Please scroll down for more information...
We look forward to providing you with a wonderful new family member! Be sure to check our website often for updates! With families often waiting several months for their new companion to be born, I feel blessed to be able to provide loyal puppies for loyal people!
WINTER 2022/2023 WAITLIST: if your timing is flexible I'm happy to add you to my Waitlist for winter pups. When a mama comes into heat and is bred I will update you with the details and if you want to commit to that litter you can let me know at that time. My guess is we might have pups available for new homes around Christmas. Be sure to watch here for updates.
HOW TO RESERVE YOUR PUPPY....
Thanks Lifesong-Photography.com for the beautiful photo!
Our Puppies Cost: $4000
This Price Includes: Healthy puppy vet exam, first round puppy vaccines, deworming, microchip ID, two year-long genetic health guarantee, puppy collar, leash, toy, beginner crate training (we lose sleep so you don't have to!), free delivery as a group to the town of North Bend or Wenatchee, and a lifetime of breeder support.
Additional Costs Include: WA sales tax of $356 if picking up in North Bend. Other travel fees such as an optional health certificate if you are driving through Canada customs for example.
For Families Living in Other States: Please plan to meet me on puppy delivery day in the town of North Bend (east of Seattle) or in Wenatchee, when I deliver the litter. I no longer ship puppies with the airline cargo services. You need to be aware I am coming from rural north central Washington and we drive 250 miles over two mountain passes in winter weather. If you are flying into SeaTac you need to make sure your travel schedule will accommodate potential weather and traffic delays on my end. Both of these are situations that I have no control over so you will need to plan accordingly. Please be aware you will be paying WA sales tax and if you are crossing the border to Canada you will be required to pay GST.
The next step is to fill out our online Puppy Application. I will contact you to acknowledge I have received your application, then I will ask you to send a $500 non-refundable reservation fee to be added to my litter reservation list. The fee is applied toward the final purchase price due when puppy is seven weeks old.
Australian Labradoodle Reservation Fee $500 Fee applied to final price.
What Happens Once Your Puppy is Born....
I will contact you once your puppy has been born and we will post their first photos after they have opened their eyes by three weeks old. You will be able to choose your favorite puppiesby the time they turn six weeks old and we will thoroughly discuss your specific desires and options.
When the puppies are around six weeks old you will begin to see their unique looks and personalities and you are welcome to visit them at my home. If your schedule does not allow a weekend visit, no worries! I will do my best to highlight the puppies with photos on our website so you can watch them grow.
By seven weeks old I will help you determine which puppy will be the best fit for your family based on it's temperament, your choices, and my experience. I have found this to be the best process to ensure perfect partners for lifelong companions. At this time final payment is due. The puppies will also go to the veterinarian at this time, and I will also choose any puppies I plan to keep for our breeding program.
At eight to nine weeks old your puppy will be ready to join your family!
Regarding bringing puppy home.. We will gladly deliver your puppy to you near the Seattle area free of charge when we bring them over as a group at 8 weeks of age! We typically bring the puppies to the town of North Bend off I-90 unless we have a small litter then I ask you to meet me in Wenatchee. If you live in another state we can discuss your travel options. You are also welcome to pick up your puppy at my home near Winthrop if that is more convenient for you.
About Our Guardian Program and Breeders for Sale....

Please be aware we have the option to keep puppies for our breeding program or to make them available to other approved breeding programs. These puppies will be selected by the time they are seven weeks old. If you are a breeder feel free to view our Breeders for Sale.
Puppies arrive in Seattle on Private Air Charter!
We had so much fun delivering Nutmeg's litter to their new families when we chartered a private plane from Winthrop to fly to Boeing Field in Seattle. We felt like celebrities when we landed at the Boeing private jet charter facility Clay Lacy, with Catlin Flying Service. The best part was seeing all the kids pressed against the lobby windows eagerly waiting our arrival! The puppies didn't seem to mind the noise of nearby jet engines as they romped around on the tarmac with their new families. Let's see.. 12 hours roundtrip by car versus 3 hours by plane.. I think we're on to something! For more photos see the Community Spotlight section on our Showcase page.
