From Maureen Baziuk   (July 2016)
  On a recent walk at Assiniboine Park we met a couple of other Wheatens. In conversation with the owner we learned that these 2 Wheaties, Morgan & Stella, are littermates of Muggins, Magnum and Sheena. Tha's Morgan on the left and Stella on the right.

  While out for a walk on the TransCanada Trail near the the West Perimeter, Matias met up with Tara's new Wheaten, Callie.

A full of energy female who never stops, never.

  No, No, No. You have that wrong.

  I'm his bodyguard!!

  What?

  You mean Halloween is still two weeks away???

  (a watchful Wheaten)

  A fine example of a senior wheaten

Murphy at 16yrs - lookin' good.

  Hmm, she said wait here
like a good wheaten
and I'll get a treat.
Maybe I'll whine for two
as it's getting cold on the tush!

  I think I need a haircut, really!

But be careful,

I have to maintain this incredible cuteness!

  Break Time! Time for a Wet Wheaten Smooch!


She said we could go for a walk
when she finished shopping.



When oh when is she coming home???



She's not home yet???

  How long do we have to wait for...

  TREATS !!!

  Hmm, seems a bit wavy to me, let's wait awhile...

  Ah, the wind's died a bit and now it's much better.

Always listen to your Wheaten!

  So, let's hear the choices again; a walk or a rest?
Do we really have to get up...

  If someone suggests another walk around the Assiniboine Forest I'm just going to ignore them - I've had enough...



Ever notice how a Wheaten is able to "con" everyone else into doing things for them. You can almost hear Tara the Wheaten saying first; "Ah this is the life, just maxin' and relaxin'" and then; "Careful of the rocks Helen, you know I don't like bumps!"



  So, after a chasing ducks what is a wheaten to do? Click on the picture to find out!

  Nothing, I mean NOTHING smells better than sheets dried outside at the cottage!

  Almost looks like someone whittled some wheatens out of a big tree, almost...

  This Wheaten has figured out how to enjoy winter - stick your nose and face right in the snow!!

  It's a big scary world out there, time to rest by Mom, she can keep me safe.

  A boy and a dog playing find the stick in the middle of a Manitoba Winter. Does it get any better?

  Amazing what the power of a promised "treat" can accomplish !

  Murphy is 14+ years old. Some people would say that is 98 in human years. If so, isn't he in fantastic shape!

  Maybe the snowman is worried that the wheaten may think hs's a fire hydrant...

  Now this is an impressive sight, 5 wheatens sitting, together no less, for a photo. I have been assured it is not a PhotoShop trick but the real thing. I'll bet the owners are somewhere close and have promised all sorts of treats!

  Wheaten maxin and relaxin...

  I AM NOT TOUCHING OR SMELLING THAT !!!

  Click on the thumbnail to see why this wheaten is so sad...

  Great shot of a Wheaten Greet'in...

  My companion says he's geocaching, I'd rather wait on the path for an unsuspecting rabbit...

  Wheatens sporting the latest fashions at Beaudry Park

  Wheaten beachcombers at Blue Lake Ontario - simply a great campground!

  Yes I was out for walk in the dry grass, why do you ask...

  Going for the sympathy vote...
Minor tail surgery and a couple of weeks of the 'cone' and life can return to normal.

  The cone doesn't change the daily walk in the snow, now he has a snow plow!

  Can you bring me my dish, I'm just a little stiff this morning...

  Murphy at 13, fine looking Wheaten!

  But it's only snow !!!

  So true...

  Sometimes the rinse cycle at our house,
even if it's Royal Dolton china...

  Now what do you think this Wheaten was looking at?
  Left mouse click and you will see a...

  glacier, what else were you expecting...

  Toothpcik anyone ??

  Maggie checking out Helca Island MB

  Wheatens love a wet face, don’t they !!

  A fine picture of the sun setting on Helca Island, thanks Tim

  Aren’t I just too cute ..!!

  They went fishing without me...!!!

  Just how long to I have to wait for this little bit of treat...???

  Hah - this is nothing,
  you should see the other dog...

  Are you SURE summer is coming???

  Brother and sister celebrating their 10th birthday!
If you think that's cute, click on their picture!

  Wayne showing his magic trick
    or
how to untangle two wheatens!

  I finally got them to sit, quick - get their picture!

Who says Wheatens don't have herding instincts!

  Magic Dad, has the attention of 2 Wheatens and a little boy!

  Want to trade??

     Spring is always an interesting time with a Wheaten. Spring 2009 in Winnipeg is even more of a challenge as it was late in coming and we had more than the usual amount of snow and water. Sunday, April 12 was the first more or less decent day and we had the grandkids out for a walk on the TransCanada Trail (Harte Trail in Charleswood).

Now where is that stone I was chasing???

WHAT THE ???? Every time I jump he raises the stick !!

I think they're trying to make the driver sound his airhorn - how embarassing...

  Pals...

  Trust...

  Curses, the peanut butter is just out of my reach...

  And because I'm so cute
  I need two treats !!

  I wonder what that little boy will do next ?

  Is there anything better than getting to lick out the oatmeal cookie batter bowl ?

  Waiting for Santa, or perhaps waiting for someone to open the bag of treats under the tree...

  Yes, these are my toys !
  Why do you ask ???

  Just checking each other out.
  you just never know who might
  be in YOUR yard !

  Grrr. I'm a wild and
  wooly Wheaten !!!

  Biscuit celebrates her 5th birthday!

  What, another picture?
  We are smiling!!!

Wheaten Winter Wear Fashions
On the left, international orange so you can't lose your pet. And on the right, camouflage to help your Wheaten sneak up on a rabbit (before it runs away...)

  Ah, a fearsome bearded Wheaten pirate..

  Hide the milkbones!!

  I only have to wear this for 5 minutes...

  Right? RIGHT??

  In case you didn't know it, these two are NOT Captain Hook and her first mate Smee...

  This is a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier.
  Really ??!!??
  Really...

  What a mooch!

  Don't come any closer!!
  Cyril is having his nap...



  Paw print? What paw prints?
  It was a cat, those are cat prints...
  HONEST !!??!!

  Cleck on the left side and you get one picture. Click on the right side and you get a different picture.   Whiskey and Soda up to their usual hijinx.
  Left: I was here FIRST!      Right: What's for dinner?

  I just love running
  through the leaves!

  Treats?
  Did someone say treats!!!

  Well, are you coming or not!!

  This Wheaten is waiting for a squirrel. He may be there a long, long time...

  Now, you're SURE they're friendly !!!

  I know it's beautiful,
  but where is my blankie??

  Where did my old road go?
  It was here yesterday!

  I'm keeping the mosquitoes away!
  Why do you ask?

  3, 2, 1
  Ready or not, here I come!

  So, who's ready for a rematch?

  First a photo then ice cream!

  Toby 6th birthday, waiting on the dock for the ducks...

  There's not a chance you're leaving without ME!!

  The hairy first mate.
"15 degrees to port Mr. Christian if you please..."

  Wheaten Wet Suit - great idea!

  Hmmm, hope these big guys are friendly...

  3 years old and still cute as a button!

  Got room for me?
Wheaten boarding from the port side!!

You've heard of:
"3 scoops of rasins in every box of...",
how about 3 Wheatens in every scoop

  Waiting for his Sunday egg
- a cottage tradition!

Are you sure this is my best side?

     Here I am, are you ready for another run?

Are we there yet???

     Careful, careful! You know I don't like to get wet!

Ah spring and the annual; "Me? I tracked in mud?
No way..."

     Hmm, I don't think I would try to get those terriers off this couch...

Yes, this is MY chair and I'm very comfortable, why do you ask?

  Appearances can be deceiving.
  Left mouse click on the picture to find out why!

Ah, a morning rest.        What?          A squirrel?          Where?

Feb 17/2008, meeting a fellow walker on the Assiniboine Forest trails

River Rats, Wheaten style!
Bring towels...

A Winter Adventure at the Charleswood Off-Leash Dog Park

Say, are you new here?

Want a game of tag?
You're it!

C'mon Wheaten, faster!

Had enough???

My new home!
Now, where is my food??

Hmm, is this little brown thing
my new companion?

Cooling off,
MAGGIE in the snow!

LACEY at 16
a great Christmas present!

windy winter wheaten

Want to see me jump?

Pups and more pups!

If there's a fire, where did you hide the weiners?

That's it, I'm done for the day...

What was that?
What was that??

I'm thinking walk, and you?

"Couch Pillow Toss" - An Olympic event in most Wheaten homes!

     Yes, he chases the frisbee, but he doesn't bring it back or drop it - sound familiar???

     TARA; What, me jump hoops? In your dreams, I'm waaay too cool!

     Ahhh, the only place on a hot day!

     Should this be called two_cute or too_cute..!

Life at the Lake, It Doesn't Get Any Better

Cooling off,
Wheaten style

What was that noise?
Hopefully it's only a squirrel!

Run awaaay!

Getting Ready For The Show

Getting ready
for the show

A Phillips screwdriver?
Are you sure?

Now remember Stan,
counter-clockwise to open!

Yes, I'm a Wheaten Terrier,
why do you ask?

A really "tough" pair, a Wheaten and an Airedale
beating up on a ferocious rabbit hat!

     ...4 3 2 1

Ready or not, here we come!

     What, you're passing here and on the right??

It's almost spring and we have snowflakes the size of Christmas stamps!!
Walking on the TransCanada Trail on March 17, 2007!!

Can I get down now?

Let's see, will I attack the cat or have a nap? Ok, nap first...

Don't I look like a Wise Wheaten?

I think the dog wants to go out. Remember how we all waited for that great moment when your Wheaten signalled that he/she wanted to go out. Finally, patience rewarded!

     You go first...
     NO, you go first !!

Just the best picture from Calgary!

I've seen flying fish but never flying Wheatens !!

Want to attract dogs?
Right, treats!!

Follow the leader, Wheaten style
the human goes first, just in case...

    C'mon, c'mon slowpoke !!

   Walking Wheatens in a white Winnipeg winter...

   Where's the path, I know it was right here ..??

     This is MY hill !!!

You mean I have to share MY hill, awwww...

     Did someone say Christmas tree?
     We heard Christmas treat!!

Awwww...

And just how long do we have to wait?

I dunno, I thought the green went better...

I wonder how long it took to get them in the right place, and then how long they stayed like that!!!

      So, if
   a group of unicorns is called a blessing,
   a group of larks is called an exaltation,
   a group of kangaroos is called a mob,
   a group of whales is called a pod,
   a group of geese is called a gaggle,
   does that mean a group of Wheatens is called a waggle...

     What a mooch! Just go to the neighbours when you need that extra little something...

     Which one is sleeping beauty...

Good nature shot

Winter fun!

SIMON proving that Wheatens love snow!

I can't believe I ate all those wieners, where's the Pepto!

Somehow WINNIE does not suit the scary Viking guard dog role, more like a Lapp lap dog...

BOGEY (on the left) checking out his feathered friends, while TOBY (on the right) is busy herding the ducks, which he has done many times.

"Waiting Wheaten", TT hiding patiently for an unsuspecting rabbit.

"Wheaten in the Woods", too bad the rabbit lives on the other side of the path...

TARA: I need a groom.... I know you have a zero tolerance for matts... what about burrs?? (Anyone have a comb and lots of patience and maybe a pair of scissors...)

And just how do you get your beverage at the lake???

BOGEY: Left, more left, up, up, dowm Ahhhh!!!
That's it, right there!!!!??

SEGER. BISCUIT and MARLEY relaxing at Lac Lu, tough life...

TARA on a tear. This is one of the hardest pictures to take - a Wheaten in full motion. Just an excellent shot by Alex.

BAILEY at 12 weeks. Maybe I'm a little prejudiced, but is there anything cuter than a puppy, especially a Wheaten puppy!

TUCKER?? One of TOBY's litter mates, August 2002

SIGNE demonstrating the famous "Leapin' Greetin' Wheaten" move!

TOBY: Maybe I should have flossed...
That's his "cousin" NELLIE ignoring him.

Pups always mean there will be a tug-of-war somewhere. Cute though!

I'm waiting for the chipmunk, and you?

I know, I know, this is a Wheaten Website, but it's such a cute little dog. I checked - it's milk not Cristal beer. Picture taken by a friend in the village of Varadero, Cuba.

I couldn't resist this picture, my first dog when I was 4 was a Boston terrier. Great dogs!
