I'm Megan B., the breeder behind Legacy Wheatens located in Macomb, MI. Our number one focus is the health and wellness of our dogs. We offer in-home raised Wheaten Terriers you will love for a lifetime. We are dedicated to providing families with quality Wheaten Terriers. We breed for healthy genetics and good temperament.
Q. & A. with Megan
Why did you start breeding?
After losing two of our Wheaten Terriers very young, we were determined to ensure that other families would not experience the same heartbreaking losses we did. This is when Legacy Wheatens was born. We breed for great health but also to honor our two Wheatens who have passed. Legacy Wheatens was created in loving memory of our pups Frankie and Lucy.
What makes your program special?
We have done years of research to ensure we are providing families with top quality Wheaten Terriers. We are a small hobby breeder with a lot of knowledge and background in breeding. Our Wheatens are apart of our family so you can rest assured knowing that your puppy will be treated as apart of our family too.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
