Guardian Program

Take a look at an opportunity to be part of our breeding program.

What is a Guardian Program?

A guardian program allows our breeding dogs to live their best lives as loved family pets, while their families participate in our breeding program and enjoy a “furever” companion

​

Guardian programs typically last until the dog is about four years old or younger. If selected, you will raise the puppy or dog as your own. They will return to us occasionally for health testing and breeding, and females will stay with us for approximately seven weeks when they have a litter (males as needed for breeding). After their final litter, we cover the cost of spay/neuter, and full ownership is transferred to you.

Requirements

  • Desire to raise, train, and care for a Standard Poodle as part of your home.

  • Fenced yard

  • No in-tact male dogs at the home

  • Live within 1.5 hours of Enterprise, Utah (84725)

Perks for Guardian Homes:

  • Pay for your puppy in an exchange for your time and effort in providing a great home for one of our dogs.

  • Free grooming during guardianship period (if you live close enough).

  • Free boarding while you are away (as long as we are home, they can stay with us).

  • Monetary gift with each litter.
