What is the purchase process? How do I get started?
PLEASE READ OUR PROCESSES CAREFULLY AS THEY HAVE CHANGED EFFECTIVE 05/31/2006

Pin Oak Farm provides the high level of service you need to get the Doodle puppy you want. We do this by providing the following option(s) for you to choose from:

Application Process

Pin Oak Farm prefers that our customers choose their puppy in person, and we encourage customers to visit Pin Oak Farm for an opportunity to meet us, the puppies, and their breeding parents. It also helps us to get to know our customers better. We do not choose puppies for customers, unless there are unforeseen circumstances that would warrant us to do that.

Due to the volume of applications, we now breed puppies to fill specific orders. In doing so, we require that applicants “reserve” their spot by coming to select a puppy and by sending a non-refundable deposit. The deposit does not hold a specific puppy for you, it simply reserves your spot to come and choose your puppy.

The process is as follows:

Customers can submit a Pin Oak Application online and specify particular attributes and characteristics they are looking for in a doodle puppy.

There is no commitment or obligation by completing an application. However, in order to be placed on a Reserved List, you must send in a $300 non-refundable deposit. Applications without deposits are still considered in the event there are more puppies than reservations for any particular litter. However, in order to guarantee placement on the next available reservation list, a deposit must accompany your application

All applications are acknowledged, and any questions will be answered. If there is an active litter (planned/expected/born), we will reply with current litter information, availability, status, etc.

If there are no current litters, customers will be contacted when a litter is planned, meaning the mother/female is ready to be bred. At that time, if a customer is still interested, they must send a deposit to reserve their selection spot.

IMPORTANT: Deposits may be sent at any time, and you do not have to wait until we contact you. Reminder: In order to be considered to be in a Reserved status, a deposit must accompany your emailed application. You are not placed on a reservation list until your deposit is received. Your selection position is determined in the order in which your deposit was received. Deposits must minimally be in the amount of $300.00. Deposits are non-refundable, but are transferable to other Pin Oak litters.

We communicate with customers that have submitted deposits as the pregnancy and delivery progress. You will receive updates on the puppies growth and development, and we will email photos of the litter as they grow. Customers begin to come and choose their puppies once they are 8 weeks of age. Customers come in the order in which their deposits were received. Any customer who cannot come in their scheduled sequence must make arrangements to either come earlier and make their top few selections, or forfeit their position and come as soon as they are available.

Pin Oak Farm reserves the right to choose or “reserve” puppies in the following situations only: 1) If a puppy is going to a special needs home, or is being used as a therapy dog, Pin Oak reserves the right to reserve any puppy from a litter which we feel is the best fit in that situation; 2) If a customer specifically asks us to choose the puppy for them, we will do so in the order the customer would have been scheduled to come and choose for themselves; 3) Any puppy we wish to retain for our own breeding program. Puppies pre-reserved by Pin Oak for these situations are not available for customers to choose from at their time of selection.

Puppies may go home with their new families anytime between 8-10 weeks of age. Boarding fees will be charged for any reserved puppy that remains here after 10 weeks of age.

By sending an application and deposit, you are secured a place on the list of next customers to contact. Again, we will try to fill your order within one year of the application. Many times it will not take that long, but we cannot guarantee the exact time frame.

UNRESERVED PUPPIES

Pin Oak may, on occasion, have puppies that were not previously reserved by the Application Process. This rarely happens as most puppies are reserved before they are born. If any puppy(s) remains unreserved, Pin Oak will contact our list of applicants who have not sent in deposits, to see if they are interested in the available puppy(s). If none of our applicants are in the market for a puppy at that time, the photos and bios of available puppy(s) will be placed on the website for public viewing. Customers interested in these puppies must also submit an application, contact Pin Oak immediately via email and send a deposit to hold the specific puppy. If more than one customer reserves the same puppy, the first customer to send their deposit and application will receive that puppy.

PRICES & DEPOSITS

Price Change Effective April 15, 2010:

All F1 Standard Labradoodles and Goldendoodles = $1100 + tax

All F1 Mini/Medium doodles are $1300 + tax

All F1B (Standard and Mini/Medium) are $1300 + tax.

All F2 (Standard and Mini/Medium) are $1300 + tax.
Deposits of $300 may be sent in the form of a personal check. Deposits are non-refundable. Sending a deposit reserves your spot to come and choose a specific puppy from the next available litter. Puppies are not guaranteed within a certain timeframe, but our goal is to fill your order within one year. In the event that we receive more deposits than puppies, deposits are transferable to the next available litter.   (Deposits and prices prior to April 15, 2010 have not changed.  If you are currently reserved and have placed a deposit prior to that date, your price has not changed.)

The balance due at pick up must be cash, money order, or bank check (cashier’s or certified).

Deposits are transferable to other litters. This means that for whatever reason, if you’ve placed a deposit and now wish to transfer it to another litter, you can. There are two important details to keep in mind however. First, transferring to another litter will forfeit your selection position, and place you next in line at the time you’ve made the decision to transfer. You are not placed ahead of customers who were originally on the selection list before you. Second, the price of the litter to which you are transferring may be different than the litter from which you transferred. Mini/mediums are priced higher than standards.

Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE!!! When you place a deposit with us, you are committing to purchasing a puppy from Pin Oak Farm, LLC.  We breed our litters and plan our upcoming litters based on deposits that are received.  I cannot refund deposits because you change your mind, or find a puppy elsewhere.  Most likely, once you have placed a deposit and been placed on our reservation listings, other customers have been turned away because a list will be “full”. 

Many times customers place one deposit and have their names on multiple lists.  They are waiting for the right timeframe, gender, color, size, breed, or various other scenarios as well.  So technically, this customer’s name is taking up several spots.  If that customer wants their deposit back, it is like losing several customers at once; at some point I will have the match you have requested.  Most litters and matches can occur within a year; other times it may take slightly longer.  It just depends on how full the lists are, and how frequently we are breeding for your request.
