Should you purchase a puppy from us, you will be given a lot of preparatory information and reading material to help you prepare for your puppy. You will also have direct contact with us via text or email or phonecalls for the life of your dog. Additionally our puppy families get the food recipe that we use to make our own dog food. We are completely committed to the benefits of a home-prepared diet, however for those who would like a little help sourcing ingredients, or who want pre-prepared raw food, we also attach these links. We hope this information is valuable for all Australian Wheaten owners.
Wheaten Community websites:
Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Club of America: A great place for general breed information.
Wheaten Health Matters: A facebook group for everything to do with Wheaten health.
The Wheaten Health Initiative is a great UK based health focused website for the breed.
Speak to your breeder about the safest and most helpful places to connect with the wider Wheaten community on social media. We are part of the SCWT Club of Victoria and are connected to the helpful and dedicated members of the breed community around the country.

Dogwise Publishing is a resource of the best written teaching and training.

Food and Feeding Resources:
Many of our puppy familes use the home delivered products of Raw and Fresh.
K9 Rawsome Pet Nutrition is another brilliant supplier of fresh raw food for your dog.
For those who want a dry product, we have heard great things about K9 Naturals and have used it ourself as a meal topper or when we are travelling and the dogs love it.
We also love the food products made by Frontier Pets. We love their emphasis on sourcing ethically farmed ingredients.
All Alinex Wheatens are fed a home prepared whole prey based diet. We use ingredients that are by-products of the human food industry so no animals are killed specifically to supply nutrition for our dogs. Where we have a choice we always choose ingredients from animals that have been free ranged or grass fed.
