Shipping

​

We have options for local shipping up to 4 hours away. We have a family friend and past employee that delivers puppies for us. Shipping to Pacific by St. Louis, Missouri is $400 or $250 if at least two puppies are going in the same direction. Lebanon, Missouri is $250. She also does delivery to Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas up to 4 hours from Wheaton, Missouri. 

​

We offer a flight nanny service to people who live across the country or in a different country. The nanny hand delivers the puppy from my airport to yours, caring for the puppy the whole travel time. Stand-by flying is the most common option since it is the cheaper option $550-650, but flight days and times can change if there are no available seats. A confirmed ticket can be purchased at a discounted rate through the flight nanny, which is an add-on to the delivery fee. There is sometimes a pet in cabin fee as well $150.

 

Once a nanny has been booked, they will send out a group text with flight details and keep everyone updated with any changes as soon as possible. The puppy must be paid for in full in a couple days prior to the delivery date. The nanny fee will be paid at the airport in the nanny's preferred payment method: cash, Cash App, Venmo, Zelle, etc.

Microchip 

​

All of our puppies are microchipped around 3 weeks of age. This ensures you get the exact puppy you picked at 4 weeks. The microchip will be registered in our name. You will receive info to register the microchip in your paperwork packet at pick up. We use Global Pet Security to register our microchips. It is $125 for the life of your puppy. It is important you transfer the microchip into your name in case something happens and your puppy gets lost.

Grooming 

​

Doodles require grooming regularly, which is an added expense unless you want to groom them yourself. Before committing to buying a Doodle, make sure you have considered all the maintenance that they require. We groom our Doodles every 8 weeks. They need to be brushed between grooming appointments at least a couple times a week to prevent matting. The length and type of coat will determine how much extra brushing they need. Some Doodles have straight or wavy coats and some have kinky curly coats, which require the most maintenance because they generally don't shed. Make sure you purchase a comb and brush for grooming. Brushes mainly comb the top hair, while a comb will get down to the roots and prevent matting underneath, which is most common. Mats are also common around ears and tails. Bathe your Doodle no more than once every 1-2 weeks. You can wash away essential oils, making their skin dry and itchy.
