Battlefield's Sip Sip Hooray, Rose
Rose is available to the right show, performance, or family home.
-
She is very social with people and likes riding in the car.
-
She is fully house broke and crate trained
-
I prefer she have a playmate, but can be an only dog. She was a singleton, so she is used to be on her own with people. She adores interaction.
-
She can leave any time, but currently getting her ready to show.

A guardian home is when you have a "pick of the litter puppy" saved for show or to be used in the breeding program for a fraction of the price. The guardian home helps us preserve the progeny of our lines that we developed. This puppy or adult dog is part of your family and lives in your home, while the breeding rights are retained by us for a short period to preserve the best genetics for our small breeding program. Once this dog has completed its breeding career, they will be spayed or neutered. This dog will always remain a member of your family. This program allows for our dogs to live a normal, happy life in families where they get individual attention while allowing use to continue to develop our breeding progam. What is the benefit? You get the best we can offer! These puppies and dogs are selected by evaluation for form and function which is outlined in our breed standard. The guardian is responsible for routine care and wellness. The guardian is responsible for any maintenance or needed medical care as it would be with any other pet owner. Do note, the guardian family is not responsible for any expenses related to breeding. Those are our responsibility. To be considered a guardian home, you need to live locally. We prefer the puppy live no more than 1-2 hours from our house. You also must have a fully enclosed yard, own your own home or lease with permission to have a dog, have a schedule that gives you time to be with the dog, and the willingness to be separated for short periods from the dog. You also need to be flexible with the sex of the dog. Female puppies and dogs placed in guardian homes, need to keep in good contact with us. When the female dog goes into heat after full testing and after 2 years of age, you are required to contact us immediately. At this time, we will need access to her for any necessary breeding related appointments. Once she has been bred, she will remain with you until one or two weeks before her due date and will come home once puppies are fully weaned which is five to six weeks after whelp date. Most of our females will have 1 - 3 litters. However, each dog is individually assessed before determining how many litters she will have. The health and well being of our breeding dogs is our priority. If we decide not to breed the puppy placed with you, you will receive written permission to spay or neuter your companion. If you spay or neuter a guardian home dog prior to our permission to do so, you will need to pay the full price for the dog at that time as if you were buying a puppy. If you are interested in being part of the guardian home program, please let me know.

upcoming & current litters
MINIATURE AMERICAN SHEPHERD LITTER
Litter 1: Addie x Sara due July 6
Litter 2: Nick x Kohl due July 13
Litter 3: (possible) ? x Candy
Retired Mother Program
Both girls require a fenced yard. Sara is more active than Kohl. Kohl likes eating toys. Both are very affectionate and loyal. It takes them a little bit of time to warm up, but both will be your best friend. These girls are not to go to dog parks as they are used to the "family" they have. They are very typical mini and can do a job with no problem at all. I prefer they be the only dog or one of two. I want them to have individual attention and attachment. If you are interested, complete the application. I do have lots of inquiries for these girls, but have turned down many, because my concern for lack of attention, no fence, apartment dwellers, or wanting to breed them.
Both are still young and full of life.
