Biewer Terrier Breed
Standard
General Appearance is that of an elegant longhaired tri colored toy terrier with the hair parting down the middle and hanging straight and evenly on both sides of the dog, as though a comb had been used to part the hair from the nose to the end of the body. The back is level, with height at shoulders being equal to height of the rump. Although the outline of the dog gives the appearance of a square, the body length can be slightly longer than the over all height. The tail is carried high over the body in a teacup handle fashion and covered with a long flowing plume. The Biewer Terrier has a lighthearted whimsical, child like attitude. Although mischievous at times, they are obedient and make a loyal companion.
Head is slightly rounded with a
moderate stop.
The muzzle is approximately one-third the
length of
the head. Bite can be level or scissor bite. Nose is to be completely black. Eyes are medium sized and either
round or
almond shaped, with an intelligent expression looking straight ahead.
The rims are dark in color.
Ears are small, V shaped, upright, moderately wide set and covered with hair. They are set to the back of the skull and their base is level with the eyes. Tips should be shaved.
