Detailed Protocol for Establishing a Guardian Home for Dogs
Becoming a guardian home for breeding dogs with Red Ranch Dogs is a comprehensive process
that ensures the welfare of our dogs and the commitment of families who undertake this role. As
a guardian, you play an essential part in our breeding program, providing a loving home and care
for a potential breeding dog.
An integral part of this process is understanding the nature of the commitment and the
stipulations that come with the responsibilities. The following detailed protocol outlines what it
takes to become a part of our guardian home program and what you can expect as a participating
family.
Becoming a Guardian Family
We expect potential guardian families to meet specific criteria to ensure the best environment for
our dogs. Families must have a secure, spacious yard and a stable home environment. Experience
with dogs, particularly with the size and breed related to our program, is highly valued. Existing
pets should be spayed or neutered, and no invades at this time. Financially, a guardian family
should be comfortable affording the necessary care and professional services vital for the health
and well-being of our dogs.
The Screening Process
The road to guardian parenthood starts with a comprehensive vetting process. This includes a
series of interviews and home visits to assess the living conditions and suitability of the
environment for our dogs. The process also involves background checks to ensure a safe living
environment and stability for the dog.
Guardian families are expected to maintain regular contact with Red Ranch Dogs. This includes
sharing updates, training techniques, and any changes in living situations that may affect the dog.
The relationship is built on trust and transparency, vital for the success of our program.
The Contractual Agreement
Upon acceptance into the program, both parties will sign a binding agreement. The contractual
terms will cover the rights and responsibilities of the guardian home and Red Ranch Dogs. Key
points include the duration of the guardian period, breeding rights, compensation, care
obligations, and termination conditions.
Dog Care Commitments
The duties of a guardian family extend beyond day-to-day pet care. Regular health check-ups,
grooming, and exercise are just a few aspects of the care that must be provided. Training and
socializing the dog to maintain its excellent health and temperament are also expected, areas in
which we will offer support and resources.
Transporting the dog to and from Red Ranch Dogs for breeding activities is the hallmark of a
guardian family's commitment. This includes coordinating with our breeding schedule, attending
the dog's pregnancy if necessary, and promptly responding to any emergency situations.
Health Testing and Breeding
Before any breeding takes place, our dogs undergo rigorous health and genetic testing. Having a
clean bill of health is essential for the longevity of the breeding program. Females will be
brought to our facilities during their heat cycle, and males will visit for short durations as per
breeding needs.
Compensation for guardian families is provided for each litter, recognizing the invaluable role
they play in the breeding process. After the agreed-upon number of breeding cycles, the dog will
be spayed or neutered, and ownership will be transferred to the guardian family, allowing them
to enjoy the companionship at home.
Expectations Before and After Breeding
Your commitment will involve some planning and adjustment around the breeding period.
Females will be needed for a longer time during pregnancy and whelping, while males will make
occasional visits for stud services. Red Ranch Dogs will guide you through each pregnancy and
whelping stage, ensuring the smooth handling of these critical periods.
To this end, participating families should be within reasonable proximity to our facilities in
Salado, Texas. Regular communication and flexibility when it come to scheduling will be
necessary for the success of the breeding program.
In conclusion, the relationship between Red Ranch Dogs and our guardian families is one of
mutual respect, support, and a shared passion for canine care and breeding. If you are ready to
take on the responsibilities and rewards of becoming a guardian parent, we encourage you to
reach out and take the first steps in joining our program.
