INTERESTED IN BEING A GUARDIAN HOME?
At all American Beagles we believe that every dog deserves to have a loving, forever home. All of our dogs are part of our family and live in our home so that we know they are getting as much attention as possible. Because of this we have decided to offer a Guardian Home Program. A Guardian Home is a permanent home for one of our breeding males or females.
Becoming a Guardian Home gives you the opportunity to have one of our top notch puppies as a family pet while he or she remains in our program up to the age of 8 years. All American Beagles will retain ALL breeding rights. We reserve the right to cancel our guardianship program at any time if we deem it necessary. Once retired, he/she will be neutered/spayed at our expense.
​
BENEFITS OF BEING A GUARDIAN HOME
Being a guardian home for our breeding program has many benefits as well as responsibilities. We strive for a mutually beneficial relationship between ourselves and our guardian homes. Firstly, you will be receiving a puppy at a discounted price and will pay for the cost of shipping if needed. You will receive one of the best puppies we can produce or a puppy from another breeder. Our goal is to find the best dogs in terms of temperament, health and pedigree for our program, that in turn then goes to you as the guardian family. We pay for all health testing for the dog and offer lifetime breeder support. We want them to be the best they can be. When the dog has finished it's agreed upon service they will be spayed or neutered at no cost to you. For those of you who house a female dog you will receive $200 for each litter the dog has as a "thank you" for your patience while your beloved pet is away. If you have one of our males you will receive $50 every time he is used as a stud. So not only will your receive a discounted pet, you will also be compensated for your teamwork.
