A Glen of Imaal Terrier stands 12 1/2 to 14 in (32 to 36 cm) at the shoulder.
Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 12.5-14 inches. The listing describes an adult dog, not a growth chart for puppies.
Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (14 in), the Glen of Imaal Terrier is the joint 53rd smallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the smallest dog breeds ranked.
Drawn at the same 12.5 in: Swedish Vallhund, Basset Fauve de Bretagne and Danish-Swedish Farmdog. Same drawing, different listings: a Glen of Imaal Terrier’s, a Basset Fauve de Bretagne’s and a Danish-Swedish Farmdog’s figures are each the lower end of its range, a Swedish Vallhund’s the lower end of its male range.
