| | History of the Scottish Deerhound (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | For the people who are history buffs, and romantics, the Scottish Deerhound could possibly be viewed as the living link to the days when there were knights in armor, pageants, ladies in waiting, and the heart pounding thrill of the hunt without the use of firearms. |
 | | The Scottish Deerhound is one of the ancient breeds of dog associated with the Celtic tribes that wandered across Europe and Great Britain. |
 | | When one considers the terrain in which these deer were found, the fact that the Scottish Deerhound was able to pursue and persist in the chase, and still have the strength and capability to bring the prey down, speaks for the dog's courage, strength, and tenacity. |
