Guardian Homes
Why Use Guardian Homes?
We give a dog to a guardian and that dog is the guardian's for life, but we breed them 3 times between 18 months of age and 4 years old. We look for guardians on the Olympic Peninsula or Kitsap Peninsula, preferable within an hour of Sequim.
We believe all dogs deserve to be in a loving home and not have to live in a kennel. Because of this, our Australian Labradoodles will be either members of our family or live with another family that will provide them the love and attention they need. Because we are committed to producing the highest quality Australian Labradoodle puppies we can, we raise the offspring in our home, where they are loved and handled by adults and children before they go to their forever homes. In order to expand our breeding program, we need the help of qualified Guardian Homes willing to raise breeding dogs for us in their homes with all of the love and care that we would give them if we could keep them all ourselves!
What Is A Guardian Home?
A Guardian Home is a person or family that acquires one of our breed quality puppies to become a member of their family. Guardians of females must have an adult home most of the day and be available for breeding in our home or the guardian's home for 3 breedings.. Males could be bred 4-6 times a year between 1 year old and 6 years old.
Guardians must agree to follow the conditions set forth in the contract. When the dog is retired from breeding, the dog is spayed or neutered and the contract expires. The dog then remains with the Guardian Home for life.
