What an amazing way to add to your family and experience the wonderful companionship of the Australian Labradoodle! We are looking for guardian families who will commit to at minimum taking basic obedience courses.

Since we do not believe in kenneling our dogs and we know this breed can may be difficult to acquire for some families who would really benefit from having a Patriot's Day Doodle, we have implemented the Guardian Home Program. This ensures that all of our future breeding dogs will be raised in a loving home environment ensuring the temperament and sweet nature of the Australian Labradoodle. Your puppy will be “pick of the litter” chosen by us to be a breeding dog and we will retain breeding rights for the life of the Guardian Home Contract.
Our breeding dogs live in our home and we would expect the same with a guardian home.
A guardian family must be willing and able to loan the dog back to us for health testing, breeding, whelping and raising puppies. After the dog is finished with their breeding career, they will be spayed/neutered at breeder’s expense and the ownership of the dog transferred to the guardian home family. Any costs relating to health testing and breeding will be the responsibility of the breeder. Normal yearly wellness care is the responsibility of the guardian home. As a breeding dog, the registered name will be chosen by us and the dog will legally be owned by Patriot's Day Doodles until completion of breeding contract.
Stud Guardians must be within 30 min of Ottawa, IL.
Dam Guardian must realize that a female will produce one to four litters in our program depending on a variety of factors.
