How do I adopt one of your puppies?
- The first thing done in adopting one of our puppies is to explore our site and to make sure you have read over all the important information such as the contract, our section on About Goldendoodles and Pricing.
- Next, you will fill out an adoption form so we can better decide if a doodle is the best fit for you and your family and what puppy would work best in your home. After you fill out the adoption form we will be in contact with you.
Can I pick my own puppy?
- We encourage people to come and visit with the puppies once they are an appropriate age. We will show you the puppies that best fit your description from the adoption form and you get to pick your puppy.
- Priority is given to those on the waitlist, however, if you are on the waitlist you must pick your puppy by the age of 3 wks as we can not hold up the sale of the puppies if there are others interested. We will work with you and send plenty of pictures to help you decide. Where distance is a concern we will help you pick your puppy from the information provided on the adoption form.
What is included in the purchase price?
- Our F2 Golden Doodles are priced at $1,000. This price includes age appropriate shots for the puppy, a vet inspection, regular dewormings, a 24 month written guarantee and a sample of food. You will be given the health record as well as a Bill of Sale.
What type of food are you feeding the puppy?
- We feed our puppies Nutro Natural Puppy Food. We will supply you with a sample of food and encourage you to contine with this brand of food. We feed our puppies 3 times a day and ask that you continue to do so until they are at least 12 weeks old then you can switch to twice a day.
Do your puppies shed?
- It is impossible for us to 100% guarantee that our puppies won't shed. Any doodle breeder that does is not being truthful. It is from our experience that doodle pups have little to no shedding but there is always that possibility they could shed.
How big will the puppies get?
- Snickers is 65lbs and Barkley is 35lbs. I'm guessing these babies will grow up to be a max of 55lbs or so. They should be nice mid-sized dogs. However, Since this is a hybrid and not a "standardized breed" it is important to note that specific sizes cannot be guaranteed for grown dog. Buyers must be willing to accept a puppy with the grown weight and heights being only estimates, as there is the possibility for puppies to be more or less than the estimated weight and height ranges above.
What should I bring to pick up my puppy?
- We ask that you bring a collar and a leash with you when you pick up your puppy whether it be from our home or the airport. Also, if the trip is going to be more than an hour, it is a good idea to bring some water. Also a plastic bag and paper towels just in case the puppy gets car sick or needs to make a potty stop.
When can I pick up my puppy?
- When they are 7-8 weeks old. This will be approximately the week of Thanksgiving.
When is the puppies next vet appointment?
- In our contract we ask that you take your puppy to the vet within 72hrs of purchase. If the vet finds anything seriously wrong with the puppy you may bring it back (at the buyers expense) and we will replace the puppy or pay for the vet cost if you wish to keep it. If you do not take the puppy to the vet iwhtin 72hrs please note that our contract will then become null and void.
- The puppy will then go to the vet again around 9wks (no later than 10 wks) of age for it's second set of shots.
- The puppy will go for it's final visit no later than 14 wks of age.
