Maida (1813–1824) was a dog belonging to Sir Walter Scott. Sometimes called a Deerhound, Maida was a crossbreed from a Pyrenean Wolfdog and a Highland Deerhound, and was reported to be his favourite dog. The animal was named after the Battle of Maida, which took place in 1806, and was a gift from Alexander Macdonell of Glengarry, a friend of Scott, and whose brother led the 78th Highlanders in the battle, a victory for the British against the French in the Napoleonic Wars. Scott wrote to his son
