Hello! I am a student living in an apartment near campus at University. I am looking to get my first dog soon and I am trying to figure out which dog is right for me. I am currently looking to get a Soft- Coated Wheaten Terrier because I prefer a medium sized dog that is also hypoallergenic. I...

We have had an 11-week-old Wheaten Terrier puppy for 3 weeks. We've read several dog training books as well as many posts on this forum. But we aren't sure whether our progress is moving along at the right speed. We both work and so the dog is behind a dog gate in the kitchen during the...

Hi all, after 13.5 years I had to put my Jack Russell down. I didn't think I would ever get another dog. I have liked Wheatens for so long and after browsing the internet for days I decided to get another puppy. Any advice you have on Wheatens is greatly appreciated. I am familiar with terriers...

Hello, This is my first post outside of the new members access area. My wife and I just adopted Sal from a breeder. Sal is a soft coated wheaten terrier, is about 40 lbs and is a few months over 2 years old. He was up for adoption because he would not breed with the other females the breeder...

I own a 3 year old Wheaten Terrier named Earl. I have lived alone for all of Earls life but now I have 2 roommates. For the past 3 years, Earl has not been very well potty trained and things seem to be getting worse. I work from about 7-430 every day and Earl has an accident at least 2 days a...

I purchased a Wheaten Terrier puppy this past September that I purchased from a breeder. I thought I did my homework by getting updated pictures of the dog as well as information on his parents (AKC IDs and pictures). I even spoke to the breeder several times on the phone. Long story short when...

Hello: I would love some advice from anyone with experience adopting rescues. My husband and I just adopted a 7 month old male Wheaten Terrier, Griffin, from a local rescue a little over a week and a half ago. His previous family was loving, but did not have the time to train him since they...

My husband and I will be picking up our new soft coated wheaten terrier puppy after he turns 8 weeks, which will be in about a month. We are in the process of making sure we are ready for him! Our main concern is our lack of a yard. We live in a 4th floor condo in the city. How should we...

Nine year old wheaten terrier (female) will no longer come out of her cage when the door is opened in the evenings. She will huddle in the back of the cage and not try to come out. I coax, whistle, offer treats and she will not move. After a few minutes, I try and shut the door and she attacks...

My wheaten terrier pup just turned 1 year old and still has a ton of puppy energy. Like most pups he loves to run around. On our walks towards the end we sprint back to the house. He loves to do this but the only thing is that he grabs the leash in his mouth and runs with it. When we stop at the...
