We keep a small waiting list for upcoming litters. To get on the waiting list we ask for your best description of your ideal pup along with the broadest parameters you can be happy within. I.e. you want an apricot goldendoodle non shed ( so F1b ) or a F1 knowing that is may shed and will have more that 'cute scruffy' look but won't necessarily need haircuts like the F1b. (Basically an indeterminate hair growth is non shed - people don't shed but need haircuts ) some F1's will shed and not need or require less grooming. Do you like light cream to almost red or black or chocolate? Male or female bearing in mind a neutered male makes a wonderful pet {please see my notes on gender selection on my FAQ pages} ** the FAQ pages are still a work in progress. you can help by letting me know what your questions are as others likely have the same quandary.
We primarily concentrate on absolutely charming golden retrievers of the highest quality although we occasionally let the girls have F1's to give the world the best pups. While I wish most breeders were more conscientious about genetics and quality including temperament it seems to many just don't care or to be fair about it are not knowledgeable about how important a roll good genetics play or understand that temperament is inherited to a large extent.
Please feel free to ask questions as this will be a new family member for you for hopefully the next 14 plus years
for initial payment we ask a $200 fee to be on the waiting list and that is applied to the pups price. noting CKC for goldendoodles and AKC for goldens with pet registration. highly recommended microchip is $25 or included when opting to pay the additional for full AKC on pups being considered for breeding status. chip are required for third party transport. we do have a retired neighbor that drives pups up to 8 hours each way. farther can be negotiated.
please be sure you want to add a new family member and the whole family is on board with it. these are living loving beings. not just a present for under the tree.
note deposits for pup on the ground or waiting list for future pup are non refundable should you change your mind. we realize things happen in life and will usually work with you on rolling your deposit over to a later pup or another litter.
If you want to put a deposit on a current pup - speak with us to be sure that pup is available although I try to keep the site up to date a certain pup may have just been spoken for. I will put you as pending funds immediately for your pup so no one else can speak for that pup giving you a chance to get funds in the works. That amount may vary by age of pup and total cost beyond the basic waiting list fee. Note deposits
are non refundable should you change your mind once we have pulled a pup off the market for you. Paypal is preferred for initial deposit and since it is almost instant your pup or place on the waiting list is secured. We send you an invoice to simplify the process for you. If you don't have access to paypal ( it is very easy to set up and allows use of a credit card ) we can walk you through other options. When you pay we get these notifications pretty much immediately. I do try to keep pups available pages current.
Once you are down for a certain pup - by 4 weeks old we do require you be a half down on your pups price. we only accept post office money orders as the safest most secure money order out there since my bank puts a 3 - 4 week hold on checks ( even bank certified checks ) and any other type of money order. They told me bank of American money orders were more likely to be fraudulent than any other - scary thought... any other type of payment sent may be returned and could result in your forfeiting your pup. sorry to be that way but we've been 'burnt' on bad money orders. no one wants to mess with the postal inspectors.

If you decide you don't want the pup past the 4 weeks payment point all monies are forfeit. under certain circumstances we may negotiate / allow all or a portion to be applied to another pup at a later date.
Cash when you come for your pup for the balance please. unfortunately a few bad apples have ruined it for everyone. I still have over 5 grand in bad checks sitting in my file cabinet.
ask for a paypal invoice for initial payment or other methods of payment
