HOW TO RESERVE YOUR GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPY

Puppy Selection & PricingPuppy selection is based on each litter, gender preference when possible, and temperament testing to identify the best match. Selection order is determined by the order deposits are received. Selection takes place on the puppy go-home day, typically at 8–9 weeks of age. If any puppy is held beyond 9 weeks of age at the buyer’s request of a refund, documented care expenses incurred will be deducted from the deposit, with any remaining balance refunded in accordance with California law.
The deposit is applied toward the total purchase price of $3,000- $3500. The remaining balance is due in cash at pick-up unless prior arrangements have been made.

Please note: prices may change for future litters, but once your deposit is placed, your price is locked in.

*All puppies are sold with limited AKC registration which means breeding is not an option for my puppies.

Ownership Approval
I reserve the right to refuse placement of a puppy if I feel it is not the right match. Approval is required before a deposit may be placed.

Deposit Payment Options
Once approved, deposits of $500 can be made via:

Venmo: @FamilyLovedGoldenRetrievers
Zelle
Apple Pay
Personal check (deposit only) – If paying by check, please notify me as soon as it is mailed. Your place in line will be held for 3 business days from that notification.
