The Basics

        We are always looking for guardian homes. In order for us to give our dogs the best possible home, it is important for us to limit how many dogs we keep at our home. To be a good breeder of quality dogs, however, we need to keep, evaluate, and add quality bloodlines to our breeding program. We like to keep a few of our pick puppies to monitor their growth and development. Some will eventually fit into our breeding program. We prefer to place these pick puppies in guardian homes. This breed need to be a part of the family to develop to their full potential. That is why we have a guardian dog program.

 

What is the benefit to you?

You will receive a “pick of the litter” puppy, top quality at a reduced price if any, with a  potential financial benefit, pending the terms of our agreement. This program allows local families an opportunity to own a quality Frenchie without the big price tag.

 

What is the benefit to me?

Our puppy will be in a permanent, forever home, getting the attention and living environment conducive to creating an exceptional pet and allowing us to continue our breeding program.

 

What is the sacrifice for you?

We technically own your puppy until the terms of agreement have been met. Typically females are on contract for 3 (three) to 4 (four) litters, each litter must contain at least 3 puppies to be considered a full litter and a certain age for males. Once the terms are met, we will spay/neuter and we will transfer full ownership to you.

The dog will come to us for a week for breeding and then back to you. The female dog will then come live with us at one week before her due date and until the puppies are weaned at about 7 to 8 weeks (but will live with you during her pregnancy). We will allow visits that are scheduled and agreed upon. Males will not need to leave you for extended periods.

You must be available for us to take the dog for breeding related testing (scheduled in advance) and breeding (not much notice here!). And for females you will have to endure a few heat cycles and keep her away from male dogs during this time.

 

What is the sacrifice for us?

I have to trust you with my breeding dog so we have to be sure we are a great match for each other.

We pay for all breeding related expenses (health testing, stud fees, whelping costs, puppy raising costs).

 

Requirements:

-You have to have great communication with me and allow me to see my dog when I deem necessary through the duration of the contract.

-Live within 4 hours of Kansas city,Mo but ideally much closer.

-Must be willing to transport dog half way to and from our home for above mentioned breeding and whelping.

-Must keep dog's routine vet care up to date (vaccinations, worming, and general health checks.)

-Fully fenced yard

-Diet approved by us, puppy must be kept on Royal Canine or quality food

-Ensure your puppy is well socialized and attend a puppy obedience class.

-Notify me immediately when your female dog comes in heat.

-Ensure your female isn’t around intact males during her cycle. For males, ensure he never breeds to a female.

-If you need to relocate outside of our 4 hour area, you must let us know as soon as possible so we can make fair arrangements, on a case by case basis and according to our written agreement.
