Hearty K9s Sales Agreement - The Way We Do Business

We make every effort to assess your personality and your needs for a lifelong companion with the unique characteristics of the Labradoodle/Goldendoodle cross breed. You will need to fill out an adoption form as the first stage of adopting your new pup.

  1. Your pup will have a health check at 6 weeks of age, shots updated, dewormed, dewclaws removed and micro-chipped.
  2. Your pup will be socialized, and will graduate from our puppy program.
  3. We provide a two year health and hip dysplasia guarantee. If there are any congenital or genetic problems which will inhibit the pup from being a quality companion dog, we will accept the pup back for a full refund or exchange. A letter explaining the pup's defect from a certified vet must be faxed to us prior to the exchange. A phone call is also satisfactory with a follow-up letter from the certified vet. Vet charges and transportation costs will remain the responsibility of the client.
  4. Once your application has been submitted, it will be screened to determine if a Doodle is a good fit for you. You will be contacted whether we accept your application or not. When it is determined that you would make a good fit with the Labradoodle or Goldendoodle cross breeds, we will require a non-refundable deposit of $250 CAN. This deposit will hold your place on the waiting list until we acquire a good match to your list of wants and lifestyle. We normally take 5 deposits before a litter is born, then wait to see how many there are before accepting more.
  5. When a pup is born and is determined to be a good fit for you, you will be contacted. At this time, we require the remaining owing on the pup to be paid at least 2 weeks prior to pick up or delivery. If an unforeseen event happens to your pup, your final payment will be returned to you and your deposit will be held for another pup.
  6. Our prices start at $1250 CAN and depends on the individual pup and its coat. Canadians pay 5% GST. Prices are payable in Canadian dollars.
  7. We strongly suggest that you pick up the puppy from us yourself. If this is not possible we must receive funds to cover shipping and crate expenses two weeks prior to the shipping date.
  8. We offer continuing support to you during the lifetime of your dog. Contact us anytime for your questions and concerns.
  9. We hold a special place in our hearts for our pups and we want to know how they are doing. We gladly receive and encourage updates and family pictures.
  10. Please make all cheques payable to Dean and/or Sonia Nelson.
