Guardian Program
What is a guardian home?
We are seeking a Guardian home for a pure breed Bernese mountain dog puppy (Lola & Eddies litter) to be placed in middle of August.
A guardian home is when a loving family takes in a pregnant dog, like your Bernese Mountain Dog expecting Bernedoodle puppies, to care for her as their own pet while the breeder keeps ownership and manages her breeding. The family provides a happy home, feeding, grooming, and loving the dog, and ensures she gets to vet visits, especially during pregnancy. The breeder covers costs like vet bills and handles the puppies’ birth and placement. The dog might stay with the family during early pregnancy but could return to the breeder to have her puppies. After the puppies are weaned, the dog goes back to the family until she retires from breeding, when she often becomes their permanent pet. It’s a way for the dog to live in a cozy home, the family to enjoy a special dog for free, and the breeder to continue their program responsibly.
Guardian program requirements:
Thank you for your interest in becoming a guardian home for our pregnant Bernese Mountain Dog, who is expecting Bernedoodle puppies, or potentially one of her puppies in the future. • Must live within a 75-mile radius of Daytona Beach, FL. This allows for easy coordination of veterinary visits, breeder check-ins, and transport for whelping or breeding activities. You must be willing to travel to us or accommodate our visits as needed.
General Requirements
1. Loving and Stable Home:
• Provide a safe, nurturing environment where our Bernese Mountain Dog is treated as a family member.
• Commit to her lifelong care, including during pregnancy, and potentially after retirement (when she may become your spayed pet).
• Ensure a calm, spacious home suitable for a large breed
2. Experience and Availability:
• Have experience with dogs, preferably large breeds or those with grooming needs (e.g., Bernese or Poodles). First-time owners may be considered if highly committed and willing to learn.
• At least one adult must be available to care for the dog, with a schedule allowing for daily exercise, feeding, and attention. The dog should not be alone for more than 6-8 hours daily.
• Be prepared to monitor the dog’s health during pregnancy (e.g., appetite, energy) and report changes to us promptly.
3. Physical Environment:
• Own or rent a home with a fully fenced yard (at least 4-6 feet high) to ensure the dog’s safety and exercise needs.
Provide daily exercise (e.g., walks, playtime) suitable for a pregnant Bernese, avoiding overexertion.
Guardian program responsibility:
Commitment to Breeding Program:
• Attend veterinary appointments (costs covered by us) and administer any medications or supplements as directed.
• Allow the dog to return to us for whelping (around day 50-63 of pregnancy) and puppy rearing (8-12 weeks)
• Understand that we retain full ownership and control all breeding decisions, including the current Bernedoodle litter and any future litters.
• Agree to a contract outlining your role, our financial responsibilities (e.g., vet bills, breeding costs), and the dog’s retirement plan (typically transferring ownership to you after 2-4 litters or age 5-7, health permitting).
• Be comfortable with periodic breeder visits or check-ins to ensure the dog’s well-being.
• Return the dog to us if you can no longer fulfill guardian duties.
• Commit to ethical pet ownership, including not breeding the dog independently or placing puppies without our approval.
• Agree to spay the dog at retirement (cost covered by us) if she remains with you.
