How the Welly Doodles adoption journey works.
The Investment
Welly Doodles puppies are $4,000, inclusive of Florida sales tax. The investment is paid in three milestones across the journey:
• $500 to reserve your spot (applied to your final balance)
• $1,750 at birth, or two weeks after reservation
• $1,750 by week 7, the week of pick day
Every puppy goes home with everything listed below included.
There are no add-on fees beyond delivery, if you need it.
- To start the puppy adoption process, complete the “Puppy Application” form by clicking on the link below. The purpose of the application is to help us find you the puppy that best meets your family’s lifestyle and personality.
- Once we have received and reviewed your application, we will contact you within 48 hours to discuss your application and answer any questions.
- Once we have accepted your application, submit your $500 reservation fee using Zelle (wellydoodles@gmail.com), payable to: Wellington Australian Labradoodles, LLC). When sending the payment, please list your reason as: Your Full Name, Dam and Sire you want a puppy from, Reservation Fee. (ex: Lola Smith, Jewels and Tucker Litter, Reservation Fee)
- Once you have submitted the $500 reservation fee, your place will be secured on our reservation list. This amount will be applied toward the adoption balance. In submitting an application, you are acknowledging and agreeing to our policies and guidelines.
- When the puppies are born, we will notify you by email. At this time, we will begin posting pictures to our website and social media accounts so you can watch the puppies grow and develop. In addition, you will receive weekly updates via email on your reserved litter.
- At the time of birth half ($1750)of the balance is due or two weeks after initial reservation fee was received. When sending the payment, please list your reason as: Full Name, Dam and Sire you want a puppy from, Birth. (ex: Lola Smith, Jewels and Tucker Litter, Birth)
- Full payment is due by 7 weeks of age (puppy pick day), remaining ($1750)balance. When sending the payment, please list your reason as:Full Name Dam and Sire you want a puppy from, Balance. (ex: Lola Smith, Jewels and Tucker Litter, Balance)
- Puppy temperament and selection process is done between the 7th and 8th week, in the order of the reservation list. Should you not find your perfect match(based on temperament, size, color, gender). I am happy to transfer your deposit onto the next available litter.
- Puppies will be ready to go to their forever homes after 8 weeks of age. Full payment of $4000 must be paid and purchase agreements must be signed before any puppy will be released to its new home.
What are my pick up/delivery options for my puppy?
- We prefer not to ship our puppies, but offer several options to get your new family member safely to its forever home. We do encourage you to drive in to pick up your new puppy on Gotcha Day. You can pick up your puppy in person at our home in Wellington, Florida on the scheduled puppy gotcha day (3 day window).
- We can meet you at one of the three local airports in West Palm Beach, (PBI), Fort Lauderdale (FLL) or Miami (MIA). You can then take your family member home with you in a soft sided carry-on bag in the airplane cabin. We do not supply the carrying case, but will get your puppy acquainted with one prior to flying. We charge $150 fee to meet at FLL or MIA airports.
- Lastly, we can have our “Welly Nana” who is our trusted in-cabin flight nanny who personally delivers your puppy to your nearest major airport. There is a $500 fee for this service, this does not include the price of the airline ticket. This will require additional arrangements so please let us know in a timely manner if you prefer this option. We prepare your puppy for flight by getting your puppy use to the soft-sided carrying case prior to departure day. We will always try to minimize stress to your future companions when needing to fly home. We’ve worked very hard to ensure all our puppies are confident and can easily adapt to their new surroundings.
- Should you not be able to pick up on the designated days, we will gladly keep your puppy for $35 per day after the go home date. This option will be based on availability, with a 7 day maximum.
