-Important Info-
-PAYMENTS-
​
1. Deposit: The waitlist deposit is $150. The deposit will have to be paid through Venmo to reserve your waitlist spot & puppy. For Venmo, you will send a friend request & then I will send the payment request. A puppy is still available to anyone until a deposit is received.
2. The Deposit is non-refundable. If after you pay the deposit, you don't want the puppy anymore or no longer want to be on that specific waitlist, you can move the deposit toward a future litter that's planned within 2 years of the original litter.
3. Final Payment: The final payment must be paid through Venmo at least 5  business days before pick up.
​
4. The Final Payment is only refundable if: At least 2 hours before the pickup time(or at least 2 hours before whatever time I have to leave home, if you're doing the valet package), you let me know you can't take them anymore for whatever reason, or if after bringing your puppy home, you can't keep them for whatever reason, then I will refund the purchase price of the puppy, minus the deposit.
​
5. If the pickup day/time needs to be changed due to an emergency, let me know at least  2 hours before the pickup time(or at least 2 hours before whatever time I have to leave home, if you're doing the valet package) and I'll be happy to change the pickup day/time. Boarding fee may apply.

-I will NEVER do this to just anybody!! I've had some people be EXTREMELY
DIFFICULT, RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, HOSTILE, etc... I just need to weed those people out:)
5. We do not offer, nor do we allow a flight nanny, transportation, etc... Either you have to pick up your puppy yourself or a close friend/family member. If you have a close friend/family member pick up your puppy then you will need to agree to a contract and I will send the documents to you, you will have to sign them and send me individual photos. When the close friend/family member picks up the puppy they will need to sign the "close friend/family member pickup" contract and I will take photos of all the documents and the papers will be sent home with the close friend/family member.
-Grooming-
​
Disclaimer!! I am NOT a dog groomer. This is just what I do with my dogs!
​
Poodles and Doodles require a lot of brushing, baths, and professional grooming. Especially if you're keeping their coat longer or they will be getting muddy or wet frequently.
​
-At Home-
Your pup will need to their first grooming appointment at 4-6 months old, whenever they're full vaccinated. Until they're ready to get groomed, you can make the process easier by brushing out your pup 1-2 times a week.
I recommend focusing on their head, ears, face, feet, backside area, and tail.
Giving them a bath once a week or every other week and blowdrying them after will also help.
If you have clippers it's a great idea to remove the blade and run it over their whole body so they get used to the feeling.
​
Tip: Poodles and Doodles mat the easiest from their feet up to their hips and shoulders, belly, and the chest up to their ears so those areas should be the main focus while brushing them out.
​
-At The Groomers-
Before you take your pup to the groomers, I recommend giving them a really good bath and brushing them out. It saves your groomer a lot of time and saves you some money.
​
Depending on your pups coat length, type, and your lifestyle, your pup will have to get professionally groomed frequently. Consult your groomer on what they think is best for your pup.
​
Most grooming visits for a bath, brushing, ears cleaned, and nail trim, will be at least $30 for a medium sized dog. A bath & cut will be at least $60. If your pup has matting it's at least $75. Additional services are at least $10-$40, depending on what it is.
-Pick Up Documents-
They are signed at pick up & paying the deposit automatically agrees to the documents & important info. Your info is required before/when the final payment is sent.
