Your Questions, Answered!

 The adoption cost for a mini Goldendoodle is $2,250. This price reflects our commitment to ensuring that our puppies are placed with loving, responsible families who understand the long-term commitment involved in raising a dog. We view our puppies as a big investment in both time and care, and the adoption fee helps us ensure that the families who adopt are serious about providing a forever home. It also contributes to the health, socialization, and well-being of the puppies, ensuring they have the best start in life. 

The average size of one of our mini Goldendoodles is 20-35 lbs, depending on the parents and gender of the puppy.  Read more on the specifics of  the breed here.

Your puppy can typically go home at 8 weeks, pending a successful vet check and approval from Dr. Lanz.

We strive to make the adoption process as smooth as possible. If you would like to pick-up your puppy, we will set a date and time for you to do so. If you would like your puppy delivered, we offer delivery within three hours of Creston, OH, for no additional charge. For locations beyond this range, delivery is available for an additional fee—please contact us for a quote. In some cases, such as multiple deposits from the New York City area, we may offer complimentary delivery to that region. All deliveries are hand-delivered, either by car or flight; we do not ship puppies unaccompanied. Reach out to discuss your specific needs! 

You can choose from a 2-week or 4-week training program for an additional cost. These programs are designed to give your puppy foundational skills and enhance their development before going home.   Click here for more information on our training programs.

Due to high demand, most families will need to join our waitlist before selecting a puppy. To reserve your spot, please complete an application (see "Adoption Application" section of website) and submit a $300 deposit.  Please reach out for more information on deposit.  Your deposit secures your place on the wait list. Once we have a litter of puppies that is 4-5 weeks old, you will be contacted to set up a time to pick out your puppy.  Picks are made in the order deposits are received—first deposit gets first pick, second deposit gets second pick, and so on.  You come to our house for puppy selection day to hand pick your puppy.  If a home visit isn't possible, then you will select via FaceTime/video/pictures.

All our puppies are thoroughly examined by Dr. Jeff Lanz, DVM, of Turkeyfoot Pet Center in Green, Ohio. Each mini doodle comes with a health certificate, health record, up-to-date vaccinations, and deworming. Flea and tick prevention is also administered at their initial vet visit. You’ll need to schedule a follow-up vet check with your own vet approximately three weeks after Dr. Lanz provides their first distemper shot, typically given around 6 weeks of age.
