At Elite Goldendoodles and Bernedoodles, our breeding dogs are beloved members of our family. To ensure they each receive the very best care and attention, we limit the number of dogs we personally keep at our home. That’s why we offer a unique Guardian Program – where qualified families receive a FREE puppy or dog, while we retain the breeding rights.
As a part of our Guardian Program (i.e. Guardian Home), you’ll raise and love one of our exceptional dogs as your own, and we’ll handle all breeding-related responsibilities. It’s a win-win: you gain a wonderful companion, and we can continue our mission to responsibly raise happy, healthy puppies.
