When you “foster to own” you get all of the benefits of owning an amazing Emotional Support Animal – without the upfront costs of purchasing a puppy or potty trained adult dog!

It’s so easy!

Your family will enjoy and love your new puppy or adult dog!  

And as your puppy grows older, if you selected a female dog you DO NOT need to deliver or raise puppies! After 4 litters the female is spayed and becomes your dog forever. (see more in the FAQs below)

By participating in the “foster to own” program, you become part of our breeding family. This helps spread the love of Emotional Support Animals to more people. 

Foster to Own Program

Every dog in our program deserves a typical home life with a family that adores them. In order to accomplish this in our breeding program we offer the Foster to Own program. 

Here is how it works:

1.  Go through the application process
2.  Work with Heather to select the right dog for your situation and desires
3.  Foster your dog
4.  When your dog is done in the breeding program we pay for the spay/neuter and the dog is yours!

Own Your Home

To avoid issues with landlords, foster homes must own their own home

Fenced Backyard

Fenced backyards are a must for the safety of the dogs 

No Smoking

For the health of the puppies we require all homes to be non-smoking

Love Your Puppy

We want all of our dogs to be loved as though they were your own 

1 Hour from Us

Kind & Patient

Working with pets and people takes kindness and patience 

Foster to Own not the right fit?

Don’t worry- we will help you find the right one! Fill out the Mini Golden application to chat about finding your fur baby.

We have Golden Retrievers, Spaniels and Poodles that are used in our breeding program as well as mixes of these breeds. You will get a puppy or dog that is the pick of the litter. When we breed a dog we do genetic health testing, OFA health testing, as well as personality testing, we want our parent dogs to be the best possible so their pups can also be the best possible!

You will not need to deliver and raise the puppies. I will take the pregnant dog about 1 week before the due date. I will take care of the delivery and raising the puppies until they are weaned, at which time your foster dog will return to you.

We take females when they are in heat for a few days to breed them. Once they are ready to deliver their pups, they will be gone for about 8 weeks, until the puppies are weaned.

We typically breed our healthy females on their second and third heat cycles, skip the fourth, and breed again on the fifth and sixth heat cycles. All of this depends on the health of the dog, how she responds to pregnancy, motherhood and postpartum recovery.

You are required to pay for all vet visits, food, toys, and other dog accessories. Any expense that an owner typically pays for, you will be required to cover.

When your dog is done in the breeding program we pay for the spay/neuter and the dog is yours!

We provide a quarterly stipend toward a specific dog food which we require for all of our Foster Dogs. Additionally, you will receive the dog as compensation after they are done in the breeding program.

We frequently have new dogs that become available and are ready to go to a Guardian Home! Feel free to reach out to discuss what dogs we have that could be the perfect fit for you!
