Our Team | Scotties Rock Foundation

Penny Standley

President

Winchester, Tennessee, USA

Penny lives in middle Tennessee, after spending over 20 years in Atlanta and growing up in Alaska. She is married, has two grown children, and one beloved Scottie named Mac. Her first Scottie, Duffy, sparked her love for the breed and inspired her to welcome Mac into the family.

As one of the original founders of Scotties Rock Foundation, Penny oversees all fundraising efforts and manages Rainbow Bridge tributes.

“I am honored to be able to make a difference in the Scottie community—providing support during difficult times, giving strength for today, and hope for many tomorrows for Scotties and their families by being a part of Scotties Rock and Scotties Rock Foundation.”

Allyson Lynn

Vice President

Massachusetts, USA

Allyson lives in Western Massachusetts and is owned by her two dogs: Mayzie Nessie Dhu, a Scottish Terrier, and Inky, a sweet mixed terrier. Her first Scottie, Gryffin, made her fall in love with the breed. Gryffin was feisty, independent, loyal, fearless and had a sly sense of humor. Her newest Scottie Mayzie is all that, plus a hefty dose of joyful abandon.

Both Scotties influenced Allyson’s desire to work with dogs. Along with Mayzie, she now assists a local dog trainer part-time, helping owners teach their dogs social skills needed for good canine citizenship.

She joined the SRF Board out of her deep love for the breed and desire to support Scottie owners in times of need.

Kay relocated from Western Pennsylvania to Stillwater, Oklahoma in 2022. Her background includes work in wholesale/retail, manufacturing, and HUD-assisted property management for seniors. She is currently employed as an accounting assistant.

Bev Calvert

Member at Large

Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada

Bev has been lucky enough to be owned by dogs since she was 8 years old. Most of her dogs have been rescues—adopted from shelters, found on the streets, or, in the case of her Greyhound boys, retired racers who came through a rescue group. While she has had a few purebred dogs, most have been “pedigree-challenged”—but no matter their genetics, they were all dearly loved, cherished companions and true members of her family.

Bev has been involved in all-breed rescue, as well as Irish Wolfhound rescue, for over 24 years.

Since 2020, she has been without a canine companion. Her beloved Daisy and Jemma are still deeply missed. Scotties have always held a special place in her heart, thanks to a family friend who had a Scottie when she was growing up.

Bev previously served on the SRF Board from January 2017 to January 2019. She stepped away after being diagnosed with double breast cancer and during a major move from Ontario to British Columbia, Canada. During that time, she also took a break from SRF involvement.

Since joining the SRF group in August 2016, Bev has continued to support the Foundation’s auction efforts—both while serving on the Board and behind the scenes.

Sally Bacon

Member at Large

Archdale, North Carolina, USA

A proud parent of four adult children—three sons and one daughter—I’ve also had the joy and challenge of raising my oldest grandson, who has autism and ADHD. He recently took a big step and moved into a group home at age 19, and we’re incredibly proud of him.

My passions include sewing and quilting, and I also enjoy ceramics, baking, cooking, and trying out new recipes. When I get the chance, I love to curl up with a good book.
Our home is filled with furry (and fluffy!) companions:

Lucy, a sweet 10-year-old Cavapoo.
Bonnie, our feisty 7-year-old Scottish Terrier.

Life is busy, full, and full of love—both human and animal. I’m grateful to be part of the Scotties Rock Foundation and look forward to supporting this wonderful community however I can.

Laura Lindauer

Member at Large

Ohio, USA &
Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON, Canada

Laura splits her time between Northeast Ohio and Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. She and her husband, Craig currently have three Scotties in their lives: Skye (wheatie), Jock (black) and Archie (brindle). At one point Laura convinced her husband that they needed to have one of each color to complete the set.

Laura spent several years in the classroom as a French teacher and continues to perform as a professional singer in the NE Ohio area, which she has done for more than 30 years. After she left the classroom, she spent several years in nonprofit management and development. She currently spends most of her time as a volunteer, writing grants for a local farm animal sanctuary, working with the elderly at an area senior living facility, and assisting with therapeutic riding programming.

Laura is thrilled to be a part of the SRF Board to support the mission of assisting animals and people in need, both of which are deeply rooted in her desire to serve.

Jane L. Miller

Member at Large

Beech Mountain, NC, USA

Jane L. Miller is a resident of Beech Mountain, NC. She currently divides her time between Beech Mountain and Lenoir, North Carolina, to be closer to her work and to live next door to her older sister.

Jane has six wonderful dog children, three of whom are Scotties. Her soul Scottie, Charcoal, passed away recently at age 17. She loves her family more than words can say.

Jane is a manufacturing engineer working for a commercial HVAC and plumbing company, estimating and bidding on projects for contracts. Her passion (other than Scotties) is art. She is a commissioned artist who primarily paints portraits of people and pets, though she often paints still lifes and landscapes as well. Once a full-time pursuit, her art has become more part-time than full-time.

Jane has been a member of the National Ski Patrol for 33 years, offering first aid assistance to injured guests during both winter and summer activities at Beech Mountain Ski Resort.

Her love of Scotties began approximately 35–40 years ago when she adopted and rescued a badly neglected and abused puppy who was 6–8 months old. The puppy was a project, for sure, but love and gentle patience restored her faith in most of humanity. She was the picture of Scottitude, especially after her challenging beginnings. She was Jane’s first Scottie, and Jane has never been without one since. She hopes she never will be.

Judy Kucharski

Member at Large

Nova Scotia, Canada

Judy lives in Nova Scotia Canada with her husband Don and 3 Scotties (Bruce, Maisie and Mr Bean). Judy’s love for all animals began in her childhood which she shared with dogs, cats, rabbits and snakes. She first fell in love with terriers at 18 when a friend adopted a small scruffy terrier mix. But it wasn’t until she was in her 30’s that she was adopted by her own terrier mix, Sierra, from Macon Georgia. She’s been previously owned by five Scotties: Guinness, Black Angus, Doughall, Molly and Angus The Fair. After Angus went to the Rainbow Bridge, she heard about 2 Scottie puppies that needed to be rehomed. Off she went and rescued the two boys and somehow managed to get their sister Maisie as well. THREE Scottie puppies all at once!!!

Judy believes that all Scotties deserve the best and that’s why helping Scotties however she can is in her blood. She’s volunteered, done charity work and fostering rescues; she hopes to bring that “can do” attitude to her work with Scotties Rock Foundation.
