Why a Wheaten?Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers are a wonderful family pet when socialized and obedience trained as a puppy. They adapt well to most living situations as long as they are with their family. They are medium sized, non-shedding, fun loving and spirited!
Wheatens enjoy doing anything including obedience, agility, therapy work, camping, canoeing or just laying around the house keeping an eye on things. Wheatens want to become an integral part of your family :) Check out this great buyer's guide from the club of America https://scwtca.org/buyersguide/ |
About Us |
As a dedicated, reputable breeder, we spend vast amounts of time with our dogs, puppies and families. We go beyond the recommended health tests of our breeding stock and provide a 2 year health guarantee for our puppies. We stand behind the quality of our dogs.
We are members in good standing with the Canadian Kennel Club and the Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Association of Canada; and as such, we adhere to the guidelines, practices and ethics. |
Here at Witthaven Wheatens, we don't have a kennel, we own a few CKC registered females from champion lines that live as pampered pets most of the time. Once they have passed all the health tests and are considered to be of excellent conformation and temperament, they are used in the breeding program. The males we choose are always CKC registered, from champion lines, are regularly health tested, and complement our female and her characteristics.
We constantly strive to produce beautiful and healthy puppies. They are born and raised in our home and we ensure each puppy is stimulated every day (a bio sensory program) in just the right amounts and ways to help them mature into a well balanced adult dog. We have had great success in using a puppy aptitude test to help choose the right puppy for each family. We also use "puppy culture" practices to help our puppies get a good start on life! We provide a comprehensive puppy package to our buyers with lots of advice and support. We like to keep in touch and expect that if at any time during the life of your dog you need to find a new home for it, that you will call us first as we often have people asking us for older dogs. We thoroughly health test all of our breeding potential dogs and do not breed dogs that do not pass the tests! It's that simple for us as a reputable breeder. We also provide a health guarantee and stand behind the health of our dogs. We are passionate about providing quality non-shedding Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers to approved buyers. We spend sooooo much time on our hands and knees playing with the puppies and preparing them for their future. The puppies are part of our home environment from day one! We also spend time getting to know you - the buyer. Our babies deserve a good home! Reputable registered breeders know where their dogs come from and can prove it. The Canadian Kennel Club is the only registering body in Canada for purebred dogs under the Animal Pedigree Act. Anything else is useless. It is a federal offense to sell a purebred dog without CKC registration papers in Canada. Predictability, health, heritage and dedicated to the future welfare of Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers, these are all things we are proud of as a reputable breeder!
