Q. & A. with Angela
Why did you start breeding?
Wigglebutt -Our dogs enrich our lives every day. They make us laugh until we cry, and have endless love to give. They are capable of doing anything and everything. Versatile, agile, intelligent and lovable, they seem to know what you are thinking, what you are feeling and what you are going to do before you do it. They are eager to please and the best of companions.What makes your program special?
Without our partner families, there would be no Wigglebutts. Bill & I have 3 retired dogs 1 breeding dog. Our Partner families enable us to have a wider gene pool and only breed the very best representatives of the breed. More importantly, they are FANTASTIC homes! They are very passionate about their babies and take our breath away with the amazing things they do with dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black & white, red & white, red tri-color, black tri, 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.

Amazing Experience with Angela from Wigglebutt! Adopting our Miniature American Shepherd, Bear, from Angela was a fantastic experience. Angela was kind, professional, and clearly loves her dogs. She even arranged transport for Bear so we didn’t have to travel as far—such a thoughtful gesture that made the process even smoother. Bear arrived happy, healthy, and well-socialized. It’s clear he was raised with so much love and care. I’m beyond grateful to Angela for helping me find the perfect pup. Highly recommend Wigglebutts to anyone looking for a Mini American Shepherd!
