Heartland Aussies

Heartland Aussies is a breeder of Australian shepherds in Wakarusa, IN, located in Northern Indiana near South Bend. Kara Wenger has been breeding Australian shepherds for over a decade and participates in the Australian Shepherd Club of America. Each adult dog receives routine hip and eye screenings through independent veterinary testing and genetic panels to minimize common breed issues. Puppies grow up inside the family home with regular handling and exposure to children and other pets.

They enjoy supervised play in a secure, fenced yard as part of daily life. Many families mention how well the pups adapt to new surroundings and bond quickly with household members. Health records and photo updates are shared with each new owner to help ease the transition and build trust. The dogs live on a small family farm with quiet pastures and nearby trails for daily exercise.
