As a Guardian home, you get a free puppy and the dog stays with you as your family member for the life of the dog. We retain Ownership and Breeding Rights for a certain number of litters starting at sexual maturity and ending once the female has whelped a set number of litters, or the male has reached a certain age. Each Guardian dog contract is unique, but it usually consist of whelping between 4-5 litters depending on the female and how she reacts during and after whelping.
Our Guardians are responsible for the dog’s regular health maintenance, annual exams, vaccines, flea control, heartworm medication, food, grooming and anything else associated with raising a dog. We pay for genetic health testing and all breeding related expenses. Once the dog has passed their genetic testing, they will be added to our breeding program. We decide when and to whom she will be bred to. She is returned to us on around 7-10 days after starting her cycle for approximately one week and then is returned to the Guardian. The female is returned to us 7-10 days before her due date and will remain with us for 6-7 weeks. After her puppies have been whelped and weaned the female will return home to the Guardian.
When the dog is older and completes her breeding obligations, we pay for spaying and sign over ownership to you. Your dog comes home to enjoy the wonderful life you have provided for him or her since they were a puppy.
There are many things that Guardian families need to consider. Guardians of females sometimes have to deal with several heat cycles and keeping their girl protected from unwanted males. The Guardian family will need to learn the signs of a heat cycle and be willing to communicate, cooperate and coordinate with us to ensure a successful breeding.
Qualifying to be a Guardian Home:
Guardians must be willing to sign a LEGALLY BINDING Guardian Contract. All Guardians will be required to have a fenced in backyard and keep the dog on a leash when out of the home. Guardians must be willing to train the dog basic obedience commands.
Guardians must ensure the puppy is socialized to adults, children, and other animals. GUARDIANS MUST PROVIDE APPROPRIATE VETERINARY and EMERGENCY CARE WHEN NEEDED.
Guardians must feed a diet approved by the breeder.
Guardians must be able to identify and notify us immediately when a female begins her heat cycle.
Guardians must not allow a female in heat near intact males. Guardians must live within a reasonable driving distance of Bradenton, Florida.
The Guardian Program is very simple and a great way for a family to have one of our loving Goldendoodles at minimal costs. We are strictly against Kennel Style Breeding and the idea of Puppy Mills are so upsetting to us, then to me there is no better way than the guardian home program to help reputable breeders continue to breed dogs in a humane and loving environment. In order to continue to produce happy and healthy puppies for families who are looking for a forever pet. We have adopted this wonderful program as responsible reputable breeders and it has worked very well for us and the families involved.
We will have One Petite Mini/Mini Male and One Petite Mini/Mini Female available for the Guardian Home Program in Oct/Nov 2024
