Breeder of the Authentic Australian Labradoodle ~ A pure breed in development!
To get on our Reserve list and to hold a puppy, we require a completed puppy application form first and formost. Once approved,a $500. non-refundable Reservation List Fee, along with a signed puppy contract becomes due to fully reserve your placement.
Then we offer the following payment plan for the balance;
$500. due at 2 weeks old. $500. at 5 weeks old, & the balance of $1150. due when picking up puppy.
Cost does not include delivery. Please contact us for info on transportation costs if delivery is needed.
Until the reservation lists open, we have a master waiting list.
To be placed on our "Master Waiting List"
We require 20% of your Reservation fee - $100.00 (non-refundable) at time of signing up.
If you are willing to wait for a planned litter with us, then we will gladly add you to our Master waiting list towards the next planned litter's Reservation List to open on the size of pup you are looking for.
Why go on a reservation list for a future puppy?
Well, this can give you a higher placement on a reserve list. To then be higher up on the list when the time comes for selecting your puppy. Rather than holding out and waiting to see who remains after those who've reserved take their picks.(and hoping there is still a perfect match for you)
Upon receipt of a completed and approved application form, we will send you the paperwork to complete and return along with this 20% fee. You will then be added to our Master Waiting list. The balance of the Reservation fee will become due at time of dam's season. This fee of course will then be deducted from the total cost of your new puppy.
How long till the next available litter?
We plan our litters only after our dams have had a health and wellness exam post litter.
Thus our waiting times may be 4 to 8+ months depending on size you are looking for. We understand people want a puppy now, when you make that decision, the wait can feel like forever. However to be fair to us in our time spent vetting applications, and to our girls, we need to know our applicants are truly committed to a future puppy and are willing to wait for their new puppy from us here at BVM. We put a lot of time and work into each little crew we raise, and that includes the planning stage of any new litter.
Our hope is that this will not deter you but help you to feel more secure about placing your name on our waiting list.
How does the selection process work?...
Puppies have aways been reserved in order of reservation. Meaning, First reserved gets first pick, 2nd reserved gets 2nd pick, etc.
However, **We now(as we always have) give you our highest recommendation as to which puppy(s) will suit you and your family best. Meaning there is no "last" pick. Or just getting "whats left". As always, we work with these pups from day one, 24/7 and feel we have the better understanding as to their overall temperament.
We ALSO temperament test our puppies at the age of 7 weeks. Giving our puppies a voice in the conversation. With video and a report card of each. Learning who they are, how they interact with other canine friends & humans, how they feel about sights and sounds, are they happy to be in arms or do they prefer a more respectful touch in handling. More info on the temperament testing can be found here. Temperament trait testing
Any puppy can have an "off" day, and that may be the day you visit. Why "letting the puppy pick you" is really an outdated and uninformed way of selecting who your new puppy will be.
This is also why we ask you to fill out a completed application form. Telling us about you, your family, home, lifestyle, any other pets, work etc. As we get to know each other over the course of the months and weeks waiting for your puppy, raising your puppy, we also are assesing which puppy will fit and thrive with you.
