Hair on the ears is kept very short. The undercoat is short and soft. The neck and leg furnishings are softer than body coat. The neck is well furnished with hair, which forms a protective ruff blending into the apron. The forelegs are slightly feathered to the pasterns. A topknot covers only the top of the skull is a finer and softer texture than the rest of the coat.
CHARACTER
The Australian Terrier is spirited, alert, courageous, and self-confident, with the natural aggressiveness of a ratter and hedge hunter; as a companion, friendly and affectionate.
