Reservation Policy:
Once the breeding has taken place, and the pregnancy is confirmed with an ultrasound, we will email families currently on our interest list in groups of 10-15. Families on our existing interest list will be contacted first and given the opportunity to place the reservation fee just prior to opening the reservation list on-line. Once your payment is received, your name will then be put on the reservation list. A reservation fee to reserve a puppy is a non-refundable $300. You can pay with personal check, money order, cashier’s check, or using PayPal. Please fill out the Reservation and Information Form (see below) when submitting your deposit. Please note that if you use a credit card through PayPal then we receive payment instantly and your name will be placed on the reservation list at that time. However, if you use a check with PayPal then it will take 5-7 days for the check to clear and for us to receive payment, which will delay you being added to our reservation list.
Click here to fill out the Reservation and Information Form. Once you have filled out and signed the form, please email it back to us at .
To use PayPal, please click on the Buy Now button to the right. A 3% processing fee will be applied by PayPal to the reservation fee, totaling $310, and to the remaining balance which is included in the drop down menu under the PayPal button to the right.
Reservation Fee Determines Place on Reservation List:
Once we open the reservation list, the date we receive your reservation fee will determine your place on our reservation list. For instance, first fee gets first pick, second fee received gets second pick, regardless of male or female preference. Prior to the puppies being born, we will put your name on the list for either a male or female or make a note that you do not have a preference. However, after the puppies are born and we know how many of each gender we have, we would prefer that you choose either a male or female so that those who paid the reservation fee after yours will know exactly how many males or females will be available to choose from.
If you select a gender preference prior to the puppies being born and not enough of that gender are born into the litter, then you can either have your fee refunded or roll it over to a future litter. If you choose to roll it over to a current litter, then you will be placed after the families currently on the list.
Exceptions to the Non-Refundable Reservation Fee:
We will refund your $300 reservation fee only if you paid your fee prior to the puppies being born and you have requested a specific gender and not enough of that gender were born into the litter. A notice is required, in writing as an email, if you are requesting a refund because the preferred gender is not available. River Doodles will refund your reservation fee within 30 days of receiving the notice. However, if you place your reservation fee after the puppies are born, we will not refund the fee because you changed your mind on the gender of the puppy.
We understand life happens and situations may arise that prevents you from bringing home your puppy as planned after you paid the fee. You can apply the reservation fee to a future litter within 1 year from the date of the fee was paid. The reservation list will be in order of the date of the original reservation fee. If you choose to roll it over to a current litter, then you will be placed after the families currently on the list.
Final Payment Policy:
Final payment is required when you come to choose your puppy, which is 6 weeks from the birth date. If you are choosing your puppy after 6 weeks, then we prefer cash to avoid canceled checks. We will only accept checks for final payment up to 6 weeks. Beyond that, no personal checks will be accepted for final payment.
If you would like to use a credit card, then please use PayPal, but payment must still be received when the puppy is 6 weeks old. As stated above in Deposit Policy, PayPal charges 3% processing fee. So final payment, minus the $300 deposit, is included in the Final Payment drop down menu to the right. Please carefully choose the appropriate PayPal button for the remaining balance for either a medium/standard goldendoodle or for a mini/multigen goldendoodle.
Guarantee Policy:
Your puppy is guaranteed for 2 years against any genetic diseases. Please take your puppy to your veterinarian within three days after taking it home for an examination. If your veterinarian finds anything wrong with the puppy that is considered a pre-existing condition, then upon review with our veterinarian we will either replace the puppy, if one is available from that litter, or refund your payment. We require a copy of the veterinarians exam to be reviewed by our veterinarian as well.
Your puppy is being sold under a spay/neuter contract and is being sold as a pet only. You have 6 months from the date of birth to have your puppy spayed/neutered. We request a copy of the receipt from your veterinarian as confirmation of the spay/neuter. Failing to provide this receipt by the 7th month will void your health guarantee. Copies of parental AKC registration papers, if applicable, will be provided only upon confirmation of the spay/neuter, if requested. Legal action may result if we do not receive confirmation of the spay/neuter by the 7th month.
Additionally, since goldendoodles are technically a mixed breed, we cannot guarantee the color, size, coat type, shedding, etc especially as the dog reaches maturity.
If any unforeseen circumstances arise in the future and you can not care for your dog anymore, we will be happy to take your dog for you until either you or we find a new home for your dog. However, no exchanges or refunds will be offered.
