Adoption Guardianship Program

At Sebtus Kennels, we believe that the connection between people and poodles goes beyond companionship—it’s about fostering resilience and emotional well-being. Our Guardianship program is designed to improve the poodle breed in Australia by selecting dogs with exceptional social temperaments and qualities that contribute to emotional support. This includes our toy, miniature and standard poodles. ​By opening your home to one of our special dogs, you’re not only helping us continue our mission of breeding for better health and temperament, but you’re also gaining a loyal companion to support those who need it most—without the burden of an expensive purchase. This is a way for us to make a real difference for families and individuals experiencing trauma, PTSD, or other challenges.​All of our Guardianship dogs are health-tested and require loving homes where they can thrive both mentally and physically. If you believe you're the right fit for providing such a home, we'd love to hear from you.We currently have two wonderful poodles available for guardianship homes—a standard and a miniature. We prefer homes around Geelong or Bendigo but not a requirement. If you're interested, please reach out to us at sebtus1@gmail.com for more information.Let’s make a positive impact, together.
