Cotton & Gray Goats and Goldendoodles LLC Puppy Purchase Policy for Goldendoodles
 

Waiting List

 

There is no fee to be on our waiting list.

​

Once we have a confirmed pregnancy, those on the list are notified.

​

We notify those who have been waiting on the list in order.  

​

Being on the waiting list does NOT  secure a puppy.  Once families on the list are notified of the pregnancy, they are given 1 week to confirm their intention of moving forward with reserving a puppy.  If Cotton & Gray does NOT hear within that 1 week allotment, the name is removed from the list and the next family bumps up to that spot.   With so many families on the list who have been waiting, it is not possible for us to wait indefinitely.   

​

Cotton & Gray will provide a follow-up inquiry as to intention before removing names from the list.  

​

Reserving a Puppy

 

Once we have confirmation of pregnancy, Cotton & Gray will send out an announcement to those on the waiting list. 

​

Being on the waiting list does NOT secure a puppy; Cotton & Gray requires confirmation of intention:

​

Cotton & Gray has a line of families waiting for a puppy.  When we send out confirmation of pregnancy to those on the waiting list, it is our policy that we need to hear back within one week of intention for the spot to be reserved.  If we do not hear back, Cotton & Gray must assume plans have changed and there is no longer interest in a puppy.  

​

Without notification of intention, the name will be removed from the list and the next family will be moved to that spot.  

​

If Cotton & Gray is notified of intention within that week, a reserve is placed for that spot on the waiting list.

​

When puppies arrive, a birth announcement is sent out with an invitation to come to Cotton & Gray to meet and select your puppy.  Visits will be scheduled when puppies are 5 days old, no sooner.  Reservations may also be made by viewing the photos of the puppies online.

​

 A non-refundable $200.00 deposit in the form of cash, check or Venmo is required for the reservation of each puppy.

​

Puppies will be available to pick up at 8 weeks of age, no sooner.  Puppies that have been reserved need to be picked up between week 8 and 9 or the $200.00 deposit will be forfeited and the puppy will be re-listed for adoption.  

 

Payment

 

Payments must be made with cash, check, or Venmo is available.  

 

Check payments require proof of identification via valid, non-expired driver’s license.  We reserve the right to photograph personal identification when customer pays with check.

 

Full payment must be received by Seller before Buyer can take possession of puppy.

 

Veterinary Care

 

While in Seller’s possession, Seller carries responsibility of necessary veterinary care of puppies.

 

Seller will provide wellness visit when puppies are 6 and 8 weeks of age, wherein they will receive a full checkup, including deworming and distemper/parvo vaccines.

 

Once transfer of ownership has occurred, Buyer takes full veterinary responsibilities of puppies.

 

Transfer of Fiduciary Responsibility

 

Immediately after transfer of ownership, Buyer absolves Seller from any and all fiduciary responsibilities pertaining to the sold puppy / puppies.  

​

Visiting the Farm

​

We understand that bringing a new animal to your home is a big commitment!  We also know there is only so much a photo and words can say about the animal you are interested in.  At Cotton and Gray, we know it is important to be able to see, snuggle and snap your own pics of your prospective baby goat or puppy before either making the decision to buy or before taking your new tyke home.  Therefore, we offer private visits to the farm so you can have that sweet one on one time that brings peace of mind and sweet snuggles.

​

* We cannot allow visits from other dogs.  Our veterinarian strongly recommends we keep the property closed to visiting animals for the safety of our puppies.  Even if dogs are fully vaccinated, if they walked through a grassy area where another dog has been with Parvo, they could unwittingly be carrying the virus and bring it to our property.  This could affect our pups through the mother taking it to them if she picks it up, or when they are old enough to romp the property.  Please, for the sake of our puppies and your future pup, do not bring your dogs to come visit or meet the puppies.  If your dog comes with you as a ride-along, we insist the dog STAY IN THE VEHICLE and not be let out for a run or bathroom break.  We understand the desire to have your dog meet the new puppies, but we have to insist on this strict policy.
