We have some upcoming Guardian Family opportunities.
What is a Guardian Family…?
A Guardian family is a carefully selected family who raises and loves one of our breeding dogs as their own family pet, while we retain breeding rights.
For us this works like this:
🐶 The dog lives permanently with the guardian family and is raised and treated as your own. Giving the dog a normal, loving family life, training, exercise and companionship.
🐶 We remain responsible for breeding-related health testing, breeding costs and welfare decisions for the term of the contract.
🐶 General day to day feeding, care, worming, flea/tick/heartworm prevention and annual or emergency vet costs are at the guardian family’s expense.
🐶 When the dog reaches the appropriate age and has passed required health testing, the dog is return temporarily to us when on season, for mating, end of pregnancy and to whelp and raise a litter.
🐶 After the agreed breeding period is completed (generally 3 litters), the dog is retired, desexed and full ownership is transferred to the guardian family.
This allows a boutique breeder such as ourselves to maintain a smaller breeding program while giving breeding dogs the opportunity to live in family homes as cherished family pets and full companion dogs, not in kennels.
In simple terms:
The breeder provides the breeding program and retains breeding rights under contract and the guardian family provides the forever home.
