GUARDIAN/Partner/Co-own HOMES:
We will be looking for a few guardian homes in some 2023 litters coming up (especially males)... This is so much better for the dog and our breed - They get to be in a loving home instead of someone's KENNEL... But what does it mean? 1) The male will be kept INTACT (not neutered) until 2 years old to see how it turns out. If it turns out with the quality to improve the breed, we will use it for breeding. We are flexible though if it becomes a problem we will work with you 2) You will get the BEST of the BEST puppies - the full package - personality, temperament, structure, etc. 3) You may earn as much or more than the original cost of your puppy back while it is bred. 4) Where does the puppy live? It lives with YOU, you treat it as your pet: train, feed and love it. It is YOUR puppy, your dog. We co-own on paper until the decision is made at 18 months if it will be bred or until the dog is spayed/neutered and the contract is fulfilled. You get compensation for breeding. If we show the dog (with your permission) we pay expenses and stay with local shows so you don't have to go without your dog for long.
Why do we do this? We will always stay small here at the ranch so we can give alot of attention to those that live with us, but in order to better our program and the Miniature American breed we need dogs to breed to. That is where you come in - you help us while we help you. You become as much a part of our family and team as you like - or as little.
We can provide many references if desired!
***There is ONLY a 50% chance we will breed your male/female puppy in the future, but having the option is pawesome!***
Show/Breed Homes
We may be letting special show puppies go to select/approved breeding (show/breed/performance) homes in 2023.
If you are interested in a pup from our program please reach out to us.

Why we love PUPPY CULTURE (click link below) here at 74 Ranch! Puppy Culture helps our puppies grow into better behaved and balanced puppies. Things we do with our puppies before they leave: put them on a grooming table many times, brush them, look at their teeth, trim their nails, etc. They are handled every day and taught to sit to get treats, sit to get petted and sit before they go in and out of crates/pens. They are exposed to at least 7 different things under foot by 7 weeks old (rocks, dirt, grass, cement, wood, carpet, linoleum, tile, weeds, etc) They are also exposed to wobble boards, stairs, singing/dancing toys, tunnels, puppy dog walk, many different sounds and more. We work with each puppy individually every day and they go for car rides every few days, visiting neighbors and meeting their dogs and cats. They are also crate trained and started on leash training! They get at least 3 baths before leaving home and are dried with a dryer as well as trimmed and groomed.
We highly recommend you follow along with what we are doing through Puppy Culture (click below) and continue on past the time you take a puppy home! It is very educational and advantageous for the puppy's futures!
We also highly recommend this book: Perfect Puppy in 7 Days! We have read it several times over and ours is looking pretty worn!!! There are also other good puppy raising books at DogWise!
This is also a great program for new puppy buyers!
