Purchasing a Doodle

Applications for new buyers are the standard these days with dog breeders. I take a more personal approach with my dogs and the placement of their puppies. I prefer to exchange information with perspective buyers through either email or telephone. You need to feel that I am providing the right addition to your family, and I need to feel that my puppy will be well cared for. I will begin our conversation by telling you a little about myself.

I have been breeding AKC golden retrievers for over 19 years. I have always been conscientious about screening for health issues prior to breeding; that is why I am comfortable offering a two year health guarantee on my puppies. My female retrievers have all either been born here or purchased from people owning my puppies. This gives me firsthand knowledge of the health and temperament history going back several generations.

We purchased our standard poodles from a breeder who has the same level of commitment to breeding sound, well tempered dogs that I do. Her poodles have been wonderful additions to both our breeding program and our family.

We always welcome visitors at Old Mill Kennels. Deposits are accepted after a litter is born, the deposit holds a place in the selection process. Actual selections are made by the new families, in the same order deposits were received. When families are not able to select their puppy in person, we happily assist by describing in detail personality differences in the litter. Ultimately the selection is made by the family.

Most of our new families pick up their puppy in person. We offer shipping through Delta or door to door personal delivery for those families living at too great a distance to make the trip to Old Mill Doodles. These services are offered at an additional charge.

We look forward to hearing from you. You may contact us if you have any further questions about purchasing a doodle of your own.
