Good evening Wheaten Health Matters members! We are excited to launch a promotion to entice our owners to enter their Wheaten Terriers into the database and entice our breeders to enter their litters! Entering a dog in the database can be done by clicking on this link. Be sure to fill out as much information as possible on your Wheaten. Here are some FAQ's:
What is a health record? Well it could be anything, skin allergies, guppies, cancers, reproduction issues such as a stricture, missed breeding, ortho issues, kidney or liver issues, accidents,
Does the dog have to be living now? No. We want all dogs entered, having the date of brith and the date of death shows longevity in the breed.
Do you have to have vet records ? No but we really want them. Even if you complete the entry go back through your emails or files and send those records.
Can you just update your dogs information? YES!!!!!
For Wheaten breeders - contact our Database Admin for help but any litter as the flyer says. Pam and Kathy are here to help you.

Greetings Wheaten Owners:

Here we are again, at the end of another year. I do not know where the time goes. It seems like November sneaks up every year and I am making a New Year’s resolution to start this newsletter earlier. First and foremost, the Endowment team hopes this letter finds that you and your family (both two and four-legged) had a happy and healthy 2025 year. We know that we lost some of our great donors this year and some great Wheatens based on the tributes you made in your donation letters to us. When one of your Wheatens passes on, we find ourselves mourning our own Wheatens all over again as well as mourning with you. Your heartfelt tributes to them in your donation letters or on your social media pages are what keep us focused on supporting research and working hard for the breed we have all come to love.

Looking into the future, as is true with the start of every new year, we remain dedicated, enthusiastic and optimistic in fulfilling our mission to support and fund Wheaten health and research projects. This year breeders were faced with the realization that we have become an AKC Low Entry Breed. We have seen declining registrations for many years now but this was a big surprise. Every day is a new challenge in the preservation of our breed but one we take on with great enthusiasm and dedication. We have seen great improvements in the breed’s longevity because of our breeders’ and owners’ dedication to health.

Thank you for your continued support of the SCWTCA Health Endowment and
the SCWT Health and Pedigree Database. It is again, the National Day of Giving and we believe that means we exist to give back to you, your Wheatens and our breed. We are pleased to provide you
with our 2025 Winter Newsletter. Along with my New Year’s resolution to start this newsletter earlier, we hope you will make it your New Year’s resolution to create or update your Wheaten’s database records.

Consider giving this newsletter to your veterinarian or, if you are a breeder, forwarding it to your owners. Drop us an email at [email protected] if would like us to mail one directly to them.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,
Anna Marzolino
Chair, SCWTCA Endowment Inc.

Attention Dog/Wheaten Owners:
One of the most common questions breeders receive from owners are regarding those strange bumps, lumps and weird growths on their dog. It is always worrisome when they appear and some of them grow very fast. Some owners panic thinking their dog has cancer. There is no need to panic but it is important to understand them and know how to treat them. A bump on your Wheaten doesn’t automatically mean cancer. While skin bumps and strange lumps on dogs should always be taken seriously, certain types of bumps are more common than you might think, and they’re often harmless. Because this is such a common problem we are turning to Dr Ed Jazic, DVM DACVD (that means board certified canine dermatologist) for a one hour presentation and then Q & A with participants on November 18, 2025 at 4:00 pacific time. This webinar is free to you and graciously paid for by SCWTCA Health Endowment Inc. donors. You can send questions and photos in advance to [email protected]....  We encourage participants to attend the live presentation as this is your opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Dr. Jazic. The webinar will be recorded for future viewing.
Best of all your dog doesn’t have to be a Wheaten to attend. We love all dogs and want them well. So feel free to share this post.
Dr. Jazic presented a webinar on Dermatology that was wildly popular and has been viewed many times. To date we have had 27, 519 views on our Webinars in four years. We hope to see you there.
Anna Marzolino is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
