healthy. They are NOT AKC registered. It’s a long story about the papers, and I won’t put it here. Email me for details. We’re asking $150 for each to cover thier shots and vet visits. Our main concern is that they go to a good home.

If you’re interested send me an e-mail and I’ll get in touch.

Cecil - Boy

Slug - Boy

Monkeylips - girl

Ouch! - girl, so named because she has a sick foot fethish and her little teeth are SHARP!

In honor of Baker, Filthy McNasty - girl

In honor of Rodd, Fiona - girl

In honor of Tarragon, Duff - girl

These names aren’t permanent or anything.

Since I have five dogs right now (including my first terrier, an airedale) I can’t help you out. Good luck finding good homes for them all.

Thanks St. Germain.

My wife has instructed me to indicate that we’ll deliver within 150 miles of either location, or anywhere along the I-95 route between Florida and Washington D.C.

Shameless Bump.

We’re down to two boys and a girl. They’re so cute! Your kids want one. You want one. All of your friends will think you’re cool if you have one.

You want to be cool, don’t you?

Too bad they’re not Cairn Terriers - that’s what my MIL wants, and she lives in Ocala. I’ve got two dogs too many myself.

Good luck finding homes for them!
