Expected Miniature Australian Shepherd litter
Due Mar. 2026
I'm Hailey W., the breeder behind Wrightway Wigglebutts located in Dowagiac, MI. A small in-home program of AKC/ASDR Australian Shepherds and AKC Miniature American Shepherds dedicated to preserving this wonderful breed. I strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy. All puppies come up to date on vaccines and are seen by our veterinarian twice before leaving for homes at 8 weeks old. They come microchipped, 30 day free pet insurance, contract in place, and 1 year genetic health guarantee.

Great health testing

About Shelby
Shelby is out of our “Heart of Dixie” litter from Ellie and outside sire Ziggy. She consists of blue eyed tris from both sides. Her mom is much larger so Shelby can throw quite the variety depending on who we pair her with. My goal is get consistent smaller sized pups in the 14-16in range. Shelby should help make a great impact on my program in giving my the structure, size and temperament we strive for in our pups. Shelby is now a UKC Champion. She is my first dog that I showed to receiving her Champion title. To make it even better she is a homebred pup out of foundation dam Ellie. Shelby is not a fan of showing in the conformation ring, my goal has been achieved and she will remain at home where we have big plans of some special breedings with her.

About Nora
Nora is a beautiful red merle out of our “Heart of Dixie” litter from Ellie and outside sire Ziggy. She consists of blue eyed tris from both sides and has a super sweet personality. She is a goofball like her momma. We are excited to see her future with us at Wrightway. Hopefully she can stamp her wonderful personality, size and structure onto her pups. Nora has recently started running fastcat and has been a rockstar. within 3 days she earned her BCAT title. W are excited to have her run more and excel in other performance events.

About Shasta
Shasta we acquired from Savannah with Dreamline Aussies. However she was bred by Longmile Aussies based out of Oregon. Shasta is a beautiful athletic built girl that carries outside bloodlines. She is a blue eyed red tri with deep copper points that make her a knockout! We are excited to see what she brings to our program. We are thankful to have acquired a couple daughters in co-own homes.

About Bullitt
Bullitt is an AKC/ASDR registered Australian shepherd black bi stud that I am super excited about! Bullitt comes from a 15in sire and dam. Bullitt has proven to help to add more depth to some of my females all while producing smaller like his parents. Both parents are double blue eyed black bis and he has thrown some blue eyed tris as well. Bullitt has a lovely head that will compliment any female with a stout body and OMG hair to die for! We are hoping for big things to come in the future from this stud. Bullitt has recently earned his BCAT title within 3 weekends of running Fastcat. Bullitt loves the sport and I am excited for him to do more!

About Hopper
Hopper is a handsome blue merle male bred by us. He is out of our “Mash” themed litter by our female Cricket and male Sully. Hopper is a fun, quirky boy that loves his momma and is a small guy. Hopper has found a passion for water like his dad and absolutely goes nuts over the hose! We are hopeful for his future here at Wrightway as he is second generation of our breeding. Hopper is now proven with multiple litters on the ground. We are looking forward to his future and more offspring. Hopper thoroughly enjoys dock diving! He has earned a couple dock jumping titles through UKC and he has earned his first dock diving title through NADD (North American Dock Diving). I am excited to get out more and earn more titles on this handsome boy.

About Synj
Synj is a fun, spunky boy! Synj is a little guy at 14.75in. He has passed his OFA’s with flying colors and is actively showing with UKC. We should acquire his Champion title this spring along with his BCAT title in fastcat. We are so thankful for Karen at Atomic Miniature American Shepherds for parting with this boy and allowing us to further our program and start our new adventure with Miniature American Shepherds. We are so looking forward to our future with him.

About Tex
Tex is a such a fun, spunky toy sized Aussie stud we acquired by chance. I can’t thank Kuttin Up Aussie in Texas for allowing us to get this little man to Michigan from Texas. This guy doesn’t know a stranger and will love and give kisses all day long. Literally one of the best tempered aussies I have met and been around. He couldn’t be happier meeting me straight off the few hour flight. He is double registered as AKC Miniature American Shepherd and ASDR Toy Australian Shepherd. He will downsize our line to keep the smaller size while still maintaining the structure and bone that we like to see here. He passed his OFA prelims with flying colors and will be soon expecting some offspring for spring of 2025!

About Sienna
Sienna was born from Nessi’s last litter out of our male Augie. Nessi made a large footprint on our program and we are hoping Sienna will do the same. We are excited to see what she brings to our program. Sienna is ASDR only but we will continue with these lines as she presents great drive and love for Frisbee. I plan on getting her more involved with sports and showing with UKC.
