What is a Guardian Family Program?

Our Guardian Family Program allows our breeding dogs to be raised in a loving home environment with families that love them.  It’s important to us that our dogs are raised in a loving home with love, socialization, and attention. The breeding dog will participate in our breeding program for a small portion of their life. When the contract is finished, Crimson Desert Doodles will pay $150 toward the spay/neuter and transfer full ownership of the dog to the guardian family.  As a guardian family, you get the very best dog that Crimson Desert Doodles has to offer.

Guardian Family Requirements

• You must live within one hour driving distance of St George, Utah so you can transport the dog to us for health testing, breeding, and whelping. Guardian cannot move away from the local area during the length of the guardian family contract.

If you guardian a female dog she will come to my home for breeding, then stay with her guardian family while pregnant. She will then stay with the breeder for 7 weeks when she whelps and cares for her puppies. Guardian families are encouraged to visit during the 7 weeks!
