Puppy Pricing breakdown and policy
Deposit & Reservation Policy
At Michigan Goldendoodles, LLC, we require a $500 nonrefundable deposit to reserve your place in a specific litter. Puppy selection takes place in the order deposits are received, giving families who reserve earlier the opportunity to choose first.
A deposit is required before scheduling a puppy visit.
We understand that sometimes plans change! Although deposits are nonrefundable, we allow families to transfer their deposit to another available litter up to three times.
If Michigan Goldendoodles, LLC is unable to provide a puppy, we may choose to refund your deposit at our discretion.
Your deposit is valid for one year. If you have not purchased a puppy within that year, your deposit will expire and cannot be applied toward a future purchase. A new $500 deposit will be required if you decide to reserve a puppy after that time.
Our reservation process helps us plan responsibly for each litter while giving our puppy families a fair and organized selection experience.

Extended Stay & Training Program
A Little Extra Time, A Lifetime of Benefits!
At Michigan Goldendoodles, LLC, we understand that bringing home a new puppy is a big commitment, and sometimes families want a little extra time and training before welcoming their newest family member home.
That's why we're excited to offer our Extended Stay & Training Program!
This optional program allows your puppy to remain in our care beyond their scheduled go-home date while we continue building upon the foundation established through our Good Puppy Program.
Our goal is to help your puppy develop confidence, independence, good manners, and essential skills, making the transition into your home as smooth and successful as possible.
What Will Your Puppy Learn?
During their extended stay, your puppy will receive continued daily training, socialization, and enrichment tailored to their individual development.
We focus on advancing the following skills:
Leash Walking: Building confidence and good walking manners while learning to walk comfortably on a leash.
Sit: Responding consistently to the sit command.
Stay: Learning patience, impulse control, and remaining in place when asked.
Lay Down: Learning to settle and respond to the down command.
Crate Training: Developing positive crate habits, settling independently, and sleeping comfortably through the night.
Potty Training: Establishing consistent bathroom routines and developing reliable house-training habits.
Socialization & Confidence Building: Continued exposure to everyday sounds, environments, people, and experiences to encourage a well-adjusted puppy.
Our goal is for puppies completing the program to return home proficient in these foundational obedience skills, fully crate trained, and well-established in their potty-training routines.
Every puppy learns at their own pace. Training progress and proficiency depend on the puppy's age, temperament, development, and length of stay. Continued consistency at home is essential to maintaining these skills.

Giving Your Puppy a Head Start!
We believe that the time and effort invested in a puppy's earliest months can make a tremendous difference in their confidence, behavior, and ability to adjust to family life.
