You are always welcome to pick up your puppy here at Gail's Doodles when they are eight weeks old. It is often difficult, however, to come back here just a week or two after choosing your puppy if you live hours away or have young children traveling with you. Because of this, we are usually able to offer a personal delivery of your puppy to a predetermined location. Many of our pups find their permanent homes in either the San Francisco Bay Area or the Los Angeles/Orange County vicinities.

Go Home Day

The “go home” day can be quite stressful to an 8 week old puppy as he/she is leaving everything familiar to him behind. We have found that traveling to a delivery location along with siblings is much less stressful for most pups than traveling alone. They will typically “dog pile” upon each other, feeling the warmth and comfort of their litter mates and sleep most of the way.


Boarding Fees

Please note that we do not allow puppies to remain here after their “go-home” date at 8 weeks. We require all puppies to go home when their litter-mates leave, as it is hard on a puppy to remain behind after all its siblings are gone. This is an extremely important time for bonding with his new owners and socializing in his new surroundings. Please ensure you are available for pick-up or delivery on the go home weekend, as this is a crucial time for your new four-legged family member.
*Some exceptions may apply. $25/night is the minimum rate, but price will be quoted based on each situation. We cannot guarantee this service will be available.
