Welcome to the SCWTC of GB

The official web site of the Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier Club of Great Britain

The Soft-Coated Wheaten TerrierEstablished in 1955, The Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier Club of GB was registered by the Kennel Club in January 1957 and is the national Wheaten Breed club for Great Britain. Whilst the Club has expanded and adapted to meet the needs of today, the original purpose of the Club at registration remains unchanged. That is to maintain and protect the breed type according to the Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier Breed Standard approved by the Kennel Club; to promote sensible breeding of the Soft-Coated Wheaten with regard to type, soundness and temperament; safeguard the health of the breed by all possible means; to provide assistance to breeders and new owners; to provide information to prospective owners on breed characteristics; to keep members regularly informed of the points of interest concerning the breed and progress of the Club and to advance the interests of the breed by supporting shows and by educating judges. And last, but not least, to promote the interests of the Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier by any other means.

We hope you enjoy your visit to our site and pictures of our Wheatens and in the process, discover more about our lovely breed.

 

Are you thinking about getting a Wheaten puppy?

Are you wondering where to start looking?  Want to chat to an experienced owner and meet their Wheaten?  The SCWT Club of GB runs a unique puppy waiting list and we can also let you have the contact details of one of our Area Reps to visit and learn more about our lovely breed.  We stongly recommend such a visit. For more information, please read 'Owning a Wheaten' in the 'Resources' section and for puppy list and Area Rep information, send the 'Puppy List and Re-homing' form which you'll find in the 'User Menu'.

We strongly recommend that you get your puppy from a reputable breeder.  Please beware of breeders who advertise puppies or litters on the internet, in 'free ad' papers and puppy sales web-sites.  These puppies are usually not reared with the care that is necessary to produce a healthy and happy puppy.
