A Guardian Home is a permanent home for one of our breeding females (and occasionally males).
Becoming a Guardian Home gives you the opportunity to have one of our puppies or young adults as a family pet while she remains in our program.
We are always looking for local families and individuals (within 4 hours of our kennel) OR someone who is willing to travel to us, who would be willing to open their homes to one of our amazing puppies or adult females in our breeding program!
We do prefer working, hunting or sport homes but it is not required.

HOW IT WORKS
You would receive a puppy or adult dog free of charge to you.
This program gives a dog their own family, as an active pet, hunting companion or sport dog!
In exchange for us retaining breeding rights and being able to use and breed this female in our program, the dog will receive free training (basic-gun dog) and your family gets a trained dog worth thousands of dollars at no cost to them!
