In the early days of this breed, before AKC recognition, showing was our primary focus and the “information highway” was far in the future. Our breeding practices were that of the blind leading the blind, a roll of the dice, or a leap of faith. Today, there are many avenues available, and it is our intention here to focus on all aspects of responsible breeding practices. Stay with us as we delve into the specifications and obligations inherent in producing handsome, healthy sound Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers.

Meanwhile, please remember that the SCWT Illustrated Standard is the ultimate tool for understanding the breed. Beautiful illustrations and clear explanations demonstrate the ideal Wheaten as defined in the AKC Breed Standard. The essence of type is discussed along with size, proportion, substance, and all other aspects of the breed standard. You can order your copy in the Shop.
