The Adoption Process - How to Get a Puppy
Our Upcoming Litter
We are so excited! Kellen is expecting her first litter. If she is anything like her mom Mabel, she will likely have 10 or more puppies. The puppies will be born in late June with a puppy go home date of late August.
We expect the colors in this litter will be black, apricot, red, and chocolate. Adult weights are expected to be 35-50 pounds.
Puppy Adoption Process
First, complete an Interest Form, and I will be in contact with you within 3 days to learn more about you, answer any questions that you might have, and determine what you are looking for in a Dream Lake Goldendoodle puppy.
You will then be invited to submit a $150 nonrefundable deposit to reserve your place in the queue for a puppy. This deposit will go towards the total cost of the puppy. Goldendoodle puppies are chosen in the order of deposits, and waiting lists are quickly forming.
Once the puppies are born, a non-refundable payment of $350 is due plus a completed Puppy Contract. During week 6, families will be invited to my home in south Seattle to interact with the puppies. The following week, the puppies will be informally observed for puppy behavior and temperament, and the data shared with the families. The puppies will then be chosen by the families in the order of their initial deposits. The remaining balance is due 2 days before puppy pick -up.
