Yeah, the pound guy referred to this dog as a "Skye Terrier"--what a surprise for any adoptive family to find out that their "Skye" was really a Cairn Terrier. I can't believe anyone would make that mistake, especially after the "makeover"--that dog is all Cairn! You saw how he went for the other dogs--I'd take him in a minute--nice, really nice looking dog.

Yes, I was really surprised that they misidentified that little Cairn as a Skye terrier. He is a real cutie and I would bet he is already adopted!

Yep, that was no Skye Terrier! I thought it was cool that the bobsled team member adopted the dog he walked out right on the spot.

Very cute! Perhaps the pound guy was having a flashback. The first Cairns entered as a distinct breed at a dog show were entered as Short-haired Skye Terriers. I didn't think the fellow was that old, however. :P

Wow. A Skye, eh? I don't know how you could think George is a Skye...especially after his makeover. He is such a cute little guy, too.

I'm impressed they didn't shave George. I think the stripped, at least they knew how to groom a terrier. :thumbsup:

I'll let you know if they respond back to me, but i figured that someone might as well say something to the shelter that poor little george is a Cairn.

Very cute Cairn - and I can tell difference now after watching the Best of Terriers at Crufts - the Skye Terrier was 4th. But very nice dog but would not like to groom him - looked like a silky rug!!
