We do not have kennels here. We believe that all dogs deserve to live a life as someone’s beloved family member, and not all of our breeding dogs fit on our laps! For this reason we have implemented the "Guardian Home Program".

​

A Guardian Home is a family that gets a puppy from us that will hopefully be part of our breeding program and has a forever home with you. This is an exciting and unique opportunity for selected local families to be a part of our family. It allows us to expand our program without our dogs living in kennels.  

A Guardian Home is a family that takes a “pick of the litter” puppy that is personally chosen for you by us. This puppy/dog will be your forever dog while still participating in our breeding program. The Guardian Home agrees to raise, train, love and care for the puppy as their own while Sunrise retains ownership and breeding rights for a pre-agreed amount of time. This way all of our dogs get the love they deserve in your forever home.



Females:

Cost: $500.

 

-Live within 2 hours of Ocala, FL.

-Full Physical Fenced Yard

 

A potential female puppy will need to return to our facility for health testing when she turns 6 months old. After evaluation of those results we then decide if she will be entered into our program. Once in our program she will deliver up to 4 litters at Sunrise Australian Labradoodles approximately two times per year.  Mostly your responsibility will be transporting her to us.  Once pregnant she will remain with you throughout her pregnancy and come back to us about one week before her delivery and stay until the puppies are weaned. After her breeding career is over she will be spayed at our expense and live forever with you.

 

Males:

Cost: $500.

​

-Live within 1 hour of Ocala, FL.

A potential male puppy will need to return to our facility for health testing when he turns about 6 months old. After evaluation of those results we then decide if he will be entered into our program. You will be responsible for transporting him to our facility each time. Once we have determined we have used him to the fullest potential for our breeding program or he reaches the age of 7, he will be neutered at our expense and retired with you forever.
