We are looking for a guardian for this beautiful girl, coincidentally named Guardian. She has nearly reached her full size (about 40 pounds), but has not yet grown out of her puppy phase. She has lots of energy and is very friendly with people and other pets. Guardian homes are our way of creating an ethical, sustainable breeding program. We place each of our dogs in a loving forever home where they are able to enjoy all the perks of being a dog while remaining a part of our program. This allows us to focus our time and attention on each of our active mamas and their puppies. When the dogs are ready to whelp a litter, they will come stay with us for 8-10 weeks while they birth, wean, and raise their puppies. At the end of the 8-10 weeks, we return them to your home and wait until the next time they are ready to breed. The deposit to adopt a guardian dog is $500, but in return we offer a $500 “thank you” bonus to our guardians each time a litter of puppies is successfully bred. Each of our guardian homes must have a fully fenced yard and be able to meet the basic needs of a dog (including food, grooming, and regular vet visits). We cover any breeding related costs, such as ultrasounds and other pregnancy related vet expenses. We’re happy to answer any questions you might have about the dog or our program. Feel free to call or text Kiah Tew at xxx-xxx-xxxx. You can also find additional information at https://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/become-a-guardian. We’re often looking for guardian homes for multiple breeds, so if you’d like to consider another dog, feel free to ask.
