Guardian Home Program Information

We are currently looking for a loving guardian home for one of our beautiful Robyn’s Nest Mini Goldens. If you are an animal lover and have been searching for your next furry best friend, this could be a wonderful opportunity.

Through our Guardian Home Program, you may receive one of our dogs without the traditional purchase price. In exchange, the dog becomes part of our breeding program for a limited period of time, according to the terms of our guardian home agreement.

Robin was the puppy chosen, and it would be one of the girls pictured below.

Please carefully consider the responsibilities involved before applying. This is a contractual agreement and is taken very seriously.

  • A fenced backyard is strongly preferred.
  • Your Robyn’s Nest dog must remain intact until the transfer of ownership has taken place.

Male Guardian Home Agreement

The contract terms are different depending on whether the puppy is male or female.

For a male, the guardian home commitment is usually shorter. Males typically reach maturity around one year of age. During the contract period, we may need access to the dog for health testing, veterinary appointments, collections, and live breedings as needed.

Once those obligations have been fulfilled, the dog will be neutered and full ownership will be transferred to you. Male guardian home contracts are typically around two years.

Summary: Male guardian agreements are typically shorter in duration and involve access for testing and breeding-related needs until the contract is complete.

Female Guardian Home Agreement

For a female, the agreement is different. Female guardian dogs are typically contracted for three litters.

Most females have their first heat between 8 months and 1 year of age. We do not breed on the first heat cycle. Breeding would typically occur on the second heat, about six months later. This means her first litter would usually arrive between 14 and 17 months of age.

Because females are part of the breeding program longer, guardian families should be prepared for the dog to be away for approximately seven weeks during each litter cycle. This schedule allows our dogs to live in loving homes rather than in kennels, while also preventing long-term overbreeding.

We can handle the whelping of the litter ourselves, in which case female guardian homes are paid $1,000 per litter.

If you are interested in learning how to whelp with our guidance and supervision, there may be an opportunity to earn $500 per puppy, with the potential to earn as much as $5,000 per litter.

You are welcome to learn for one litter, both litters, or not at all. If you decide not to whelp a litter yourself, we can still handle everything and you will receive the standard $1,000 per litter.

All births take place at our home, where we make sure the puppies are stable and healthy. You are always welcome to visit your girl while she is here, and you will even get the bonus of helping love on and play with the puppies.
