| "What forms of payment are accepted?" Cash= Please use cash for in-person transactions-never mail cash. PayPal= Added benefits in that a credit card can be used for payment and it can be received within minutes-which is good for those "time crunch" reservation deposits. Please be aware that the e-check option of the PayPal payment may take 3-5 business days for clearing. The other routes through PayPal are more instant however either way is accepted as long as there is enough time for payment to clear. PayPal does charge us a fee for the payments to be made, but we do NOT charge that fee to you. *LIMITED BASIS: Money Orders/Cashier's Checks/Personal Checks will be accepted up to two weeks before the puppy leaves: To allow time for clearing. So if you are making a reservation deposit or paying the balance due of a puppy, prior to the two weeks before the puppy leaves, this is acceptable. There is a $35 NSF fee if a check is returned unpaid. This fee is deducted from either your deposit or added to the purchase price. We reserve the right to terminate the sale in those cases. PLEASE NOTE AT TIME OF PICK UP : Only CASH is accepted if you choose to pay the remaining balance when you get the puppy. This is to prevent us from having the issue of a personal check not clearing or receiving an invalid money order and not knowing it until after the puppy has left. Unfortunately, in this day in age, it is sadly another precaution we must take. *Clarification: If you want to complete the final payment without using cash, you will need to do so at least 2 weeks prior to allow for clearing. |
| "How are the puppies chosen?" The reservation list is determined by "first to make deposit" gets first choice, "second" gets second choice and so on. If a previous litter did not result in enough puppies for that litters reservations, they have the option of being placed on the next comparable list. We have families make their choices in the 5th week. This is important so that those further down the list can make their selection so that all of the families can follow the progress of their own puppies through the last few weeks. The puppies personalities can be seen in the 5th week and because we have such close interaction with each puppy we really "know" them and can help you select the puppy that would fit best. |

| FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions & Pricing Information |
| "Why an adoption questionaire?" To be sure potential families understand the responsibilities & expectations of owning a pet and get matched up with the best fit for not only the puppy but also the family! We do not just want to make a "SALE"... We want to place happy,healthy puppies with families who will love them as much as we have! |
| "Is there a Health Guarantee?" All of our puppies come with Health Guarantees, not only because we KNOW they are healthy but also for your peace of mind. Rest assured we've gone to great lengths to find beautiful, genetically sound, and healthy dogs. We complete the health certifications at the appropriate times and we even obtain extra preliminary health screens and X-rays. Healthy and well cared for dogs create healthy puppies which are a direct reflection on us. We wouldn't put our reputation on any puppies who couldn't live up to the highest standards! |
| "What is the difference between the waiting list and the reservation list?" Once you're placed on the "Waiting List" we'll send you an email with breeding news. (Please keep in mind Spam blockers may occasionally interrupt our message to some emails so CHECK BACK often just to make sure) Being on this "list" doesn't mean you are committed to a puppy (or one is to you for that matter) It just means you are waiting to be contacted. If you are serious about wanting one of our puppies, please fill out the Adoption application. We will contact you once you are approved & you may then place a reservation deposit on a puppy. If you are serious, please do not hesitate as reservations do fill up quickly! |
| "What do I do to reserve a puppy?" You can reserve a puppy by placing a $300 deposit after you are approved with our simple adoption application. Once we've received your contract and deposit, and payment has cleared, you will be placed on the reservation list. We only accept up to 5 pre-birth reservations. If there are enough pups born in quantity and gender, the deposits are non-refundable. At our discretion, we may allow a transfer of a deposit to a future litter (at future litter's price) although transfer request must occur before the puppy's 2nd week of age and must then be placed on a puppy to be born within one year of transfer request date. Other than this instance, deposits are non-refundable. If we change the litter price after you've placed a deposit, the initial purchase price will remain unchanged. |
| "How many Pre-Birth Reservations are available?" We accept only 5 Pre-Birth reservations. We will accept 2 deposits for female pups and 2 for male pups before birth. We also accept a 5th Reservation of the "EITHER GENDER Reservation". Which means the family will accept either gender that has more than two of that gender.Once the pups are born, all of them will be available for reservation. The 5th reservation will be placed in the third choice spot of whichever gender was chosen following the births. ***Regarding the 5th "Either Gender" reservation: If there are more than two born of each gender, the 5th reservation may choose either gender. They will then become the 3rd choice of that gender list for that litter. The choosing of gender is expected to occur as soon after notification of birth as reasonably possible or at least by the 7th day after birth or the reservation gender will be determined by us, the breeder. This is so the remaining reservations may be filled in a timely fashion. |
| "Why are reservtion deposits required?" Reservation Deposits help us to be sure that families are committed to the purchase of this puppy, amongst other things of course. There is also a great deal of time involved with accepting applications, sometimes checking references, meeting with some families, and it is not uncommon for there to be several phone calls and/or emails exchanged, most of the time before a deposit is even placed. Adding a furry family member takes some planning and we try very hard to make sure all concerns and questions are answered with as much detail as we can provide. However, without paying a deposit we could run into situations where a buyer wanted the puppy, so we didn't find another home for the pup and then the buyer never comes back. Then we've turned away other prospective families or we could have had more time finding a family for the puppy! It is important for a puppy to bond with its new family as soon as possible, so we really like to see them make it to their new families at 8 weeks of age, although we will miss them terribly! |
| "What if there are not enough puppies born for the reservations?" In the event there are NOT enough pups for the reservations we have received, you will be refunded your deposit within 3 business days of the whelping (birth), OR you may leave your deposit with us and be placed on the next comparable reservation list. This is your choice. If the price of the next litter is different (more or less), you will be charged the new price. Remember, it is your choice if you want to be placed on the new list, you can opt a refund. If you place your deposit with the following litter, all agreements apply as with all reservation deposits. Even when a deposit has been transferred the deposit is non-refundable. |
| "Can the puppies get visits and how old are they when they can come home?" We set up two "puppy visit days" for families to come and check out the puppies. We try to plan this first "puppy visit day" for the 5th week so that those who aren't sure which puppy they want, can come and hold them and see which puppy they connect with in person. The second "puppy visit day" is usually a week or so later. Generally these are on weekends. We do realize there may be some schedule conflicts and will work with those on an individual basis so that everyone has an opportunity to come visit. We try to group the visits because the puppies are in our home, with our family, and we have to coordinate the visits around work and family obligations. For example, a litter of 10 puppies could result in 20+ visits if we did them all separately. Some families like to visit us before they decide to reserve a puppy, and we will also accommodate those instances as well. The puppies are 8 weeks old when they can join their families. **Prior to all visits** Please do not visit any dog parks, veterinarian clinics, humane societies, dog kennels, or other areas where there are a number of dogs. We need to avoid having any canine viruses or infections brought to our puppies at their young age. They will get their first vaccinations, but their immune systems are still new! Please pay close attention that you do not wear any shoes, coats, or other clothing on your visit here that you have worn to these places. **For our daughters' safety**: Please do not visit if you have a cough, cold, fever, or upper respiratory infection. We have two daughters who are disabled and use ventilators to breathe and we can not risk the exposure to them. I am sure everyone would agree, No puppy visit is worth that potential risk! |
| "How does the Spay/Neuter Refund work?" In order to promote responsible pet ownership- through being a responsible breeder -we started an incentive program in which we will refund $100 to our puppy families when they complete Spaying or Neutering of the puppy in the first year of life. The procedure must occur by the pup's first birthday and the vet paperwork must be submitted to us by the first birthday. As of the day after the first birthday, the refund will no longer be available. Once we have received the appropriate paperwork on or before to the first birthday, we will then mail the refund to the address provided to us. This information is outlined in each of the health contracts for every litter. |
| "What if we need advice or help?" We are only a phone call or email away and we are "here for you!" If you need any guidance, advice, etc., just let us know! We care about the puppies after they go home too and we want to see them thrive. We give you a packet of information with training concepts that we use and know to work well for they types of puppies we offer. We love to provide those little extras for you to enjoy those "puppy days" and to get through them too! As always, if life circumstances change and you are no longer able to provide care for a puppy you obtained from us, we will always accept the puppy back- no questions asked-and will then relocate the puppy in a home that will be a good match. We care about these puppies now and forever! |
| "What type of health screening is done?" All of our Dogs are screened for Health Clearances at the appropriate ages. Yes even our Doodles are. Health clearances that we utilize include Hips, Heart, Elbows, Patellar Luxation (knees), Thyroid, and Eyes. Official OFA testing for our Golden Retrievers can be done after 24 months of age. All of our Dogs have had their eyes CERF tested & passed. We also do preliminary screenings before 24 months of age, which can include ultrasounds, labwork, and Xrays. Doodles can not have their health clearances "OFA" listed since they are not AKC registered however we will have our breeding Doodles given the same tests and send the results for approval through a radiographic specialist, just as good! |
| "How are the breeding pairs and timings selected?" While we always have the prices listed, we don't have every style of these puppies available at all times. We breed according to the greatest interest and best pairing to meet the needs of the potential families. We would never breed any dog that had any undesirable characteristics, and yes in the past we have had a dog that had a perfect personality but didn't meet the physical clearances, and we had a golden Retriever that passed all the OFA clearances but did not meet standards in character and personality. We are not a large breeder, but we are able to customize our breedings to create a variety of styles of Golden Retrievers and Doodles, always keeping quality and health in mind. Prior to breeding we do have preliminary and/or OFA testing done. We also do allow for breeding rests for our females, They are not bred every single heat cycle. The heat cycle timing is determined by nature, but we take a lot into consideration well before each expected breeding. |
