GUARDIAN HOMES
Guardian Home, you get a pup free of charge & you become that puppy’s forever home. AVD retains breeding rights of the puppy/dog.
For females, this starts around 14-18 month and ends once the female has whelped 2 litters for us.
Most breeders require 3-5 litters.
Male dogs are bred as needed up to age 7 years.
Guardian Homes are responsible for all typical "pet" expenses and maintenance, including grooming by a professional, dog food, pet insurance, pet-related vet visits (annual check ups / Rabies , parasite prevention revolution only), training, etc.
Females stay with their Guardian Family during pregnancy normal gestation around 9 weeks and then she is returned to us a few days before her due date to deliver (whelp) and raise her puppies. Once the puppies are weaned, which is typically when pups are around 6 weeks of age, the female can be picked up by her Guardian Family. When the dog has completed his/her breeding obligations, we release ownership of the dog to you so that he/she can return home to enjoy the wonderful life.
Guardians of females have to deal with heat cycles and keeping their girl protected from unwanted males. The Guardian Family will need to learn the signs of a heat cycle & be willing to communicate, cooperate and coordinate with us to ensure a successful breeding.
