Guardian Homes
What is a Guardian Home?
All of our breeding dogs live with us OR a guardian home, this way, all of our dogs get all the love and care possible, and our home is not to full of dogs.
A guardian home is a family that takes care of one of our breeding dogs and cares for them their entire life.
This is a wonderful opportunity, as the guardian family will receive our pick of the litter, which means you get the best of the litter, in both temperament and breeding quality.
A guardian family cares for the dog for its entire breeding life, while we maintain breeding rights. When the dog is ready to be done breeding (For females, about three to four litters, for males they are around five to six years old) we retire the dog and give the guardian family complete ownership, with the option to spay or neuter at our expense.
The guardian home will cover all maintenance expenses and we will cover any breeding related expenses.
There is a fee of $250 to become a guardian home, which we will refund at the end of the contract.
