[以下为丝毛梗(Silky Terrier)AKC标准英文原版]
Silky Terrier Breed Standard
General Appearance
The Silky Terrier is a true "toy terrier". He is moderately low set, slightly longer than tall, of refined bone structure, but of sufficient substance to suggest the ability to hunt and kill domestic rodents. His coat is silky in texture, parted from the stop to the tail and presents a well groomed but not sculptured appearance. His inquisitive nature and joy of life make him an ideal companion.
Size, Proportion, Substance
Size - Shoulder height from nine to ten inches. Deviation in either direction is undesirable. Proportion - The body is about one fifth longer than the dog's height at the withers. Substance - Lightly built with strong but rather fine bone.
Head
The head is strong, wedge-shaped, and moderately long. Expression piercingly keen, eyes small, dark, almond shaped with dark rims. Light eyes are a serious fault. Ears are small, V-shaped, set high and carried erect without any tendency to flare obliquely off the skull. Skull flat, and not too wide between the ears. The skull is slightly longer than the muzzle. Stop shallow. The nose is black. Teeth strong and well aligned, scissors bite. An undershot or overshot bite is a serious fault.
Neck, Topline and Body
The neck fits gracefully into sloping shoulders. It is medium long, fine, and to some degree crested. The topline is level. A topline showing a roach or dip is a serious fault. Chest medium wide and deep enough to extend down to the elbows. The body is moderately low set and about one fifth longer than the dog's height at the withers. The body is measured from the point of the shoulder (or forechest) to the rearmost projection of the upper thigh (or point of the buttocks). A body which is too short is a fault, as is a body which is too long. The tail is docked, set high and carried at twelve to two o'clock position.
Forequarters
Well laid back shoulders, together with proper angulation at the upper arm, set the forelegs nicely under the body. Forelegs are strong, straight and rather fine-boned. Feet small, catlike, round, compact. Pads are thick and springy while nails are strong and dark colored. White or flesh-colored nails are a fault. The feet point straight ahead, with no turning in or out. Dewclaws, if any, are removed.
Hindquarters
Thighs well muscled and strong, but not so developed as to appear heavy. Well angulated stifles with low hocks which are parallel when viewed from behind. Feet as in front.
Coat
Straight, single, glossy, silky in texture. On matured specimens the coat falls below and follows the body outline. It should not approach floor length. On the top of the head, the hair is so profuse as to form a topknot, but long hair on the face and ears is objectionable. The hair is parted on the head and down over the back to the root of the tail. The tail is well coated but devoid of plume. Legs should have short hair from the pastern and hock joints to the feet. The feet should not be obscured by the leg furnishings.
Color
Blue and tan. The blue may be silver blue, pigeon blue or slate blue, the tan deep and rich. The blue extends from the base of the skull to the tip of the tail, down the forelegs to the elbows, and half way down the outside of the thighs. On the tail the blue should be very dark. Tan appears on muzzle and cheeks, around the base of the ears, on the legs and feet and around the vent. The topknot should be silver or fawn which is lighter than the tan points.
Gait
Should be free, light-footed, lively and straightforward. Hindquarters should have strong propelling power. Toeing in or out is to be faulted.
Temperament
The keenly alert air of the terrier is characteristic, with shyness or excessive nervousness to be faulted. The manner is quick, friendly, responsive.

澳洲丝毛梗-习性特点
梗（Terrier)是用于狩猎穴熊，野兔，水獭等小动物的一类小猎犬。他们多数都具有聪明活泼，行动敏捷，勇敢顽强，勤劳忠实的性格。除少数几种梗外，绝大部分产于英国，因此，英国可谓梗王国。
梗的名称起源于拉丁文的“Terra”，意思是“掘土”，该类犬善于挖掘地穴，猎取栖息在土中或穴中的獾，狐狸，野兔，水獭等小动物。他们较小的体形，正配合拉这种需要[1]。
澳洲丝毛梗
梗可以分长肢短体更和短肢长体更其中丹第丁蒙梗，苏更蓝梗，西部高地白梗是短肢长体的代表。万能梗，猎狐梗，凯利蓝梗，牛头梗和贝林顿梗是长肢短体的代表。
不同的梗有不同的作用，如湖畔梗和凯利兰梗是在水旁湖畔旁工作，他们表现出得心应手。曼切斯特梗是扑鼠能手，其高超的技艺有时让猫也自叹不如。石堆梗擅长于在石洞中扑抓小动物，并由此而得名。牛头梗及斯塔福郡牛头梗在斗牛场上，面对凶猛的公牛毫不畏惧，顽强拚杀，表现出大无畏的气概，丹第丁蒙梗一向以勇敢勤劳文明于世。猎狐梗则有一流的猎狐本领。
一些梗犬，具有漂亮的外表，西部高地白梗，斯开岛梗等是优秀的玩赏犬，但是梗犬活泼好动的本性至今仍然存在，因此在以梗犬作为玩赏犬时，应充分注意这点熟悉梗类犬的人对这类犬的评价总是一致的。这些活泼、精力旺盛的梗类犬，体形从小到大都有，体形较小的有罗福梗、凯安梗及西部高地白梗，体形高大的有万能梗等。梗类犬的典型特点是对其他动物很没有耐性，包括对其他狗。它们的祖先是被培养来捕猎害兽。它们被继续设计成始终表现为具有勇敢和活泼的特性。绝大多数梗类犬拥有特别的刚毛，需要按一定的次序剥毛，以维持其特别的外貌。一般来说，它们是迷人的宠物，但需要主人有坚定的意志以适应它们顽劣的性格。
