I'm Wade C., the breeder behind WC Ranch located in Spanish Fork, UT. All of our Aussies are bred, raised, and loved indoors to produce happy, healthy pets for those seeking the best family companion! We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love of an Australian Shepherd with other individuals and families!
Q. & A. with Wade
Why did you start breeding?
I have always raised animals my whole life, and I love it. My neighbor has been breeding Australian Shepherds for over 10 years, and I used to work for her and fell in love with raising puppies.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
