MacPhail Wheatens
Meet the breeder
I'm Sandra R., the breeder behind MacPhail Wheatens located in Massachusetts. It is our goal to produce healthy, show-quality puppies with wonderful temperaments. With this in mind, we consider a variety of factors when making breeding decisions, and we only breed dogs that are exemplary representations of the standard. We provide each of our dogs and puppies with the best care, and we ensure each pup that we don’t keep goes to a responsible, loving home.
