Living With an Aging Scottish Terrier
by Linda Orsborn

Linda's article addresses some of the risk factors that need to be addressed as our Scottie grows and ages.  While there are significant areas that need to be anticipated, there are also things that we can do to help reduce the risks.  Medical screening, dental care, weight control and herbal medications are just some of the areas discussed.

Mentoring
by Jacki Forkel

This is a brief history of the man for whom our most prestigious annual award is named. The award has been offered each year since it was first won by Ch. Albourne Beetle in 1921. The article concludes with a statement that the award was most likely named after Lloyd because of his record as STCA President which helped to put the club on a firm foundation.
