Established in 2016, we have been breeding Australian Shepherds in the smaller size. Later we moved to raising Miniature American Shepherds.

Here at Wrightway Wigglebutts our main goal is to breed Australian Shepherds of the miniature size to maintain breed standard and preserve the Australian Shepherd for future generations. We strive for creating sound structured, mentally stable, highly socialized, well rounded pups to fit the needs of our pups’ families. This program is driven through passion and love for the breed. We are a small, in-home program to allow for maximum socialization to every pup. Our dogs are raised on 6 acres rural farm land which allows plenty of room to enjoy romping around and running through our trails. We focus on the 14"-18" size variety here though smaller and larger sizes occur do to the variance in genetics. All of our dogs are registered through ASDR (American Stock Dog Registry) some are dual registered with AKC as Australian Shepherds and we have recently been making the switch to dual registering our dogs with AKC as Miniature American Shepherds. We did this to allow for more opportunity for our dogs to be shown locally rather than having to travel far. We are driven to educate and share this amazing breed to the public. In doing so, lots of research has been done to keep up on the latest findings such as genetic health testing, color testing, bloodlines, nutrition etc. We enjoy sharing our dogs with others and creating lasting friendships along the way.

All dogs come loved by our family. From birth until they are ready for their new homes, their health is our number one priority. With this is mind our home is closed to the public. We do not accept people into our home due to various reasons. First and foremost, our family’s safety both two and four legged are our upmost concern. Second, we cannot put any of our unborn or unvaccinated pups at risk to exposure of parvo and other communicable diseases from outside sources. With this day and age unfortunately we have to take precautions for the safety and wellbeing of our home, family and the future of our program. We are happy to meet at our local vet clinic to better know you and for you to feel more comfortable with our program.

All our pups are raised in our home and loved on daily by our family. When ready (at least eight weeks), they are up to date on vaccinations, on a strict deworming schedule, come microchipped, and receive a thorough exam from our veterinarian. They are also backed with a one year genetic health guarantee and come with 30 days free insurance through Trupanion. All pups are started on Nutrisource Small and Medium Puppy Food. We are here for the lifetime of our pups, please always reach out to us for anything. If you have questions or concerns feel free to call or message us. These are our family members and we care deeply for them. When purchasing a Wrightway pup you are added to our extended family for life!


A little about myself:

My name is Hailey Wright (hence the name Wrightway Wigglebutts). I am a Michigan State University Alum, I graduated in 2018 with my Bachelor’s in Animal Science with a focus on poultry. I have been an avid animal lover since a young girl and have now spread my love and passion on to my family including my parents, fiancé, extended family and friends. I fell in love with the Australian Shepherd as a young teen and since then my heart has only grown stronger for this wonderful breed.

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.
