Guardian Placement - Starling

All About Me!

Local placement only. Must be within 1 hour of Eaton, CO! What is Guardianship? Guardianship is an opportunity for you to be able to love and be loved by a health tested, gorgeous, top-quality dog, and be a part of the Centerpiece Family! Guardianship is where I would place one of my dogs in your home at no cost to you! The dog would legally be mine, but would live with you as your pet! And then once they are retired they would be yours to keep forever! If the dog is a female, she would come back to me to whelp and raise her litter (starting at her second or third heat cycle, which would be between 18month and two years, for approximately 7-9 weeks, every 6-12 months), and if it is a male, he would simply have to be available to preform services as needed. ​ Guardian's Responsibilities: - Live within 1 hour of Eaton, CO (potentially negotiable) - Be willing to work with me on transportation for breeding, and whelping. - Be willing to cover all normal costs for food, routine vet care, and grooming. - Own your home with a fenced yard, with plans to remain in the same home (or within the same driving distance) for the duration of the guardian contract. ​ For a Female: - Using washable or disposable doggy diapers for a female while in heat inside (suggested). - Be willing to refrain from visiting the guardian dog while she is at our home raising her litter. This is in the best interest of the mom and the puppies. ​ Breeder's Commitment: - To compensate the guardian up to $500 per litter for a female, and $200 for a male per female he is bred to (for up to 3 breedings per female). - To cover all reproductive related expenses. - To only breed a female up to 4 times. - To transfer ownership to you at the end of the guardianship contract!
