Adoption
If you're interested in adopting one of our puppies, please send a request by email for an application. Once your application is approved, we will hold it on file until we know puppies are imminent at which time we will contact you to ask for a $500 deposit and send a preliminary contract (with unknowns about puppy specifics such as gender, color, microchip number) to reserve your spot in the applicable litter. Note: My Best Doodle reserves the right to retain a puppy for breeding from each litter as a future breeding hopeful. Deposit Refunds: $100 will be retained for administrative and processing fees.
We have raised our price due to steadily rising cost of expenses in the past 2 years; the purchase price for puppies born after 7/1/21 is $3,400.00 plus CT state sales tax of $215.90. The initial deposit of $500 is due upon receipt of contract to reserve your puppy. We ask for an installment of $1,557.95 when puppies are one month old and final payment of $1,557.95 is due 5 days before the puppy is picked up or shipped.
All puppies have their first vaccine at 7 weeks and go home microchipped, with a two year health warranty against genetic diseases and a health certificate from our vet. (Registration Papers and the pedigree are released when puppy has been spayed/neutered). Your puppy will receive ample socialization and love from my family members and neighbors with children as well as older family members and friends. When you get your puppy we'll send also a gift bag with a few toys and a piece of a blanket that smells like Mom and litter mates. My Best Doodle will provide educational support for the lifetime of the dog.

The Guardian Family
To make this work we have some requirements of our Guardians.
- You must live within 30 miles of Deep River or Chester, CT.
- You must own your home and your home must have a physical fence that serves to keep your dog in and other animals out.
- You must have a home environment where there's usually someone there and the dog must live indoors.
- You must have reliable transportation and be agreeable to us visiting you and you bringing the dog to us periodically. It's important the females know and trust the My Best Doodle family so she's comfortable and relaxed when in comes time to deliver a litter.
- Must contact My Best Doodle immediately when Guardian females go into heat.
- Gets a puppy that is our "pick of the litter". We do our best to keep puppies that display the optimum qualities we're all seeking in our Doodles and that's what you'll get.
- A puppy that goes through extensive health testing at no additional cost to you.
- A free Doodle
If you'd prefer to have a young adult breeding Guardian dog here's what you can expect
- Females and males will come to you fully health tested
- Our females may have already had litters so there may be only a couple of litters left to go before she's 100 percent yours.
- Heat cycles for females last two to three weeks. When this happens My Best Doodle will need to have access to the Guardian female for breeding activities.
- After getting pregnant the Guardian dog stays with the Guardian family until 10 days prior to due date.
- Ten days from due date the Guardian dog relocates to My Best Doodle family residence. She stays with us until the puppies are 8 weeks old. The Guardian Family is encouraged to visit their dog while with us. We'll setup a schedule so you can visit and see the progress of your dog's puppies.
If you'd prefer a Guardian puppy
- Puppies are delivered to their Guardian homes at 8 weeks of age.
- During the first year of life My Best Doodle will complete health testing. If My Best Doodle determines not to breed your Guardian puppy My Best Doodle will have the puppy de-sexed at no cost to you and the puppy belongs the Guardian family.
- We expect regular photos and updates about your puppy. We'll use that to keep our website and Facebook page current.
How Much does it cost?
