Guess I should have read the Wheaten standard also!

Having finished more than my fair share of wheatens, I thought I would jump in 
here..

CORRECTION! It does not say that the wheaten cannot be trimmed, they had that 
"in the beginning" when no one knew what to do with them. it says specifically 
in the Soft Coated Wheaten Standard...(and I bolded and blackened a few of the 
important things to think about when trimming a wheaten)

Presentation--For show purposes, the Wheaten is presented to show a terrier 
outline, but coat must be of sufficient length to flow when the dog is in 
motion. The coat must never be clipped or plucked. Sharp contrasts or 
stylizations must be avoided. Head coat should be blended to present a 
rectangular outline. Eyes should be indicated but never fully exposed. Ears 
should be relieved of fringe, but not taken down to the leather. Sufficient 
coat must be left on skull, cheeks, neck and tail to balance the proper length 
of body coat. Dogs that are overly trimmed shall be severely penalized.

So in short, its "trimming a dog without making it look trimmed"

Scissoring is not against AKC rules, many breeds are scissored.� I just 
re-read our standard to make sure of my facts.� Our standard is silent on the 
subject of trimming or scissoring.� There are some breeds, like the Soft 
Coated Wheaten Terrier, whose standard specifically says no trimming, but ours 
does not.

And I almost always agree with you--you KNOW me; I'm either negative� 
nor a finger pointer. . .but isn't scissoring against the AKC rules?���
Isn't it changing the appearance?� That is what the point has been� 
with me--if this bitch is so good, then show her "au natural."
