All Dog Breeds >>Appearance of Skye Terrier

The Skye is double coated, with a short, soft undercoat and a hard, straight topcoat. The ideal coat length is 5 1/2 inches (14 cm), with no extra credit for a longer coat. The shorter hair of the head veils the forehead and eyes, forming a moderate beard. The ears should be well feathered and, in prick-eared examples, the hair should fall like a fringe, accenting the form, and blending with the side locks
