Mini and mini Goldendoodles

Adopting One of Our Puppies

Our puppies are completely loved, ethically bred, and responsibly raised. Adopting your mini or medium Goldendoodle puppy from DeeCor Goldendoodles means choosing a puppy from fully health-tested lineage. All of our dogs come from reputable breeders across North America who conduct extensive health testing. We test all of our parent dogs for hip and elbow dysplasia using OFA, eVet, or PennHIP evaluations. They are also certified by OFA for basic cardiac health, patellas, and CAER (eyes). Additionally, all of our parents are tested for hereditary Goldendoodle genetic diseases.

All of our dogs live in our home or in carefully chosen Guardian homes, where they are valued and cherished as family members.

Our puppies are raised in the heart of our home, where they remain until they are ready to join their new families. They are handled daily with tender, loving care, ensuring they are used to gentle touch and nurturing voices.

We practice Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) with all of our puppies from days 3 to 16, giving them the best head start for their development.

We believe in early socialization and stimulation to create well-rounded family pets. Our puppies are pre-loved, cuddled, and socialized with care by various adults and children. They also experience car rides and receive a head start on potty training and crate training. At about five weeks old, we introduce a crate into their sleeping area, allowing them to come and go as they please. This helps them feel more comfortable with the idea of crate training, which we highly recommend.

Once we begin the weaning process, our puppies are introduced to high-quality puppy food soaked in goat’s milk. When their mother is ready to fully wean them, they transition to solid, high-quality kibble before leaving for their new homes.

​

Veterinary Care

Before going to their new families, our puppies undergo a full health exam by our veterinarian. They receive age-appropriate core vaccines, are microchipped, and are dewormed.

​

Health Warranty

We offer a three-year health warranty against hereditary diseases and a lifetime of support.

​

Price

Our puppies are $3,000-$3,200 plus applicable taxes.

​

Puppy Pack

Your new puppy will go home with a starter pack, which includes:

• A three-year health warranty.

• Access to DeeCor Goldendoodles' private family group.

• A puppy collar.

• A puppy blanket with their mother’s scent.

• A puppy toy.

• 30 days of free pet insurance from Trupanion.

• A bag of the high-quality puppy food they are currently eating.

• A starter package of NuVet supplements.

• Photos and updates of your puppy from birth until eight weeks or until they join your family. Updates are posted in our private family group or sent via email/text weekly.

• A lifetime of support from DeeCor Goldendoodles.

 

Visitations

We welcome visits to get to know one another before our puppies arrive. This gives you a chance to meet us and see where your puppy will spend their first eight weeks of life.

Once the puppies are born, we hold a visitation day when the puppies are 5-6 weeks old. We understand how exciting it is to bond with your puppy through photos and videos, and we look forward to introducing you in person! To protect our puppies from communicable diseases, we have some rules for visitations, which will be outlined in the "Meet the Puppies Invitation" sent after your puppy’s birth.

If, for any reason, a family needs to re-home their DeeCor Goldendoodle, it is our responsibility to take the dog back or assist in finding a suitable new home.

 

Reserving a Puppy

If you would like to apply for one of our puppies, please fill out an application on our Application page. To help us get to know you better, include details about everyone in your household and an overview of your lifestyle. Helpful information includes your activity level, work hours, and any special needs or requests.

Let us know the personality or temperament you are hoping for, your size preference, and any other preferences to help us match you with the perfect puppy. We consider each puppy’s temperament, energy level, size, and coat type to ensure the best fit for their new family.

Our goal is to ensure that every puppy finds a loving, lifelong home.

All of our puppies are sold on a strict non-breeding contract and must be altered by 12 months of age.

 

Deposit

Once your application is approved, a non-refundable deposit of $350 is required to reserve your puppy. This deposit is deducted from the purchase price. If we cannot provide you with a suitable puppy from your chosen litter, your deposit will be refunded.

 

Guardian Home

Occasionally, we look for Guardian homes for future breeding puppies. If this interests you, please read more on our Guardian Program page.

 

Delivery

We love meeting our families in person. If possible, we prefer you pick up your puppy in person so we can meet you! However, if this is not possible, we can hand-deliver your puppy to the Comox Valley or ship them to you via WestJet Cargo. Please inquire about delivery pricing.

We reserve the right to refuse a sale.
