Last Updated: October 13, 2026
At Doodle Paradise, we are committed to helping our puppies find loving, responsible homes. We understand that welcoming a new puppy is an important decision, and we aim to make the adoption and purchasing process as clear and comfortable as possible.
Because puppies are living animals and every placement involves careful preparation, veterinary attention, and transportation arrangements, our return and refund policy differs from that of a typical retail business.
Please read this policy carefully before placing a reservation or purchasing a puppy.
1. Puppy Reservations and Deposits
A reservation deposit may be required to secure a puppy from an available or upcoming litter.
- Deposits are applied toward the agreed purchase price of the puppy unless otherwise stated in writing.
- Once a reservation is confirmed, Doodle Paradise may stop offering that puppy to other prospective families.
- Deposits are generally non-refundable if a buyer changes their mind or decides not to proceed, except where required by applicable law or where Doodle Paradise agrees otherwise in writing.
- If Doodle Paradise is unable to provide the reserved puppy, we will discuss appropriate options with the buyer, which may include a refund or the opportunity to select another available puppy.
Please ensure that you are ready and able to welcome a puppy before placing a reservation.
2. Cancellations by the Buyer
We understand that personal circumstances can change. If you need to cancel your reservation or purchase, please contact Doodle Paradise as soon as possible.
Refund eligibility will depend on the circumstances, the stage of the transaction, any applicable written agreement, and relevant consumer protection laws.
Deposits and payments may not be refundable simply because a buyer changes their mind. However, we will review individual circumstances fairly and explain the available options.
3. Health Concerns After Bringing Your Puppy Home
The health and wellbeing of our puppies are important to us. We encourage every new puppy owner to arrange a veterinary examination shortly after bringing their puppy home.
If you notice a health concern, please contact us promptly and seek advice from a qualified veterinarian.
Where a health issue is identified, we may request relevant veterinary records or documentation to help us understand the situation. Any refund, reimbursement, replacement, or other remedy will be considered in accordance with the purchase agreement and applicable law.
Nothing in this policy limits any rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded.
4. Puppy Returns
Bringing a puppy home is a long-term commitment. We encourage prospective owners to carefully consider their lifestyle, household, and ability to provide proper care before purchasing a puppy.
If you can no longer care for your puppy, please contact Doodle Paradise before making other arrangements. We will discuss the circumstances and any responsible options available.
- Please contact us before arranging to return or rehome a puppy.
- Any return arrangement must be agreed upon with Doodle Paradise in advance.
- Returning a puppy does not automatically entitle the buyer to a refund.
- Any refund or other resolution will depend on the circumstances, the terms of the purchase agreement, and applicable law.
Our priority is to help ensure that every puppy remains safe and receives appropriate care.
5. Puppy Shipping and Delivery Fees
If you arrange shipping, airport pickup, home delivery, or a puppy nanny service, additional charges may apply.
Transportation fees may be paid to third-party service providers and may be subject to their own cancellation and refund terms.
If a delivery arrangement must be cancelled or changed, please contact us as soon as possible. Any refundable transportation charges will depend on whether services have already been booked or provided, the applicable service-provider terms, and relevant law.
If Doodle Paradise needs to cancel or cannot fulfil an agreed delivery arrangement, we will discuss the available alternatives with you.
6. Refund Processing
If a refund is approved, we will explain the amount and expected processing method.
Where possible, refunds will be returned through the original payment method. Processing times may vary depending on the payment provider or financial institution.
Any refund will be handled in accordance with the applicable purchase agreement and legal requirements.
7. Situations That Require Individual Review
Some circumstances may require a case-by-case assessment, including:
- A significant health concern identified shortly after delivery.
- A puppy becoming unavailable after a reservation has been accepted.
- A cancellation or disruption involving shipping or delivery.
- Unexpected circumstances affecting the buyer or puppy.
- Any disagreement regarding the purchase agreement.
Please contact us with the relevant details so we can review the situation and discuss an appropriate resolution.
