Puppy Picking Details

Your puppy is growing and getting ready to come home with you soon! His/her personality is starting to show too. They are doing well. This is so exciting!!! It’s just a matter or waiting now. Thanks for being patient as your puppy grows old enough to go home with you!

PUPPY PICKING: Here is our plan for picking your puppy.

  1. The first choice goes to the person who has purchased the “first pick” for the male puppy and the “first pick” for the female puppy. The first pick purchasers step in front of the picking line. After the first pick for each male and female, puppy picking is based on the reservation order for each male and female. First pick can choose in person if they want to (most do not). The first-pick purchase option is listed on the home page, along with the exact date and time it will appear on the reservation page. All other customers will pick their puppy as described below.

  2. Around week five, we will take unique individual pictures of each puppy. Each pup will be labeled with their collar for identification. You can choose from the remaining pups by choosing their collar color. You can see the qualities and features of each dog very well in week 5 to help you select your new dog. The photos will be listed on the mother dog’s litter page for your reference. For example: Golden Litter Gallery/Maple’s Litter/Week 5. We will also have “Puppy Personality Profiles” with descriptions on this page around this time, and they will appear around weeks 5-6. We need time to profile them.

  3. We will contact you via email in week 6 or 7 to ask about your puppy choice based on the reservation order. Contacting you in week 6 or 7 will give you about a week to review the puppies' photos and decide. Picking this way is much better for the customer when choosing their puppy. You have weeks to watch and understand which is best for you, instead of 15 minutes with the puppies in person. Please be flexible as we list the remaining choices for you. The last person to make a reservation will receive the remaining puppy after the others are chosen. Please use email, not Facebook/Messenger, as email helps us track requests better.

    NOTE: We do not open puppy picking until after the pups have their vaccine and their veterinarian has cleared them. We do our best to ensure that the puppy each customer chooses is perfectly healthy. We believe the pups belong to our customers, so we do our best to protect and ensure their health until their new owner picks them up on “Bring Home Day.”

  4. If you already know your puppy’s name, please let us know. We will begin using his/her name so he/she will become a little more familiar with it. After picking your puppy, you can search for him/her in the upcoming photos.

  5. After all the pups have been chosen, we will contact you via email to schedule a time for the puppy bring-home day.

  6. We will also send you links to helpful tips and a list of the food and products we used to raise your puppy once your puppy is chosen. The products we use can be easily purchased on Amazon once we send you the link, giving you plenty of time to prepare.

    We look forward to meeting you and sharing your golden on bring-home day!


PUPPY PICK UP: Here is our puppy pick up plan.

We will email the day and time of your pick up. We have several people picking up their puppy that day, so we have 20 minutes increments of time if you would like to “talk puppies” before taking your puppy home. If the time does not work, please let us know so we can find a good time. We would like to see each puppy go to their wonderful new home on their 8 week birthday!

More details for pick up will be sent to new owners around 2 weeks before pick up.
