Important Points
Allergies: While doodles tend to be hypoallergenic, sometimes that does not happen. If you are an allergy sufferer, you might consider a multigen doodle from coat tested parents or an F1b doodle (an F1 doodle bred with a poodle). Please let us know if you have someone in your home with allergies. We cannot guarantee any dog to be allergy free.
Dog Size: While we do our best to breed dogs in certain size ranges, we cannot guarantee the size your puppy will become. We will give you the sizes of our dams and studs, and while your puppy should range in these sizes, there is a possibility they may end of smaller or larger.
Pick of the Litter: Mama Bates Doodles reserves the right to the first pick of every litter to keep back 1 or 2 breeding quality puppies to further our program. We will make our final choice at 7 weeks of age.
Adoption Contract: All puppies are sold on a pet contract unless otherwise stated. In particular, you will need to have your puppy spayed or neutered by 9 months of age and send proof of completion to us.
Genetic Testing: Our dogs undergo genetic testing and we will be happy to provide proof of results. We give a 2-year health guarantee against serious genetic defects. Upon request, we can provide a copy of our guarantee for review.
Home Life: Your puppy is raised in our home. This means your puppy will be well socialized with men, women, college students, children, bathing, and veterinarians. Your puppy will be exposed to normal living in both the indoors (vacuuming, kids playing, toys) and outdoors (cars, activities such as children playing and mowing in the distance).
Collar Training: Your puppy will be comfortable wearing and sleeping with a collar (a big deal for a little puppy!).
Beginning Crate Training: Probably the most common reasons for stress in a new puppy home are extended housebreaking and chewing. We start you on the road to success with initial crate training. When they go home with you, they will be familiar with their crate, comfortable entering/exiting it, and should be able to spend the night without spoiling the crate (Your puppy will go home with its own small crate)
Basics: Puppies will go home up to date on all vaccines and dewormed. Puppies are released to go their new homes when they are 8 weeks old and not before. We usually set the go home date as the date they turn 8 weeks old. For your convenience, we will care for your puppy until they are 9 weeks old, but after that we will charge a $50.00/day fee. You must have your puppy picked up by the time it is 10 weeks old.
Extras: Your puppy will go home with a lead, collar, and small crate. Plus, we provide a goody bag, which includes a week’s worth of puppy food, toy, and baby blanket.
Pricing
Upon approval, a $500.00 non-refundable reservation fee is required to hold your puppy. The reservation fee may be transferred to a future litter with written notification no later than the fourth week after the original litter is born.
Mama Bates Doodles cannot guarantee specific traits around size/gender/color/coat. We believe your first and most important criteria should be placing the right puppy with you based on temperament. Size/gender/color/coat are considerations and we will work with you to meet these, but these are not always possible. If you have an adamant desire for certain genders or looks, you must be flexible and be willing to wait for another litter, if your litter does not produce what you would like.
Goldendoodle Puppies are $2,300.00 regardless of size, color or generation.
Labradoodle Puppies are $2,500.00 regardless of size, color or generation.
