Are Scottish Terriers easy to train?

Scottish Terriers possess moderate intelligence, ranking in the middle tier for trainability. While they score a respectable 3 out of 5 across obedience, problem-solving, memory, and social intelligence, their independent nature means they aren't considered "easy" to train compared to more biddable breeds. They require consistent, positive reinforcement and patience to overcome their inherent willfulness.
