Guardian Dogs available....

Jerome is a Toy Poodle, he weighs 7 lbs, very outgoing, loves children, we are looking for a guardian home in the Herscher, IL. or Limestone, IL. area. He would do best in a family with older children or adults only, as younger ones tend to drop dogs.  He will have to wear a male belt, so he doesn't mark in the house. He is housebroken otherwise.

Rita Gaus will pay for all breeding related expenses. If Rita Gaus decides to have the dog health tested, it will be at her expense. Guardian will notify Rita Gaus immediately if the dog gets sick or comes into season. Routine vet visits are the responsibility of the Guardian.




If the dog does not qualify to be a breeding dog or retires from breeding, such dog will be spayed or neutered and total ownership will then go to the Guardian. Rita Gaus will assume cost of spay/neuter, if dog is returned to her to have the surgery done. No more expenses will be paid by Rita Gaus from that point forward.

If the Guardian of a female dog wishes to have a puppy from this dog, he/she may have one puppy from one litter only. The puppy will have to either be spayed or neutered. If Guardian has multiple Guardian dogs, one puppy will be given from each guardian dog. After giving one puppy, Guardian will receive $500 for each litter the dog whelps, providing there are 3 or more puppies. If Guardian decides to return the Guardian dog and they already received a puppy, Guardian will have to pay full price for the puppy, as they didn't fulfill the contract. If the contract is breached by Guardian in any way, the dog will have to be returned to Rita Gaus. Guardian dogs will only be placed with homeowners and non smoking families.
