Our Guardian Home program is an innovative and unique way to become the proud owner of a beautiful golden retriever while also contributing to our breeding program. This program is designed to ensure that our breeding dogs receive the best possible care and attention while still enjoying a loving home environment. Dogs thrive being in a family setting and that is our ultimate goal as well–giving our dogs a forever home from puppyhood and throughout their life.
We believe it’s is a win-win for everyone involved. You get to enjoy the companionship and love of a wonderful golden retriever at a reduced cost, while also contributing to our breeding program and helping to produce healthy, happy, and well-adjusted puppies. Our breeding dogs receive the love, attention, and care they deserve, and our breeding program benefits from the diversity and quality of the puppies produced.
Becoming a guardian home for one of our dogs is a huge commitment and a decision that should not be made lightly. Please keep in mind that while the dog is in you're care, OC Goldens still retains full AKC legal ownership of the dog until they are retired from our program and guardians have a legal obligation to follow the contract. Our dogs are very high quality and have been hand selected to benefit and improve our program further.
Becoming a guardian home is not for everyone! Please consider this commitment carefully.

About every 6 to 8 months.
A female’s heat cycle typically lasts 18 days.
At first, vaginal discharge is blood-tinged (you’ll notice a drop of blood on your floor) and the vulva is swollen.
Typically you may notice a drop of blood on the floor here or there. For tile or wood floors, this is easy to clean up. All of our females wear a reusable cloth doggie diaper with a feminine panty liner to keep clean up to a minimum. Each female is different but most keep themselves quite clean.
No. She will likely have a bloody discharge for the first week but then when the female is receptive to males, her vaginal discharge decreases in amount and is straw-colored.
A female in heat can attract male dogs by her scent so, it’s important to not let her outside alone unsupervised while she’s in heat, even if you have a fenced yard.
While mama dogs are very attached to their puppies when they’re born, and rarely leave their whelping pen, they start to wean them naturally when the puppies are about 6 weeks old. Slowly they nurse them less and less and start to become more and more interested in getting out and about for periods of time away from their puppies. By the time the puppies are 8 weeks old, the mama dog is ready to see them go! She’s happy to be back home with her family again.
Our guardian dogs love people and are happy to be here with us and also having the opportunity to play with the other dogs here. We stay familiar to them by seeing them for vet appointments, and seeing them at Pampered Paws Pet Spa. We make sure she feels as at home here as possible and has a comfortable, relaxing setting to have her puppies. Once they’re born, her puppies are all she will think about and will want to be with them constantly. So, no she won’t be sitting around feeling sad about where she’s at.
All of our females are retired at 6 years of age, so could have about 4 litters.
