Waiting List Process :

• usually via an initial enquiry email telling me all about yourself, lifestyle, family, home and work situation. 

• I will reply within 48hours and request a zoom chat with you lasting about 30-45mins. 

• Following the Zoom meeting I will email you to recap our conversation along with my payment information to proceed.

 

1. To reserve a place on my waiting list for a Pet Puppy, a non-refundable £300 deposit is required.

2. Once your puppy litter is born and you can commit to a puppy, then a further amount is requested.

3. The final amount is due just prior to collection.

​

Payment Process :

​

Northbound Australian Labradoodles sell our pups for a pet price with no breeding terms permitted.  A pet puppy contract will be issued once puppy is chosen, this includes a 12 month spay/neuter agreement.

​

The price of your Northbound puppy is across four parts:

• I request a £300 non-refundable deposit to join my waiting list, this is to ensure committed homes only apply.

• A further deposit of £600 is required to secure a puppy only once the litter is safely born and I know there are enough puppies for each waiting home.

• The third payment must be received before the puppy is collected for their new home. 

• The fourth balance payment is due only if contract terms are not followed and the pet dog remain intact, un-neutered or un-spayed past 12months old.  Vets routinely neuter between 6-12months old as standard.

• Completing the permanent spay/neuter operation and providing the vet invoice as confirmation prior to 12months old as contracted will void the final fourth balance payment. 

• The microchip held in the Northbound ALD Ltd name will be transferred to the new owner once spay/neuter complete.

(Price is subject to review and change) 

 

Master List Explained :

​

There are two waiting lists; Mini-Small Medium (16-19"), or Medium-Standard (19-23").  

 

The master list system was set up after a couple of my girls did not fall pregnant. This meant that homes that could not take a puppy, were then unable to move onto the next girls litter as this was already fully reserved, and this to me seemed very unfair.

 

Over the years I have noticed that homes are most specific over size than any other area, and so the two lists were devised with homes being allocated on individual preference.

 

The Master Lists are hugely successful because the benefits to the waiting families are;

• families can be flexible on their puppy timing in case of illness, house move etc...

• families can move up the list and 'overtake' other families who may be constrained by timing, holidays already booked, temperament required or size.

• families are not stuck with a particular girls mating and subject to the girl falling pregnant and having a large enough litter.

• families can and do decide to wait for a later litter, which then allows other homes who may only have been on the reservation list for 1-2months to take a puppy.

​

Temperament is still the priority and recommendations for litter suitability will be discussed with each home.

​

​

A whole host of exciting things happen.

​

Puppies are terribly hard work.

They require immense dedication, time and the commitment to attend regular training sessions to achieve the dog you dream of.
