Mystical Shiloh's is
a small family breeding kennel,
therefore it wouldn't be
possible to keep every single puppy that may
be a good show/breeding prospect, as each puppy
deserves to have quality time spent for exercise, training of physical &
mental growth, and for just having fun! Having too many to care
for would not be in the animal's best interest.
We at Mystical Shiloh's want all of our puppies/dogs to have a
fulfilling life with an individual or family that will always have their
Shiloh's best interests at heart. It is very important to us that
they be in an environment where they can thrive and have the best chance
for success.
On occasion, we have such a Shiloh available - our
Guardianship Program
enables us to place a puppy
or young adult (that we
feel has a show/breeding potential) into a
well-balanced home environment, sometimes at a reduced
purchase cost; each situation is different.
From time to time, we may
want to take the puppy out to shows and eventually will need to bring
the puppy to our vet for health testing.
Under this program, all
health testing related to breeding upgrade and show expenses would be
our responsibility.
Listed below are some (but not necessarily all)
additional requirements that a Guardianship home should take into
consideration:
-
Guardian
homes shall be no more than
three hours away from Mystical Shiloh's
Kennel and families should be willing to allow us
to visit their home;
-
Guardian
homes must have a fenced in yard;
-
Guardian
homes agree to be responsible for all vet bills for general heath and
costs of food;
-
Guardian
homes must be willing to keep their puppy intact and allow
Mystical Shiloh's Kennel to have exclusive
breeding rights to the dog for a pre-determined
timeframe if the dog passes their
health testing;
-
Guardian
homes agree to spay/neuter the dog once breeding obligations
have been met or if the dog does not pass
health testing;
-
Guardian
homes agree to co-own the dog with Mystical Shiloh's
Kennel;
-
Guardian homes agree to
Mystical Shiloh's kennel having authorization to full disclosure with
your veterinarian regarding the puppy;
-
Guardian
homes agree to keep a pet health insurance policy on the puppy;
-
Guardian homes agree to
socialize their puppy with people of all ages as well as with other
animals;
-
Guardian
homes agree to take the puppy to Puppy Kindergarten
classes, or the young adult dog to Beginner Obedience
classes.
