• Lil'Town Puppy Questionnaire Form

  • Is the Wheaten the Right Breed for You?

  • Are you looking for:

  • A bright, affectionate companion?  A medium sized sturdy dog?  An energetic, fun loving, active dog with an exuberant personality?

    Are you willing to:  

    Monitor and socialize an active puppy.  

    Train an independent Terrier-starting with puppy classes (a real must).

    Devote time to grooming daily (brush and comb).    

    Bathe, blow dry and trim and cut nails – or have your Wheaten professionally groomed Monthly.

    Provide a safe, fenced area and lots of exercise (a must).

    A Wheaten loves to jump; children are knocked down a lot.  Some Wheatens love to herd, so they do nip at running children’s feet.  A family must be able to accept these traits in their Wheaten as it is very hard to break these habits.  A Wheaten loves to greet people at the door by jumping and expressing how glad they are to see them.

    A fenced in yard or fenced in run is a must for a Wheaten.  If you are unable to provide this, an invisible fence is better than no fence at all.  However, a wheaten can not be left unattended with an invisible fence, as they will go thru the invisible fence if intrigued enough (chasing a squirrel, rabbit or other dog).

    A little about myself and my breeding program:  I have been involved with Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers for 22 years.  I am presently Vice President and Health Director of the Motor City Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Club, member of the Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Club of American and member of the Terrier Club Of Michigan.  

    The Wheatens I use in my breeding program, I show to their Championship, hips are OFA’d at two years of age, eyes are certified every other year and health testing is done annually.  I expect the Stud dogs I use to meet the same criteria.

    I recommend that Companion Wheatens are also health tested on an annual basis.  Complete Chem Screen and Urinalysis with Protine/Creatinine Ratio.  

    I have contracts for Companion Dogs and for Showing or Breeding Prospects that must be agreed to.

    If a litter has a show potential puppy, I look for a Show Home for that puppy.  If you are interested in a show potential puppy, we can discuss what that entails.

    The rest of the litter is placed as family pets. Once you complete this questionnaire and return it, I place it in my potential puppy family file.  When the dogs have been bred I then contact the families to see if they are still interested.  I again contact the families when the puppies are born and we start the commitment process. 

    Thank you for your interest.  Hope to hear from you soon.
