Especially from a child's perspective, Scotties can make some pretty frightening noises.  This is one of those "the bark is worse than the bite" stories.

Lyrics
Woof! Woof! Woof! - the thunderous rage Could panic the likes of Satan. My childish heart could not conceive A dog so bent on hatin' I had to pass that shingled house On my way to school Grit my teeth and close my eyes Fresh meat versus ghoul! I hadn't ever seen him. His sounds, they were so frightening. I'd say a prayer and long for Mom, And run past, quick as lightening. Spiders, snakes, demented clowns Monsters 'neath the bed Fear plays in the child's mind, The unknown fosters dread. Fear plays in the child's mind, The unknown fosters dread. And so the fateful day arrived. The wretched cur broke free. All my nightmares realized. He would devour me! My heart, it raced! My pulse did pound! My legs, they flew! Yet losing ground! So close, that beast! So hot his breath! Goodbye world! A certain death! Spiders, snakes, demented clowns Monsters 'neath the bed Fear plays in the child's mind, The unknown fosters dread. Fear plays in the child's mind, The unknown fosters dread. I scrambled on the neighbor's car, Covered all in sweat. Slowly, carefully turned to look, A move I don't regret. Beneath me sat a bright-eyed pup, With eyebrows and a beard. He cocked his head and wagged his tail. 'Twas a Scottie that I'd feared. He growled again, abruptly barked, Uttered something like "Aroo" A lady called out from the porch, "He wants to play with you!" Spiders, snakes, demented clowns Monsters in the dark Silly me to worry so, About a Scottie's bark. Silly me to worry so, About a Scottie's bark.
