The following pages
describe my background and involvement with the Irish Softcoated Wheaten
Terrier, the Irish Standard, Mrs. Maureen Holmes' concern for the future of the
Breed and an explanation by her on the Irish Standard as recognised by the
F.C.I.
Please note that this
homepage will be updated regularly, pictures are included to illustrate the
correct appearance and type of the Irish Softcoated Wheaten Terrier.
In a particular country the
appearance of Wheatens may differ greatly, due to (incorrect) selective
breeding and guidance by personal taste rather then by the Standard combined
with the lack of adherence to the Standard by Judges at shows.

Standards in force outside
