Becoming part of DeeCor Goldendoodles Guardian Program
​
Occasionally we are looking for families to be part of our guardian program. A guardian home
is not a foster home. It is a forever home for one of our carefully selected puppies that are prospective future parents for us.
As a small breeder, it is important to us that each one of our Goldendoodles has a lifetime,
forever home. Having Guardian homes helps us reduce that chances of having to rehome one
of our dogs when they have retired.
The benefits of becoming a guardian home-
​
*Getting our pick of the litter puppy at no cost, which will be fully health (paid for by us).
*We pay for the spay or neuter once the breeding contract has ended and then
full ownership is transferred over to you.
*Our females contract is usually 3 litters and for males, 6 years.
*Our guardian families get to share in the joy and excitement of helping to socialize
our puppies during their visits for their waiting families!
​*We offer boarding for our girls (when we are available) at no charge for up to 3 days. If longer than
3 days there is a minimal charge.
*We offer grooming for our girls at a reduced rate.
*Sorry boys, you just get too excited for extended visits with our girls, and the excitement from your
visit can make you extra wiggly so as much as we'd like to,we unfortunately we can't offer board or
groom for our boys.
​
Our guardian homes are very carefully chosen.
