Standard Puppy Application
Thank you for your interest in one of our Golden-Doodle puppies. If you have any questions, please call, message us on Facebook or send us an email to lazyacresdoodles@gmail.com.

Completing this application along with a phone consultation is required as part of our screening process for all new adopting families before being added to our waiting list. Once you are approved for adoption, a $300 reservation fee is required, in the form of a Personal Check, Money Order or Venmo payment. Reservations Fees are non-refundable and will be applied to the total purchase price of your puppy. The remaining balance is due at time of pickup which is at 8 weeks of age. Once we receive your application form, we will contact you within 48 hours to discuss your application and provide details about our current or upcoming litters.

At 12 weeks, 3 months old, 3 hours.

At Lazy Acres Doodles, we require the puppy/dog be returned to us - at any age - if you are unable to care for the dog. Our goal here is to keep any Lazy Acres Doodle dog from being in a shelter, rescue or anywhere he/she's not wanted. We will work with you to find the right home. We want to know if the dog has been re-homed so the new owner knows we will always take them back and rehome if needed - at any age. Do you agree to notify Lazy Acres Doodles first if you can no longer keep your dog?*
Lazy Acres Doodle puppies are sold on a strict Non-Breeding - Spay or Neuter Contract. We do not allow our pet puppies to be used for breeding. Do you agree to spay or neuter your puppy by 18 months of age?
