9-30-23 The three girls should start their season(s) soon!

Visiting:
Prior to a family making the selection of their pup, they may start viewing them at 4 weeks and weekly thereafter on Saturdays (within a 45 minute window between 9am and 3pm) until they go home. Prior to that, families are welcome to meet us, see where the pups will be raised and ask questions. I am in Burien about 5 minutes away from SeaTac.

Adoption Fee:
Tri-colored and sables are $4,300; black and white or black and brown (Bi-colored) are $3,300, and for those that mainly black with a touch of white are $2,300. A $500 non-refundable deposit along with the questionnaire below, lines up families to make their pick of a puppy at 7 weeks with the final payment due upon pick-up at 8 weeks.

Questionnaire, Sample Contract, Recommendations on owning a Bernedoodle:

To review the contract, that the questionnaire references. It is intended to protect both parties and is signed off on upon pick-up of the puppy.

Time Frame:
Typically there are 5-10 puppies in a litter. The families shown below will be choosing or choose based on the date of their deposit. Once a deposit is placed, the owner has the option of the current litter, or to wait for a future litter. If identified, their preference of sex, size and coloring is shown - This gives others knowledge of who they may be leaning towards and helps me choose the appropriate sire for those highest on the list.

List for Future Breedings: - (to the right is desired sex, coloring and size {which may change})
Sherry and Conor - Male - Tri - #65-75 Offered a pup from Dec 19 litter but want to wait for summer 2023.
Sofia and Amir - Either - Tri/Sable - #45+ 1-2-2023 They were higher on list and I offered a pup but they wanted to go to the bottom.
Ellie and Gryska - Female - Tri/Merle - #45-60
Mark and family - Either - Any - #45-55
Michael and Kathryn - Either - Any - #45-65
Gayle - Male - Tri - #65-75
Brian & Erin - Either - Tri/Any - #45-55
Kevin & Annalisa - Either - Bi - #Any

Managing the List:
In the event litters are larger than anticipated, or if a family needs to roll over, those lower on the list will be contacted to determine their interest. If someone does rollover, they will be placed on the list numerically, based on the date of their deposit or desire. If anyone can think of something more fair, please advise.
Below are some pictures of last years litters. More litter pictures are on the Puppies/Parents page.
