The Cairn Terrier is one of today's most popular breeds of small dogs. Centuries ago, the ancestors of Cairn Terriers were bred in the Scottish Highlands to control pests in the rock piles ("cairns") near their homes. Today they are fun-loving, affectionate pets. They are full of energy and love to play. Alert, intelligent, and hardy, these dogs make perfect companions. They make themselves at home in apartments, houses, and on farms. These wonderful dogs are good with children, rarely shed, and learn new tricks quickly. Piney Bay Cairns is a hobby kennel dedicated to raising these wonderful animals. Let us help you find your new best friend!
