While we would love to keep all of our dogs with us, we understand that they need and they would be happier with more one-on-one attention than we can give them The Guardian Program allows us to grow our program and continue to better our breeds, without sacrificing any of our dog's happiness and need for love and attention. 

A guardian home means you are the permanent home for one of our breeding dogs while they are in our program. Once retired from our program, they will be spayed/neutered at our expense, and full ownership will transfer to you, the guardian family, and live with you forever. By offering the guardian program, we can ensure that our dogs get to live the best possible lives in a loving, caring home where they receive as much one-on-one attention as possible. This also allows you to have one of our hand picked precious fur babies or young adults as a family pet while he or she remains in our program at no upfront cost to you!

What expenses is a Guardian family responsible for? 

Guardians are responsible for all "regular" dog care including providing food, treats, toys, etc. They are also responsible for normal vet care that is not breeding related. The dog must be kept UTD on all shots, flea and tick meds, and heartworm meds at guardians expense. Guardians are also required to pay for grooming.

Does it confuse or negatively impact the dog going back and forth?
