We are a small family run business; and all of our breeding dogs live in a home, not in a kennel. As a result, we place “potential” breeding puppies into what we call: Guardian Homes.

Our Guardian Home Program allows families to have a Nestlewood Australian Labradoodle as a family pet for a fraction of the regular pet price.

A Guardian Home family agrees to raise, train and care for one of our (potential) breeding dogs as they would for a regular pet puppy. Each potential breeder is thoroughly health tested prior to being elevated to an active breeding dog. During the dogs breeding career, Nestlewood LLC retains official “ownership” of the dog. Nestlewood pays for all breeding related expenses and health testing. The Guardian Home family is responsible for all normal pet costs like training, grooming, food and normal “pet” level healthcare.

The goal is for all of our breeding dogs to have a full and normal life with one loving family. When the dog’s breeding career is completed, the dog is spayed/neutered, as part of our expense and “ownership” is then transferred to the Guardian Home family.

If you are interested in learning more about our Guardian Home program, we would be happy to share all of the details.
