How to purchase:

Reservations can be made with a $200 deposit. Deposits are deducted from original balance. They are transferable, non refundable. Deposits can be made by:PayPal (we send you an invoice, 3.5% fee also applies) Please don’t assume other methods are accepted. 

All of our puppies are sold on a pet contract. You must spay or neuter, unless a breeding contract has been approved & purchased. Breeding rights are available foran additional fee.

How Selections are made:

Selections are made in the order that fees/deposits are received. Typically the selection process starts around week 5-6. This gives time to ensure puppies are thriving, personalities are emerging, etc. We do pictures, videos,  and assist with personality descriptions, etc. You may visit in person, but must abide by our visitation/disease control policy. We ask that when it is your turn to select, that you do so in a timely manner within 12 hr with litter sizes sometimes around 10, you can see why it isn’t possible to give everyone 2-3 days to decide. 

How to pay your balance:

We ask that balances be paid in full by age 6 weeks.
Personal checks are welcome, as long as they are received at least 14 days prior to delivery or pick up.

If a method is not listed, then we do not accept it. Please do not assume we will. 
We cannot accept Venmo, we cannot accept PayPal for balances. 
BREEDING RIGHTS are an additional fee, more info on FAQ page, or please ask. Not all litters have the same fee for breeding rights. Pet contract does have fine if broken. 

Picking up:

Arrangements are made for the 8 week mark to pick up. If you are needing a different time frame to pick up, please discuss this in advance.   We do have options for boarding. Boarding fees apply. 

We have a complimentary delivery/pick up route for our litters within 150 miles of Tulsa, Ok. This route is coordinated with multiple families, and is a single route delivery day. It also has a strict time schedule.  We are happy to discuss the possibility of delivery outside of the 150 mile radius if we are available and able to accommodate, mileage outside of the radius is reimbursed at the government allowable  + .10 cents rate per mile. 

Going home tips:

On pickup/delivery day, bring a towel and some wipes for travel just in case.
Be very careful where you take your puppy. Avoid high traffic areas. Your puppy is not immune from viruses until the shot series is complete and has had time to work. Your shoes can track in deadly viruses, keep them out of reach. Cleaning with bleach can kill some viruses.
Get your puppy into your  personal veterinarian within one week of picking up.
Change can cause stomach sensitivity. If switching foods, do so gradually. Mix a little new in with the old until transition is complete. Introduce new kinds of treats slowly. It doesn’t hurt to have canned pure pumpkin on hand for loose stools due to stress & these changes.
We free feed. It’s ok to let your puppy do so for the first few months. Your puppy food will have serving recommendations if you prefer not to free feed. Puppies drink a lot of water.
Crate-we prefer a large or medium one with a divider. If your puppy can get away from his/her mess, they will. Crate training can not be as successful if they can't get away from their mess. Be patient, potty training can take several months.
Puppies love stimulation, toys are fun!
Bring a leash and harness.

FAQ's
Socialization: we are passionate about it. We spend about 6-8 hours a day, 7 days a week caring and playing with puppies when we have them, practicing Early Neurological Stimulation socialization, Noise desensitization and some Puppy culture techniques. 

How big will they get?

There are no guarantees on size. You'll find details on our parent pages on parent sizes. Know the parents of your future or current puppy and yours will likely be in that parent range average. Females tend to be slightly smaller than males. 

What shots will my puppy need?

While they are with us, we keep them current on vaccines.  It is your responsibility as a pet owner to continue that shot regimen. Parvo/distemper/influenza shots are a series of shots typically completed 3 weeks apart. Rabies shots are typically give at age 3 months. Puppies are not immune from disease until series is complete.

How often should I groom?

That is up to your preference.  Standard poodles require grooming a little more often every 6 to 8 weeks. Again, that depends on your preference. However, whatever your preference, introduce your pup to a groomer asap! You want them to be comfortable & used to going. It will be easier for them, and your groomer. We would introduce once the shot series is complete! 

Questions about updated pictures:

When we do litter pictures, we prefer to bathe, blow dry prior to photo shoot. Keep in mind these litters can have over 10. It takes hours just to bathe & blow dry. Next comes posing & getting still pics. It may take 30 shots to narrow down 3-4 good pics. Then comes updating the website, ads and so on. To update pics, can literally be an all day process, we ask for your patience in between sessions.  Updated pics will be done 10-14 days apart pending schedules. 

Housebreaking:

We introduce the idea of housebreaking with puppy pads with each litter. We crate when permissible. We recommend crate training. Taking your puppy out after eating to go to the bathroom in the same spot after eating. I highly recommend crate training. I personally buy a big crate with a divider. If your puppy has room to "get away" from his/her mess, they are less likely to have accidents in the crate & a sooner success rate.

What are you feeding the puppies?

Some of us use Royal Canin puppy kibble, or Purina Pro Plan Shredded Chicken blend & Rice & some of use Purina Puppy Chow, blue bag with 3 shapes only. We are aware there are other choices out there, it is recommended that you stay with the same food for the 1st year, if you do decide to change over transition slowly by blending the brands. 

Breeding/Showing:

We sell our puppies at pet pricing unless otherwise agreed upon prior to sale & breeding/show rights have been approved & breeding contract paid for. You must spay or neuter by age 9 months if you have not been approved for, or purchased a breeding contract. Pet contract now states if your pet is bred, whether by accident or intentional-you will be responsible for a fine of 10 times the original purchase amount plus legal expenses. We have spent a great deal of time, research, so on in the selection process of our lines for our breeding program. We ourselves, must pay breeding rights for these quality lines. When you purchase a companion on a pet contract, and do not honor that contract, it's comparative to stealing years of hard work, time, money getting the right lines. It's completely unethical as well. Thank you for understanding. 

Can we visit in person?

We prefer to share pictures & videos, FaceTime. We do allow visitors, but have a strict disease control policy. Serious inquiries only on visitors. If you are "shopping" or unsure of your commitment to a poodle or doodle, please do not ask to visit. We do not want to risk our puppies or dogs to viruses. Viruses like parvo can be carried in on your feet, clothing. Especially if you've been out visiting other breeders and shelters. Parvo can be a deadly puppy disease. Other illnesses such as kennel cough, influenza, etc are also contagious. We have bleach pans to step in at the front of our home, back of our home. Puppies can play in an observation area for you to see. We provide disposable gloves for you to put on to pet puppies, but you are not allowed to hold them. We hope you understand our efforts to keep your future puppy disease free. If someone has been out visiting other breeders, facilities, we ask that you simply do not visit us also. We are now requiring our visitors to sign an agreement that they have not visited another breeder, humane society, shelter within a 30 day period of visiting us. For security purposes, we also have a logging system, and security cameras/surveillance. We want to do our part to prevent disease, being safe, all while still allowing visitors to know your puppy is well cared for.  This Visitation policy is in affect for all of our home(s).
