Extraído de fuentes y no escrito como opinión — investigación de salud citada, el estándar del propio registro, y estudios de longevidad revisados por pares. Estándar de la raza, FCI. Los animales de un criador pueden diferir de todo esto, y una columna vacía significa que no tenemos nada de ese lado, no que no haya nada que decir.

Characteristics

Estándar de la FCI · Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier

Pelo y color

Tal como lo establece el estándar de la FCI. Cada línea de abajo está en las palabras del propio estándar.

Coat

A single coated dog.

Texture soft and silky to feel and not harsh.

Young dogs excluded from this.

Trimming permitted.

Trimmed dogs: Coat cut close at neck, chest and skull, and left especially long over eyes and under jaw.

Whiskers encouraged.

Profuse feathering on legs.

Body coat trimmed to follow the outline of the dog but not sculpted.

Tail trimmed close and neatly tapered.

Untrimmed dogs: The coat at its longest not to exceed five inches (12,7 cm).

Soft, wavy or loosely curled with the sheen of silk.

Under no circumstances should the coat be "fluffed out" like a Poodle or an Old English Sheepdog.

Dogs shown in this condition should be heavily penalised as they give a wrong impression of type and breed.

Special attention is drawn to puppy coat development.

Pups are seldom born with the correct coat of maturity, care must be taken when assessing this point.

They go through several changes of colour and texture before developing the mature adult coat.

This usually occurs between 18 months and 2½ years.

They come reddish, greyish and sometimes clear wheaten.

The masks are generally black.

Sometimes there is a black streak down the centre back or black tips to the body coat.

These dark markings clear away with growth

Notes

  • Pups: Are seldom born with the correct colour or texture coat.

Color

  • Preferred
  • Permissible
  • Undesirable
  • Disqualifying

«Preferred», «permissible», «undesirable» y «disqualifying» — preferido, admisible, indeseable y descalificante — son las palabras de la propia FCI sobre la raza, y quedan en inglés porque así constan en el estándar. Describen lo que el estándar pide — no son una valoración de ningún perro concreto, ni nuestra.

  • A good clear wheaten of shades from light wheaten to a golden reddish hue

Resumido de FCI standard n°40 — cada etiqueta está en las palabras del propio estándar, con el veredicto pasado a la etiqueta de al lado. Lee la cláusula completa en la fuente.

Lo que el estándar penaliza

Aquello por lo que un juez resta puntos a la raza Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, y lo que la deja fuera del ring, en las palabras del propio registro. Esto describe el estándar de la raza — no es una lista de comprobación para el animal que tienes delante, y un animal de compañía con un defecto descalificante es un perro que no puede ir a exposición, no un perro enfermo.

Defectos descalificantes

Dejan al animal fuera del ring por completo.

  • Yellow eyes.
  • Dull, thick, woolly or cottony textured hair.
  • White coat. Brown coat. Dogs carrying any of the above eliminating faults should never be bred from

Health guide

What to ask for in a Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier

No breed-specific health panel has been written up for the Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier on this platform yet.

Puppies

No puppies listed right now

No Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier breeder has a record on this platform yet, so there is nothing to list. That is a gap in our coverage, not a fact about the breed.
