Do wheaten terriers change colors?

The Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier has a single, silky coat that starts dark when she is a puppy and lightens to a wheaten color as she grows into adulthood. The coat is light shedding, but requires regular grooming.

Do all soft-coated wheaten terriers turn white?

The Wheaten's signature pale beige coat does not come in until he reaches adulthood. Wheaten puppies are born different colors, including white or creme (and beyond!), and puppies under a year may carry deeper coloring and occasional black tipping.
