What is a Breeder?

Breeders are dogs that have been selected to help sustain future generations of service dogs to Guide Dogs of the Desert. We conduct extensive evaluations, both medically and behaviorally, to identify the strongest candidates.

What does a Breeder Host Do?

Breeder hosts are volunteers who open their hearts and homes to the dogs in our breeding program. Hosts offer a safe and secure setting for the breeders. Eventually, the dog will then be the hosts to keep forever.

Guide Dogs of the Desert provides hosts with information, instructions and resources to prepare them with the knowledge of what types of care a breeder dog needs. Guide Dogs of the Desert is passionate about providing the level of care necessary to help these dogs thrive.
