When we decided to start breeding Sheepadoodles we knew we did not want to be a kennel breeder, but a small family breeder where our dogs are a part of our home and a big part of our family. Because of that, we have decided to offer a Guardian Home Program so all of our dogs can have the best life possible. Becoming a Guardian Home gives you the opportunity to have a “pick of a litter puppy” to add to your family at no cost (the cost of these puppies ranges from $2000 -$5000.) The puppy/dog goes and lives with your family and experiences the normal life of being a puppy/dog! Then when they are matured and ready we will breed them 3-4 times (between the ages of 1-4.) During the breeding time, the female will come and stay with us (a few days during her heat cycle and then will come and stay with us the week before her due date and then thru the time the puppies are 6 weeks old.) Once retired the dog will become a permanent part of your family! As a guardian home, you’ll be responsible for the day-to-day expense of owning a dog- annual exams, vaccinations, grooming, food, etc... As the breeder, I will cover all expenses related to the pregnancy of the female. Each family will be given a generous financial bonus after every litter your female produces. Becoming a Guardian Home is a big responsibility and an amazing experience!! We choose our Guardian homes very carefully! Below are some basic requirements.
