Isn’t this a cute picture of moi? A little itty bitty baby. Sleeping – my best Olympic sport – on a chair. Of all places. I swannee, I could sleep anywhere.
But, I awoke from my slumber early today to tell you something important. All you Scotties, listen up!
The folks over at Rocky Creek Scottie Adventures posted an interesting item. Go over there now and check it out.
There’s a survey at projectdog.org to help doctors learn things about us Scotties. The information will help canine genetic research. Heck, it may even help put an end to Scottie Cramp and stuff like that.
My peep took the survey for me yesterday and We’re going to give a DNA sample. To help other Scotties in the future. (Seems I qualified for the study because of my noise phobia and “other interesting behavior”. Wha????)
Check it out. It takes a village to raise healthy companion animals. We can all help each other. There are studies for other breeds as well.
What You Learned Today:
- I love sharing things. Thanks, Rocky Creek Scotties, for sharing this with your friends, like moi.
- There’s a survey about Scotties here. YOU MUST PARTICIPATE NOW – ’cause the survey is only active for a week. And I think half of that time is already gone…
- So hop on over there and be a part of Scottie research.
- ArroOOO Roooooo!
We did the same yesterday, and we are going to do the DNA sample, cause Dad says we must be important, Heeheehee. Nothing better then helping out!!!

Woop Woop!
Done! How did they know some of those things about me already? How did they know that I like to sleep with my head on a pillow?? Preferably my human’s pillow. If they are trying to use it, that’s fine with me. I can just lay right on top of their head, neck….whatever. It’s soooo comfy!
We will do the DNA sample too, becuase I bet I will get a biscut after I stand still while they take my sample, don’tcha think???
This is Toby barking at you!
Toby, my friend, I’d pick my peeps’ pillow any time!
Cute white bely. White marks the spot for bellyrubs…
Yesssss!
OK, I answered the questions, sent the photo and am getting a kit. I’m afraid they’ll find out some dark secret hidden in my past that I don’t even know about such as one of my ancestors was a squirrel. Would they publicize something like that? My reputation would be ruined and I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.
LOL! Your secrets are safe with them. I think. I trust. I hope. But, if you should find that you’re part squirrel, or worse, a CHIPPER, I’ll still be your friend. Promise.
Even a CHIPPIE? You’re a true friend.
Yes, I am. Thank you very much. ROOOOOOOO!
I got into the study. Don’t know if I can help, but I know that my father was used way to much in breeding from the AKC. So my genetic pool has to be out there. I am doing the DNA sample also.
Thanks for bringing us this info. Stuart. You and Rocky Creek rock.
Sweet William The Scot
And thank YOU for participating!
Of course you’ll be helping. It’s about finding out the truth. In your case, your genetic pool is Olympic sized. I have no idea if mine even contains water. I have no clue about my parents but then again, so do most ten year olds.
I love all you Scotties! You know what? I think Scotties Peeps are the best! You all make me smile.
Alyssa, Mr. Fox & Scruffy
Here’s smiling at YOU!
Had Sis do the Survey because I can not type well, I was also asked for my DNA..
Thought they took it all when they neutered me last Febrooooary.
No my friend. We’ve still got the REALLY important stuff. Well, you know what I mean.
thanks for sharing stu! we did this yesterday too and are just waiting for our kit!
edgar
Okeydokey! Thanks my friend Edgar.
We’re in there with you, Stuart. Our mom got online and gave those nice people all the skinny and the poop (well, in a manner of speaking, anyway). Arrooo-oooo-ooo from Jake and Albert
Ah yes. The skinny and the poop. I tend to do that alot….
Looks like you have to be from America to participate. Would have loved to have helped!
It’s the thought that counts my furiend!
I would have liked to help Stuart, but linky no worky, at least not to the survey.
That’s a pretty comfy looking chair there, watch out that I don’t come over and claim it…
Arrooos
Piper MacT
It means a lot that you’d even try. THANK YOU ROOOOOOO…..
Oh…and you can claim this chair any time. That means you’ll have to come over and visit. Love to have you…
We read about it. Sounds like a great survey, but again, we’re out-of-country.
Good for you for helping.
XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
You know, I shoulda thought of that. poo. roo. stu.
Thanks for the heads up! We just went over and participated for both Jacque and Pippen!
Two surveys! Yess….. Thanks y’all!
Stu
Aw man…how I wish I was a scottie!!!!! I want to be an honorary one!!! AND look at that puppy belly! I never did lose mine:)
You ARE an honorary Scottie lil’ Hoke. I’ll have to do something about that…
Oh, and that puppy belly? Mine just got bigger, that’s all.
Aroooo! Stuart
Stuart–I think the survey is over. Mom went to get my file(she can never remember the big words from the dogtors reports from when I was sick)) then did the link and she can’t find the survey, then again, she can’t remember big words…
Noodledog
Mom went over to Kylas’ and that link worked! yipee! Of course, she couldn’t find a picure to send, but we will be getting the DNA kit
Noodledog
Hey….you’re the second person who had trouble with my link. So sorry about that! Glad you got through Noodle!
We both qualified! Aroooooooo
