Irish Terrier
Temperament
Bold, Dashing, Tenderhearted
[3]Background and classification
An Irish working terrier combining strength with mobility. Its red self-colour and lean supple outline distinguish it from other Irish terriers.
[1]Appearance and coat
Lean and strong rather than stocky, its construction supports speed and endurance. Leg and body outlines contrast with low long-bodied terriers.
[1]Coat and comparisons
JKC calls for self-colour, preferring red, red wheaten or yellow red, with occasional small chest white. This differs from the separate black and tan areas of other terriers.
