Selah Mountain Dogs

1. Goldendoodle female puppy from Bailey and Parker’s litter, ready to go home June 21st. These mini/medium Goldendoodles will have soft, wavy, low-shedding coats. Guardian must be open to any of the two girls, as we’ll choose the best fit for our program. Right now we are choosing between Independce and Phoenix 

2. We plan to keep back one pup from most of our summer/fall 2025 litters. If you are interested in being a guaridan home for one of our upcoming litters, please reach out!

Guardian Home Program Information 

At Selah Mountain Dogs, we’re proud to be an in-home breeding program. None of our dogs live in kennels or outdoor enclosures—they’re beloved members of a family, just as all dogs should be. To ensure every one of our dogs receives the individual love and attention they deserve, we’ve established a Guardian Home Program.

Our Guardian Program allows us to responsibly grow our breeding lines while giving each dog a full and happy life in a forever home. While we’d love to keep them all ourselves (more dogs to cuddle!), we know that the best thing for our dogs is to live in homes where they are the center of attention.

Guardian families receive financial compensation for each litter their dog produces, helping offset the daily costs of care. Selah Mountain Dogs covers all breeding-related expenses, including health testing (OFA & genetic screenings), reproductive care, and spay/neuter procedures once the dog retires. Guardian families are responsible for routine care, such as food, grooming, training, vaccinations, and non-breeding-related veterinary visits. Once a dog retires and is spayed or neutered, full ownership is transferred to the guardian family.

We’re passionate about raising exceptional dogs—and that starts with giving them exceptional lives. If you’d like to learn more about becoming a Guardian Home, please reach out!
