About WILSONG
WHO IS WILSONG?
WHO IS WILSONG?
WHO IS WILSONG?
My name is Garoleen Wilson. The name WILSONG is simply my last name followed by my first initial.
I'm a lifelong animal lover, retired groomer, dog show enthusiast and crazy dog lady. I've also been referred to as the crazy chicken lady.
My husband Joe and I were high school sweethearts and he is still the love of my life. Yes, even more than the dogs!
Joe and I have two grown daughters and four granddaughters.
Showing and breeding dogs is only part of a busy life. Joe farms and has a growing commercial beef cow herd.
I also have a pastured poultry operation on our homeplace near Smith Center, KS. We have meat birds including chickens and occasionally ducks and turkeys on the farm from March through October.
As a lover of rare breeds I also have a rare breed of chickens called Erminette and a few Normande cattle. Our most recent rare breed addition is a four year old imported Croatian Sheepdog named Mara.
I prefer to have litters of puppies in the winter months when I have plenty of time to devote to them.
Our dogs eat primarily raw meat & bone diet, supplemented by premium kibble. As you can guess our dogs eat a lot of beef, chicken, duck, turkey, eggs and some venison.

Our show prospects are guaranteed against any genetic defects or disqualifying faults. If your puppy is diagnosed by a qualified veterinarian as having a genetic defect or disqualifying fault, we will replace it from a subsequent litter once we receive proof of spay/neuter. All guarantees are void if the dog is bred before 2 years of age.
All of our puppies are micro-chipped before going home and permanently registered with AKC. Individual UKC registration is available for show/breeding prospects.
Pet/companion puppies are sold with limited registration on a spay/neuter contract. No dog will be sold for the sole purpose of breeding. Any puppy sold as a show prospect must have titles and the proper health clearances before being bred or all guarantees are void.
From time to time we may have adolescent dogs or retired show dogs available for sale. While they may not have grown up to meet our expectations for our breeding program, they will make wonderful pets/companions and should easily transition to a new home.
Once your application has been approved, you will be added to the waitlist; however this is not a guarantee we will have a puppy for you. A wait list is a fluid thing since people want different things. Some want a female vs a male or a spotty puppy vs solid. Some people will find a puppy elsewhere. Just because you may not be first on the list, doesn't mean you won't end up with an opportunity for a puppy. If you do get a puppy elsewhere we request that you let us know so we can remove you from the waitlist.
