Additional Information
What is a Guardian Home?
- A Guardian Home provides the opportunity for a family to have a quality puppy to love without the usual high cost of purchasing a French Bulldog puppy.
- Our guardian dogs live in your home as your family pet and forever companion, while we retain the breeding rights for the dog.
- The litters are whelped in our home, with the mother dog staying a few days before their due date and up until 6 weeks after puppies are born.
- Dogs in our guardian homes will only be having 2 to 3 litters at most.
- Once a dog is retired from breeding, we pay for the cost of the spay/neuter and full ownership of the dog is transferred to the guardian family.
Why do we offer the Guardian Home Program?
- At C'est la vie Frenchies we are a breeding co-operative with only 3 dogs per houseold. We don't believe any dogs belong in kennels. A Guardian Home Program allows us to have our breeding dogs raised with other loving and nurturing families, rather than in kennels.
- We also believe in sharing our profits with those families that are chosen to become a part of our co-operative.
