Default Wheaten Terrier

On 1 Dec 2005 17:29:48 GMT, Rocky , clicked their
heels and said:

At the other end of the spectrum, I see many soft SCWTs. I do
know one hinky one (a biter if she was allowed) and one *great*
representative of the breed. Soft is certainly not to standard,
so I'd also stay away from the breed unless I was willing to do
a ton of research into lines.


It's a bit risky, isn't it? Friends have one that is a nice enough
dog. He's a bit fearful and reserved, not my kind of dog, but not a
danger to people or other dogs. They had adopted one through rescue
before him who bit 2 of 3 family members though.

They appeal to a lot of people because they are non-shedding, medium
sized and cute. Unfortunately, most people don't seem prepared for
the dig-in-your-heels stubborness that comes along with them.
