Frequently Asked Questions!
How big will the puppies get?
The average size of our cockapoos and cavapoos is generally around 20 lbs. We have several parents under 15 lbs., but our smallest size is 10 ish lbs. Please keep in mind that doodles are a hybrid and not a “standardized breed” and it is important to note that specific sizes cannot be guaranteed for an adult dog. We estimate puppies adult weight by averaging the weights of their specific parents.
If I place a deposit on a puppy do I get updates?
Yes! We generally do pictures toward the beginning of the week and have them posted by end of the week, every week! Also, once the puppy is old enough to be playing and moving around we will upload videos to our YouTube Channel here.
Can I visit the farm?
We are happy to set up a time for you to see or pick out your puppy in person (after puppy has reached 4 weeks of age). Visitors are allowed with an appointment only. Just give us a holler and we will get it setup.
How much are your puppies?
Our puppies range in price and will be listed on the website. Deposits to hold a puppy are $500, and are non-refundable, plus a 3% processing fee. Deposits are your commitment to your puppy! As soon as we receive a deposit, your choice of puppy will be marked “SOLD” on our website and removed from any other sites the puppy is listed on. Payment in full is required BEFORE the puppy leaves the farm. We do allow you to transfer your deposit to another available puppy. Our prayer is the right family finds the perfect puppy.
PLEASE NOTE: We charge Missouri state tax (5.975%) as well as a 3% fee on all processing transactions used on the link with our website. We have Venmo, Cash App, Zelle and bitcoin available that doesn’t charge us a fee.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept Cash, payment through the website (Simmons Bank), Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, bitcoin and PayPal. The website and PayPal options allows various ways to pay including credit cards (which does charge us a transaction fee of at least 3%).
Do you offer discounts?
Yes, we are happy to offer discounts to military/veterans, first responders/nurses, homeschoolers/teachers and past customers! Reach out for more details!
When can my new puppy go home?
The puppies will stay at the farm until they are at least 8 weeks old. If they happen to be under 3 lbs we may want to keep them an extra week. Puppies must be picked up by the time they are 10 weeks old. A boarding fee applies to any puppy we hold beyond 10 weeks old at a rate of $15.00 a day. This could change if prior arrangements have been made.
We strongly encourage you to pick up your puppy no later than 10 weeks old. Getting them as soon as they are ready gives you critical bonding time with you and your family. We prefer them to bond with you and not us.
Can I get on your wait list?
Yes! Our waiting list requires a deposit of $515 (includes 3% processing fee for the link on our website or PayPal) or $500 for Venmo, Cash App, Zelle or bitcoin for a future litter. You will also be able to pick a puppy in order of depostits received. This deposit is also non-refundable. It is good until you find the right puppy for you. If you're interested in being on our wait list, let us know!
What will come home with my puppy?
You will get their original medical records for your puppy with up-to-date puppy shots and wormings. They area all microchipped and come with an automatic Health Warranty (as seen on the medical tab). We feed NutriSource food (found locally at Bomgarrs, Petsway and Menards). We will send a sample home with you. You can visit the NutriSource website, click here, and enter your zip code for a list of distributors near you that “should” have their food.
How about shipping?
Shipping prices are changing due to flight issues and rising cost. We will let you know as soon as we can what the cost of the shipping will be. Ground transportation can be arranged to come to your door for $500. Air-Crate shipping averages $500. If preferred, we are open to a flight nanny, as long as you coordinate with the nanny. (these prices vary by location, timing and ticket prices) If we meet you, we charge approximately .60 cents a mile round trip plus tolls etc. We have some preset locations to various areas that have been used before so I can get a price for those locations. All transportation costs will be discussed prior and can vary! Reminder: the remainder of the puppy balance must be paid in full before leaving to meet or other arrangements prior to leaving.
Do you have a sales contract or warranty?
A: Yes! Click here to see puppy contract. All of our puppies have a 1 year health warranty against genetic health concerns.
Are you licensed?
Yes. We are USDA licensed # 43-A-6920. We are also Missouri State licensed.
