The Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier hails from Ireland where, along with the Kerry Blue and Irish Terriers, he worked as a farm dog. These dogs had multiple jobs, including protecting the farmer and his property, keeping vermin under control, and herding livestock. The Wheaten did not make his mark off the farm until the early 1930s, when a Kerry Blue enthusiast suggested to a friend that he start a breed club for Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers. The national Irish Kennel Club recognized the breed in 1937.
