Meet the breeder

I'm Heather S., the breeder behind Wild Rooster Family Farm – AKC Anatolian Shepherd Breeder, OFA Health Tested located in Kalispell, MT. At Wild Rooster Family Farm in Kalispell, Montana, our AKC Anatolian Shepherds are raised with sheep, chickens, children, and love. Health-tested and true to their heritage, our pups grow into devoted guardians—protecting family and livestock with confidence while sharing gentle loyalty at home.

Q. & A. with Heather

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We fell in love with the breed and feel strongly about being stewards of these noble dogs. After starting our small farm in Kalispell, Montana—with chickens, sheep, and a summer market garden—we searched far and wide to find the best possible genetics and welcomed our Anatolians into the family.
  • What makes your program special?

    We keep a small, intentional program with just three dogs on 20 fenced acres, allowing them to live freely and enjoy a full, enriched life. They spend daily time with sheep and chickens while forming a deep bond with our family. We follow Puppy Culture principles, a thoughtful manding training program, and puppies are well started on potty training by 8 weeks.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    From the beginning the Wild Rooster Family Farm was wonderful. Barrett spent nearly an hour of the phone talking about the puppies and our living situation including the size of our ranch and the personalities of our dog. Heather was wonderful setting up secure payment through Good Dog. We had our puppy shipped, and Barrett was very knowledgeable about this process. Our Ranger quickly became a member of our family. He is quite the character and thinks he is one of the big boys. He joined 3 Cane Corsos, an English Mastiff, and a border collie as well as his humans. He is a healthy energetic boy who is growing like a weed. Thank you Heather and Barrett.

    Heather and Barrett have been amazing throughout the entire process. From puppy updates with pictures and videos, to advice for when I got him and beyond, it’s been an awesome experience. These two truly care about their pups and making sure they go to good homes that will be a good match for the puppy. I’ve never had a puppy shipped to me before, but Barrett walked me through the whole process. I’ve got my boy now, we named him Odin, and he’s doing great. Odin arrived healthy, confident, and clearly loved, which says a lot about the care Heather and Barrett put into raising their pups. I might have to go back to them in a couple of years to get Odin a brother or sister ;). All in all, I cannot speak highly enough of Wild Rooster Family Farm. You can’t go wrong with them.

    We had an absolutely incredible experience getting our puppy from Wild Rooster Farm. We worked with Heather’s husband, Barrett, and from the very beginning Barrett was extremely communicative and professional. He kept us updated every single week with photos, videos, and messages so we always felt included in our puppy’s growth and milestones. He was always available for me to ask questions and help prep for our little guy to come home. When our puppy finally came home, he was everything we hoped for and more—healthy, confident, so handsome, and pretty much potty trained!. At his first vet visit, the doctor said he is a perfect puppy, and we couldn’t agree more. It’s clear that Wild Rooster Family farm puts so much care, intention, and love into breeding and raising their dogs. Not to mention their ranch is absolutely gorgeous! We truly could not be happier with our experience or with our amazing new puppy, Björn. Thank you, Barrett and Wild Rooster for making this such a smooth, joyful, and trustworthy process. Wild Rooster Farm is exceptional, and we would recommend it 20/10 times to anyone looking for a high-quality, well-raised puppy.

    I had the most positive, professional experience working with Heather & Barrett. They took care of everything & completely arranged for the transportation of my puppy. Barrett was always readily available & responded quickly with any questions I had. My new baby girl is an exceptional puppy. When I took her to my vet for her first appt, my vet commended the breeders for their diligence & care. She was impressed with both her health and personality. The community kids come over & play with her to help with her socialization. She Loves each & every one & does so good with all of them. She has already adapted to my other dogs, cats & chickens. I can't wait to watch her grow & develop.

    Can not say enough positive comments about this experience. Wild Rooster obviously puts their hearts and souls into their dogs. From the first e-mail to following up after picking up the puppy, Wild Rooster is there for their customers. My vet was impressed with the health and disposition of my new dog. Choose Wild Rooster. Period.

    We recently adopted an Anatolian Shepherd puppy from Wild Rooster Family Farms, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. Barrett, who we interacted with, was incredibly knowledgeable about the Anatolian Shepherd breed. He took the time to explain their careful breeding practices, the puppies’ health protocols, and the early training they undergo. Despite some last-minute changes to our travel plans, the breeders were amazingly accommodating. We had originally planned a road trip to pick up our puppy, but due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to have her shipped. Barrett and Heather handled everything seamlessly, making the process stress-free and comfortable for us. From the moment we received our puppy, it was clear how well she was cared for. She’s healthy, adorable, and has a wonderful temperament, You can really tell Wild Rooster Family Farms care about their puppy’s and see the dedication to maintaining the breed Overall, our experience with Wild Rooster Family Farms and Barrett was outstanding, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking to welcome an Anatolian Shepherd into their family.
