Grooming

This coat which is considered to be non-shedding  requires a tremendous amount of
maintenance (brushing and combing daily) to keep it free of mats.   

Coat care is a commitment you must make to your pup.  Imagine what it would feel like
if your hair wasn't brushed daily and several weeks later someone suddenly  took a
brush with sharp prongs and started raking it over your scalp.  This is what a wheaten
goes through when their owners do not take the 15 minutes daily to brush and then
comb them out.

to brush and comb, and trimming - click on the link below.
