How much is the adoption fee for an Australian Labradoodle puppy?


At Snooz and Sniff, the adoption fee is $3500.00 plus WA state sales tax. A $500 non-refundable deposit is required to hold your puppy. The deposit will be deducted from the total.
The remaining $3000+tax is due at seven weeks of age, after the selection day, and the puppy contract is signed.

How do I get on the Reservation list for a puppy?


Once you submit the Adoption Application and pay the non-refundable $500 deposit, your name will be placed on our master list in the order the deposit was received. Your name will stay on the list until you select a pup to buy. You will have the opportunity to choose a puppy from your preferred litter. If you decide to wait for the next litter, your name will move up the list.
Learn more on the Adoption Process page.

How long is my non-refundable deposit valid?


The deposit is valid for two years from the time of submission. You will remain on our waiting list until you have chosen a puppy or the two years have elapsed. Should you want to remain on the list, you must submit an additional $500 non-refundable deposit. This will be deducted from the total $3,000. The balance due at seven weeks of age would be $2,500. Each deposit is individual and cannot be combined.

Do you offer discounts for puppies?


We offer a 10% discount for families that adopt their second puppies from us. Guardianship is also a great way to have a best-in-the-litter pup at a low cost. Check out more details about the program here.

Are all Australian Labradoodles asthma/allergy friendly?


The Australian Labradoodle is allergy friendly by nature. There are two distinct coat types: wool or fleece textured. Fleece and Wool tend to affect a person’s allergies less, while hair, as with any breed, can sometimes create mild allergic reactions. For those with severe allergies, we always suggest a fleece curly puppy.
Learn more on our About the Breed page.

What size Labradoodles do you breed?


At Snooze and Sniff Labradoodles, we breed the multi-generation Miniature and Medium size Australian Labradoodle. Ranging from 16 lbs. for our smallest female to 35 lbs. for our largest male.

Will my Australian Labradoodles puppy have its shots?

Our puppies are raised in our home from birth. When puppies reach the appropriate age, they receive the necessary regimen of vaccinations to keep them healthy and protected. We also deworm each puppy at 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks of age to help prevent parasites.

Before puppies go to their new homes, they receive their first round of parvo/distemper vaccination, a full physical, and the first month of heartworm prevention. We also provide regular veterinary care throughout the puppies’ early life.

Can we see pictures of Alumni?


Please check out our our social media on Instagram and Facebook for the cutest puppy pics and videos. Want to be featured? We encourage all SSL Alumni families to share, like, and tag pictures; using our handle @snoozeandsniff.labradoodles and hashtag #snoozeandsniff.labradoodles to be featured on our accounts.

Can we come visit?

To minimize the risk of spreading parvo, visits to our home are permitted but taking high precautions. Parvo can be transferred through microscopic fecal matter, commonly found on the bottom of shoes. Our priority is to protect the health of our puppies, so we take all necessary precautions.

Do you deliver?


Yes!
Options include:
Delivery to the Greater Seattle Area, your home or a meeting location within 2 hours from our home in Port Orchard, WA ($2 per mile – one way)
SEA-TAC airport delivery to meet you and/or your family ($200)
Flight nanny delivery (cost varies +/- $600)
Pick up directly from our home as well!

What colors do you offer?


We currently offer a variety of reds, apricots, and parti with black pigment. We want to add chocolate to our program the following year.
A great resource for explaining the different colors and color combinations can be found by visiting our Australian Labradoodle club’s website by clicking HERE

Currently, we do not reserve puppies by a specific color, sex, or other specific traits. However, we will do everything we can to match you with the puppy of your dreams. If a certain litter does not satisfy your wishes, then we move you to the next litter.

How long do I have to choose a puppy?


Each family will be assigned a date for puppy selection that will be communicated to you in time. If we do not hear from you that day, we will move to the next family on our list. You are welcome to contact us anytime should you spot your forever Australian Labradoodle on our available puppies page.

Do you offer a training program?


Currently, we do not, but we highly recommend BAXTER & Bella for all of our puppy families. Their system is designed to not only teach your dog how to behave, but also to coach you on how to train and integrate a canine companion into your life, family, and home. What’s more, they are offering for our families a 25% discount on their lifetime membership, which includes more than 75 lessons, over 100 how-to videos, printable charts and checklists, unlimited one-on-one professional help, online classes and courses, training games and activities, and much more!

Yes, if you are unable to pick up or receive your pup by 8 weeks old, we can make special arrangements to keep your puppy for a certain period of time. This needs to be arranged in advance of the pickup day and there is a fee of $60 per day.
