Anyone who knows me, knows that I am totally IN LOVE with my Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers.  So, what Is a SCWT like?  First off they don't shed and are a wonderful choice for people with allergies!  They have fabulous soft coats of hair, not fur, like a big stuffed animal.  Wheatens have lots of energy and are incredibly smart.  They are sweet and playful and stay puppy-like even in their senior years.  Mine follow me wherever I go!  Most of all, they are truly members of my family.

I belong to a Wheaten Rescue that currently has many dogs available for adoption, so I am trying to spread the word to help find homes for these wonderful fur babies.  Although most of them are located in Kansas City, Missouri, there is a transport available for puppy-mill survivors. The survivors are dogs who were kept in crates for most of their lives and relentlessly bred in order to sell the puppies to pet stores.  Many have never known the warmth and love of humans! There are also dogs located in foster homes around the country.  These great dogs need people to call family and a "furever" home.  For most of them you only need to have a fenced-in yard and an open heart.  You would be giving them something they very much deserve. 

Could you be looking to add a dog to your family?  If so, I hope you will visit the Wheaten Terrier rescue site at www.wheatenterrierrescue.org and see if one of these sweet faces speaks to your heart.  If you are not looking for a dog at this time, please forward this information to anyone who might be.  It is really easy to submit an application and a coordinator with the rescue will call you in a timely manner.

B'shalom, Jan
