At that time you will have him neutered per our agreement and he will retire with you at no additional fee. A guardian dog is someone who agrees to raise and care for a breeder’s dog as their family pet. This usually means that the guardian will ensure that the dog is maintained in good health, and will allow the dog to be bred a certain number of times before they are retired. Guardians must surrender the dog to the breeder whenever stud services are needed and on occasions such as, but not limited to, breeding and veterinary visits.
2) Dogs need to be kept on a leash or in a fenced area when unsupervised. The most common method is to apply to a specific organization that rescues animals and matches them with families. Another potential drawback is that you will need to have a lot of patience. If you are not prepared to deal with a dog that needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation, then being a guardian home may not be the right fit for you. Additionally, dogs can be messy and destructive, so you will need to be prepared to deal with some messes and repairs.
What is a guardian dog family?
You must also have plans to live within the 150 miles from us for the next 5 years. You are responsible for the general routine veterinary care and wellness of the puppy/dog placed with you. A non-refundable security fee of $350 will be collected and the new puppy will become your family pet. You will pay for all normal cost of the care and medical expenses of raising a family pet.
One week prior to the due date for the litter, the female will return to our home to whelp her puppies. She will stay with us until all the pups from the litter are weaned (typically at 4-5 weeks). The guardian family will of course be allowed to visit their dog during this time in our home when it is deemed safe. Approved Guardian Homes would be provided our Pick of the Litter puppy that we decide will be an addition to our breeding program. We would waive the purchase price of this puppy in exchange for your service as a Guardian Home. These puppies are the foundation of our breeding program and require commitment and love.
The Basics of Guardian Homes
Females will return when in season, then again to deliver the puppies. The female stays with us for days during her heat cycle, to be bred. Then, she returns to whelp the puppies a week before they are due, staying with us until the puppies are weaned (about 8-9 weeks total).

A home with small children may not be the best environment for a elderly dog with fragile health. A family that travels frequently may not be able to provide the attention and stability that a young dog needs. The guardian home should be able to provide the dog with the care and attention that he or she needs. Rose and Reid Doodles pays for health testing and breeding-related vet expenses while the dog is in our program. The guardian is in charge of all routine, pet-related vet expenses, just like you would with any typical pet dog.
When the appropriate time arrives the puppy will have health and genetic testing to confirm a place in our active breeding program. Once their service to our program has been completed, we provide a spay/neuter and then we transfer full ownership to you the Forever Home. If you are a guardian home for a male stud, your life will be much easier. Once he passes his reproductive testing there will be times when natural breeding is required and he will need to come to our home during that process. They will collect semen from the stud that we can freeze to use at a later date for breeding purposes through Artificial Insemination. Once we have determined we have used him to the fullest potential for our breeding program we will notify you.
It takes commitment, extra attention and love to provide a pregnant dog a safe and healthy environment while she is carrying a litter. We appreciate our Guardian Families for enriching our breeding program with the special care of our program sires and dams. In order to be considered as a Guardian Home, you must live within 90 minutes of Hiddenite, NC and be flexible to drop off and pick up the dog for health testing, vet visits, breeding, and whelping puppies. A guardian puppy/dog is placed with a local family at a reduced cost (around $ ). The benefits to the Guardian family are they receive a top-quality puppy/dog, that must meet the strictest requirements to be in our breeding program, for such a low cost.
The guardians are able to provide structure and training for the dog, and can help the dog to develop good manners. In addition, the guardians can assess the dog’s personality and find a home that is the best match for the dog’s needs. The guardians are responsible for seeking prompt and appropriate veterinary care in the event of injury or illness of the dog. This agreement is between the “Breeder“, Storybrooke Golden’s, and _____________________________________, the “Guardians”. This agreement is for the guardianship of a male/female, _______________________.
10% from each sale is donated to the Marsh Zhinok charity – a Ukrainian feminist organisation providing shelter, essential deliveries and legal and psychological support for women throughout the conflict. The cat is believed to have killed a leashed chihuahua mix on an evening walk on 9 November, KTLA reported. Another attack left a Chihuahua named Taz injured, but it will recover.
Once we receive the test results we decide whether or not the guardian dog will enter our breeding program officially. Once your dog is of age, has passed all of his health testing, and is ready to breed our male dogs will spend a few days at our vet for collection/breeding as needed. Guardians must be able to keep male dogs away from intact female dogs in heat. Males retire at around the age of 7, and after retirement the male will be neutered and continue to live the remainder of his life with his guardian family. This plan is used by many breeders and is often called a foster or “Guardian Home” program. Summarized – the breeding dog lives with their adoptive family and returns to us for breeding as needed.
