• Lifelong support from Kadli Cottage.

Applications must be confirmed with your booking fee of $500. This is deducted from the final balance. Puppy prices are the same for all sizes (medium or standard), genders, colors or coat types.

Does Kadli Cottage has spay or neuter contract?

- At Kadli Cottage, we take care of this for you, before the puppy leaves (the cost is included in the price of your puppy). Veterinary research indicates that early spay/neuter is is healthier and kinder to the puppies. Desexing a dog costs around two hundred dollars and up so this is a big saving for you later on.  If you are interested in breeding australian labradoodles, please contact us for more information.

Do you have a waiting list and how long is the wait?

- Yes, we have a waiting list and we do encourage you to get on it once you have made your decision. Our website is updated on the status of our Dames and litters when relevant. Waiting time depends on your flexibility with your choice of color, size  and/or gender. Getting on our waiting list is free. Just fill out our online application.

Do you ship puppies?

- Yes, and your puppy is well prepared for the journey. From birth your puppy has been conditioned with body stroking and handling and around two weeks of age (when their little eyes and ears are fully open) their visual and audio senses are stimulated with constant music and white noises like washer and dryer, dishwasher, car rides etc. The cost of shipping your puppy within the US is about $300 depending on your state. This price includes all travel arrangements made for you from Kadli Cottage to your closest airport, approved travel crate (you keep), Veterinary inspection and flight clearance, puppy comfort towel and chew toy, water/food dispenser, the flight.

Can we pick up our puppy, from Kadli Cottage?

- Yes, if you live in the Seattle area and wish to pick up your puppy we will be delighted to meet you in person! About two weeks before your puppy is ready we will call you to set up a pick up day and time. We do ask you to respect our privacy as a family with children and to not "drop in" or "drive by".

Can we personally choose our own puppy?

- Times are changing. There is an increasing trend among conscientious breeders to select which puppy they will send to any particular home. The reason for this is that the breeder is already familiar with the puppies from the day they are born, and interacts with them all many times on a daily basis. At Kadli Cottage not only do we spend many hours interacting with your puppy we will also carry out a temperament and character analysis on each pup around seven weeks of age and you can be sure we will pick the right puppy for you and your family!

What happens next?

It is as easy as 1-2-3!

1. We will be in touch with you via email (please save our email address australian.labradoodle@gmail.com in your address book or your "safe list" so that our emails do not end up in your junk folder) or give you a call. Feel free to give us a call if do not hear from us within 48h.
2. When the litter is confirmed we will send you a full application which needs to be returned to us with a $500 non-refundable deposit. This deposit goes towards the price of your puppy. It is important that you let us know right away, if the timing is not suitable, so that the puppy may be re-allocated to another family.
3. Puppies are tentatively allocated when the puppies are around 4 weeks of age. The balance will be due at that time. Your name will be placed beside the puppy we think will be yours, but the final allocation is done at the completion of character assessment and temperament testing at around six weeks of age. This is when you will receive the official email to notify you that you have been allocated your puppy and pick up or travel arrangements will be made. At 8 to 10 weeks your puppy will be ready to go to his new home!
