WHAT IS THE PROCESS?! ...

 

~   What to expect    ~

 

 This is what the process looks like  from first inquiry  to Gothcha Day   ...​​

1.     INQUIRE     -    Please   email, call, or text anytime.    I check my  voicemails last. 

 2.    RESPONSE TIME    -    I often respond quickly even within minutes, but please give

24  hours for a  reply.

3.    PHONE CALL     -     I require an initial phone call prior to taking any deposit or 

 

placing   a family on a waitlist.    During this call I like to   learn more about you and your 

 

puppy   quest  while   sharing more details about our puppy practices.    I will answer all

 

of your   questions   and generously  share lots of helpful need-to-know cavapoo info!

4.    DEPOSIT -   I ask a $200 deposit through either Venmo or credit card over the

phone.  This applies to the price and can be transferred as needed to any other

available waitlist or  puppy.     * Non-refundable if removing altogether on your   own.  

5.    PROFILE FORM - Unlike an application, this is a step I ask you to do after

 

taking a deposit.  A few questions and answers to fill in key details about your

 

preferences so I have a record I can refer to.  (  IMPLEMENTING SOON )

6.     PREPARING FOR PUPPY - Once I have a deposit and  necessary contact

 

information, I will send you Welcome   emails and texts chocked full of helpful

 

information to help you prepare for bringing your puppy home... Lots of convenient and

 

fun stuff!

7.    WAITLISTS - I will carefully decide which waitlist or multiple waitlists to place

 

you on.     When     Momma dog gets pregnant I will be able to give you  a  Due date and also

 

an approximate Go Home date    as well.     

8.    UPDATES - I will provide updates via group texts periodically starting at the

 

birth, then at intervals:   1.5 weeks, 3 weeks,  5 weeks, and 6 weeks old.     Between 5   - 7

 

  weeks is when I am   actively engaging all families helping choose the   right puppy.    I

 

use   Live Zooms to   entertain long distant "visits".  

 

 

9.     CHOOSING PUPPY  -    Between 5 - 7 weeks is the time period when visits are

 

welcome.  The families at the top of a waitlist either 1st, 2nd or 3rd spots, are kindly

 

asked  to plan their visit earlier than later as courtesy to others on the list.    Zooms are

 

a great way to visit the puppies remotely for those who can't travel.    I actively engage

all families on the list during this time until official pick date right at week 7.    I am

always  amazed at this process and often feel like I am in the back seat     watching

 

 things come together as if providence  plays the  primary    role  despite my efforts.  

 

 

10.    GOTCHA DAY    -    Typically 8 - 8.5 weeks old is the go home time for most puppies

 

if weighing at least 3 lbs.    I am happy to meet you one hour out to save travel time if

 

you live two or more hours away from my home.  

 

 

11.    TRANSITION HOME -   I am happy to assist you in the immediate transition

 

days, so feel free to contact me for advice or help.   Of course I am always available   into

 

the future as well for anything really  at anytime.  I will always care for the wellbeing of

 

the puppies I raise and love to receive updates and pictures as they grow!  

During the  phone call I will ask about your preferences for :    

TIMING   -   When is the earliest you want to bring your new puppy home?    How flexible

are you with timing or are  you willing to wait? 

GENDER   -     Female, Male,   or either     ( females notably become more  emotionally

 

attached to one human in the family, whereas males   more equally with everyone )

SIZE   -     Mini   ( 9 lbs  -  13 lbs) ,    Medium    (  14 - 17 lbs) ,    Large    (  18 - 25  lbs  ) 

TYPE OF CAVAPOO - 

F1   - 1st generation  ( 50%/50%)

 

F2   -   2nd​   generation   ( 50%/50%) 

 

F1B  - 1st   generation breed back  to poodle (  25%/75%  ) 

ALLERGY CONCERNS -   Does anyone have a known diagnosed Clinical allergy to dogs?
