Wheatens at Westminster

Here’s link to the wheaten video from the 134th Westminster Kennel Club Show. The video shows the best breed — no, not the Best OF Breed but the gorgeous, phenomenal, ultra soft and fluffy, adorable SOFT-COATED WHEATEN TERRIER!!!!! (Hey — if you had a wheaten, you’d agree they’re TOTALLY endearing and well worth the extra time needed for training and hair care!)

Bet the judges were tempted to award every gorgeous wheaten! And how they can restrain themselves from getting closer for a wheaten smooch and hug, I’ll never know!

Today, when I was giving my wheatens their weekly bath and blow dry, I wondered how many hours it must take to get those Westminster wheatens ready for the ring. And yes, I know I keep their hair a bit too long, but it’s SO luxurious and the patients they visit just love it! (Used to keep poor Wheatie’s ear hair SO long, I referred to him as my Fabio wheaten!)
