OUR PROCESS

At Lil Rhody’s Doodles, we believe bringing home your new best friend should feel exciting, clear, and personal. Here’s what you can expect when you join our doodle family

Check our website 


01



Look through our website to learn more about our breeding story, our previous and upcoming litters, and testimonials from happy families. Our home-raised Goldendoodles are known for their loving temperaments, health, and intelligence—and we’re proud of the connections we've made with each of our puppy families.

02

Reserve your spot



Once you’ve decided we’re the right breeder for you, fill out our puppy application, and then we will do a phone interview. After the interview, secure your spot on our waiting list by placing a non-refundable deposit. Puppy selections are made in the order deposits are received, so we always recommend securing your place early. Our waitlist tends to fill up quickly!

03

Watch Your Puppy Grow!



Wait and watch as the mother dog goes through pregnancy, delivery and raising your new puppy. I post often so you can join us on the journey.

04

Selection Day



At 6 weeks of age, we host Puppy Selection Day. Families choose their puppies in the order deposits were received. We schedule individual meet-and-greet times so each family gets time to interact with the puppies. This is the perfect chance to ask questions, get to know your future companion, and bring a blanket or toy to leave with your chosen pup—capturing the comforting scent of mom and siblings before they head home

05

Go Home Day



At 8 weeks old, your puppy is ready to join their forever home! You’ll receive a health certificate from our licensed vet, vaccination and deworming records, 1 year limited health guarantee, a starter bag with the puppy’s current food and helpful resources. The remaining balance is due at this time. We’ll make sure your transition is as smooth as possible!

06

A Lifetime Support



Our relationship doesn’t end when your puppy goes home—it’s just beginning! We offer lifetime breeder support for any questions, guidance, or updates you’d like to share. We love seeing our doodle families thrive and grow, and invite you to stay in touch as part of the Lil Rhody’s Doodles community 🤍
