Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Merrigang Australian Terriers located in Fletcher, NC. I breed only when I want a puppy for myself or another breeder. My puppies are bred for conformation, performance, and or pets. I strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy. Sometimes the most ordinary things can be made extraordinary simply by doing them with an Australian Terrior.

Heather’s experience

  • About Heather

    I am a veterinarian and my dogs are conformation and performance dogs. They live in my house and I have no more than 3 dogs at a time.

  • What makes Heather’s program special

    I only breed when I need a puppy, so I take careful consideration of what I look for in a sire. I carefully match pedigrees and health clearances and temperament.

More about Heather

  • Why Heather started breeding

    I downsized from Dobermans ( rescue ) to Australian Terriers. My contract stated that I would finish my bitches championship and breed her to the sire of the breeder's choice. I would then give her a puppy and she would sign off on the co-ownership
