Your dogs, living in other people's homes.
The families housing your sires and dams off-site — with a signed guardian contract and a breeding record that is still yours.
A dog in a guardian home is still your dog
Her cycles, her litters, her health record and her genetics stay in your programme. A guardian placement changes where she sleeps, not whose breeding record she is on.
The contract is signed, not assumed
Send the guardian agreement for signature the same way you send a sale contract. A guardian arrangement running on a conversation from two years ago is the one that goes wrong.
The family gets told what they need
A guardian home caring for a dam is told when her heat is expected, because they are the ones who will see it first.
Placed, papered, and still in your programme.
The arrangement you already have, written down in a form that survives a disagreement.

Common questions
Is a dam in a guardian home still part of my programme?
Completely. Her cycles, litters, health record and genetics stay on your records — a guardian placement changes where she sleeps, not whose breeding record she is on.
Is there a contract?
Yes, sent for signature the same way a sale contract is and filed against the dog. A guardian arrangement running on a conversation from two years ago is the one that goes wrong.
Does the family get told when she is due in heat?
Yes. The heat prediction goes to the guardian household as well as to you, because they are the ones who will see it start.
Can guardians house puppies too, not just adults?
Yes — the families you track here are the ones housing any of your dogs off-site, whichever stage they are at.
Run guardian homes on paper, not goodwill.
Signed contracts, tracked families, and breeding records that stay yours.
