ABOUT US

Every puppy that comes into the world at Wendy's Aussies Home is born into warmth, into calm hands, and into a family that will never treat them as anything less than cherished. We believe these early days shape a puppy's entire life, so we treat each one with the tenderness and structure they deserve. From the moment they're born, they are weighed, monitored, and nurtured. We ensure they are growing strong, latching properly, and bonding not only with their mother but with us. Socialization doesn't start at eight weeks here—it starts from the very first day.
We keep our breeding program small on purpose. We are not a kennel. We are not mass-producing puppies. We are a home, and our puppies are raised inside with us—right alongside daily life, kids laughing, music playing, conversations, footsteps, doorbells, vacuum cleaners, and all the things a dog must become accustomed to in order to thrive in a real-world family setting. We believe the best dogs are raised in the heart of the home. Our adult dogs are our family first. They are loved, spoiled, trained, exercised, and health tested. We don’t just breed them—we live with them. They sleep in our rooms, play in our yard, and enjoy adventures with us. They are chosen for more than their stunning coats or pedigree papers. They are chosen for their temperament, their intelligence, and their ability to pass on the kind of personality that makes Australian Shepherds such treasured companions.
What makes our puppies different is not just how they look, but how they feel. They come to you already confident, because they’ve been handled gently, spoken to with love, and introduced to a world that makes sense. We start litter training early. We begin crate exposure before they ever leave. We help them meet other animals, different people, and safe experiences that lay the foundation for trust. Our goal is to raise puppies that transition easily into your home, your rhythm, your life. Puppies that don't just survive change, but embrace it. We also believe that choosing the right puppy means choosing the right match. That’s why we take the time to understand your lifestyle, your hopes, your experience level, and what kind of companion you’re really looking for. We don’t rush placements. We don’t push puppies. We listen, observe, and guide. We want each match to feel like fate—not chance. This means we often know which puppy belongs where before the new owner even steps foot on our property.
We are committed to transparency. If you have questions, we answer them honestly. If you want to meet the parents, we introduce you. If you want to see where our puppies are raised, we show you. We post updates, videos, and pictures so you can follow along as your new family member grows. We keep our lines open and our hearts available. And long after your puppy leaves our arms, we’re still here. To answer questions. To share in your joy. To support you through challenges. We do not disappear after a sale, because to us, it was never just a sale. It was a beginning.
We also value education. Not everyone comes to us as a seasoned dog owner, and that's okay. We take the time to walk you through what an Australian Shepherd needs to be happy. We talk about training, mental stimulation, physical activity, and emotional connection. We prepare you for the realities—not just the highlights. We want you to succeed, because when you succeed, our puppies thrive. The biggest compliment we receive isn’t just about how cute our puppies are. It’s about how well-adjusted they are. How easy they were to train. How they fit seamlessly into their new homes. That is the true measure of our work.
Every litter is carefully planned with intention. We study bloodlines, we prioritize health, and we look years ahead when making decisions. We never overbreed. We never compromise. Our females get plenty of time to rest between litters, and we are there every step of the way during pregnancy, birth, and weaning. We work closely with our veterinarian and we take every precaution to ensure both mom and pups are safe, healthy, and thriving. It is not always easy work, but it is always worth it.
When it comes time for a puppy to leave us, we do everything possible to make the transition smooth. We provide a care package, a blanket that smells like mom and siblings, starter food, health records, and guidance. We offer shipping options that are safe and comfortable, and we encourage pickup when possible. And when that little Aussie finally meets their new person, our hearts are full. It’s a beautiful moment, every single time.
But Wendy’s Aussies Home is more than just puppies. It’s a community. We have a growing family of past adopters who share stories, photos, training tips, and life updates. It brings us so much joy to watch our puppies grow and thrive in their new homes. We celebrate birthdays, new tricks, new babies, and everything in between. We are honored to be a small part of so many lives, and we never take that trust lightly.
So, who are we? We are a family. We are dog lovers. We are caretakers of a breed that deserves the very best. We are people who believe that doing something with love and integrity matters. If you are here, reading this, considering us as the place where your next chapter might begin, know this: we see you. We care about your story. And we are ready to help you find the four-legged companion who will walk beside you, love you unconditionally, and bring light into your days. This is what we do. This is who we are. And we can’t wait to welcome you to the Wendy's Aussies Home family.
