Adoption Process

Once you have made the decision to adopt one of our beautiful puppies, please fill out a puppy app to let us know about their future family. We will get back in touch with you within 24 hrs. of submitting your app. If you don't see our response by email kindly check your junk or spam folder.  Once approved you can submit a deposit to hold your pup of choice until pickup at which time the balance will be due. Our current available puppies will be listed on our "Available Puppies" page. Our deposits are non-refundable but can be transferrable in the unlikely case that your pup of choice isn't what you were looking for at the time of pickup.

Please keep in mind, several people are likely considering each puppy listed on our site. They can find homes very quickly! Puppies aren't held without a form of payment. Once a payment has been received on a puppy, their payment button will read "sold out" when you try to submit the payment.  Our doodle puppies are available for homes all across the US. Local pickup options are available in select cities in Minnesota, South Dakota and Iowa. 

We realize everyone would like to pick out their puppy in person. Unfortunately due to high disease risk in young puppies, all our puppies are picked out through our site/email and transferred to you directly at one of our pickup locations when they're old enough to go to their new home. It is our hopes you'll also keep them safe at your home until many more rounds of vaccinations have been received making it safer for them to be around the public. We know this is hard to do because everyone naturally wants to go show off their new little love, however this is the safest option for your new puppy.  Protect their life and your investment- dog parks, pet stores, in-store training & high traffic pet areas with waste should be avoided during these early weeks of life. If you have pets at home, please make sure their vaccinations are current and they aren't visiting the above high risk areas during these weeks. Puppy disease can be spread and carried on dog waste, fur, paws, clothing and shoes. Certain diseases are also airborne. The new strain of 2c Parvo is very aggressive and llfe threatening. Please take this advice to heart whether purchasing your puppy with us or any other breeder. 

After submitting your down payment, we will email you our sales contract. Please return via email. A signed copy will be included in your health packet at pickup. 

Once the above information has been submitted to us, we will be in touch with you to arrange the final arrangements such as pickup day, location and how you wish to pay your final balance. 

If the timing isn't right to adopt one of our current puppies or if there aren't any available, you may sign up for one of our upcoming puppies by submitting a deposit to get on our waiting list by completing the above steps. You may remain on our waiting list up to one year to make timing/selection work for you. Pictures are emailed out to deposit holders at 5-6 weeks of age to those on our waiting list before the rest go on our site. We offer mini [20-45 lbs.] and standard sized [50+ lbs.] Bernedoodle puppies. Thank you!
