SOFT COATED WHEATEN JUDGE SOUTHERN COUNTIES 15

Soft-coated Wheaten Terriers

I was pleased to see that most of the Wheatens were of correct breed type & had correct coats. There is always some variation in size, type & coat everywhere in the breed, but I think in the last few years all this has become more uniform. The correct Irish coat takes time to develop. Most of the dogs seen today were nicely trimmed, too, just tidied, not overdone. After the judging I was told that the CC winners were the very same ones, brother & sister, as last time when I judged the breed over here. Amazing, I honestly had no idea about this, but obviously I haven’t changed my opinion about the breed. The RDCC was a son of the CC winner, so it really was a family affair.
