PUPPY DEPOSITS, Pet Puppy Price is $6,000 ( This breaks down to $5,454.55 plus $545.45 GST), Deposit is $1000
Breeders enquiries are welcome
Puppy deposits,
The deposit is $1000 and is not refundable unless of special circumstances or if for some reason we cannot provide a pup. The deposit is our commitment to each other. We encourage families to place a deposit as early as possible but when they have given considerable thought and are sure that they want a Scawoo puppy.
For the people who have already paid the deposit I will make contact once we have puppy news.
Gender: When committing to a pup, the guarantee of providing a pup is alot easier when families can be flexible on sex and colour. We can have litters with a good mix of genders but also with predominantly boys or girls, we have no say in what genders will be delivered. Cobberdogs male and female are beautiful, there are no comparable differences between the genders, making a boy or a girl a great choice . We understand sometimes gender is non negotiable for a family and that is ok, it just means occasionally a family may need to wait, if a litter is predominantly the opposite gender to what they desire.

Colour: sometimes its easy to get hung up on colour. We have cobberdogs in our program that are the full colour spectrum. each and every colour is truely beautiful, but its the dog inside that we see, not their colour. Temperament shines so much brighter than any colour.
Sometimes people may have a colour they won’t accept, often the reason seems to be that their previous dog was that colour. Whilst we love flexibility its ok to express a colour that you wont except on our application. But please know that whilst we do take your preferences seriously, we do not allocate puppies based solely on colour.
If there is a colour you wont accept because of a certain reason, we will guide you to a litter where that colour wont be produced or where we will get a selection that we can work with for you. We encourage families that are very colour focussed to place themselves in a litter where all the expected colours will work for them.
Temperaments and energy levels do differ, even within a litter, and we need families to trust in the process. If we allocated pups based on colour this would be a disservice to us, to you and most importantly to the puppy. Example: if we have a pup that is lower energy and a pup that has med to high energy and we are allocating to two families. One family is a retired couple who like lazing at home and pottering in the garden and the other family are a very active family that enjoy a high paced lifestyle and adventures. If one of these families is very specific on colour and wont bend at all, say its the older retired couple and we give them the high energy puppy, just because its brown with white paws, this would be a disaster. The puppy wont get the life it needs, the family wont get the pup they need. They may get the pup they want based on colour but the joy of the right colour will be short lived. We will not choose pups solely on colour, for this very reason, we have enough experience to know that this does not work and we want to set families and our precious puppies up for success. Each planned litter above we give the expected colours, please ensure you are happy with all or most of the expected colours to save disappointment. Be assured,if for example you have expressed you would prefer a light puppy and we have a chocolate and a blonde and both these pups would suit your needs, then we will absolutely look at your preference and send the light puppy your way.
Size: Currently we are breeding miniature, small mediums to large medium/ small standards. We have a couple of small mediums coming up and we also have a lovely miniature. We are actively working towards a smaller line to offer ,as well as our bigger lines. We endeavour to be able to offer, mini to small mediums, true medium litters, which are right in the middle of the medium range and large medium to small standard litters.
Families need to remember that puppy sizes are estimates based on the parents size, however because cobberdogs have different sizes in their genetic history sometimes they may be a bit smaller or bigger than we expect.
Manners and expectations: If you are waiting on a puppy from a litter, the litter has arrived and we have confirmed that we will have a puppy for you, please confirm that you are happy to proceed or not. We allocate puppies at 7 weeks and they then go to homes at 8 weeks or a day or two later. Please have this in your calendar and be prepared. Once pups arrive we will give you a timeline of dates and also our extensive puppy guide so families can start preparing.We have your best interests at the forefront and we just ask that families also be empathetic and thoughtful towards us.

The deposit to secure a puppy is $1,000. This is our commitment to each other. That we will provide you a puppy and that you will wait for that puppy. We ask that families are fully committed before placing the deposit. We ask that families have manners, and that changing your mind at last minute is not acceptable. We will have your best interests at heart, so please consider us and the puppies too.

Of course sometimes there is exceptional circumstances and I am not talking about that.
But please remember, you will have these dogs for many years and we need to work our life around them no matter what. We will get sick, our lives will be chaotic at times, there maybe illnesses in our close or extended families. Life throws curveballs all the time, but once we make a commitment we should be prepared to work things out. Please be respectful of our work, please be respectful of our puppies. When a family changes their mind close to go home, we have let several awesome families go because all pups are sold. We are left with a pup without a home. That is not fair!
Waiting List: people can request to be put on a waitlist however if you are really invested in an upcoming puppy a deposit is a great way to secure your spot. However if you aren’t completely sure, the waiting list is the best option.

With litters we take around 6 deposits and then wait for puppies to arrive, we then open extra spaces.

Interstate puppies/flying puppies: for people further away who can’t travel to pick up their puppy we can offer to fly your puppy. Puppies fly all over Australia and overseas without issues all the time and its a very common and safe way to transport pups.
When we fly pups we choose to drive them to the airport ourselves, we get up bright and early, give them a small feed and play, play play with them to tire them out before their flight. We also prepare flying pups with exposure to crates and by playing airport noise cd’s to accustom them to some of the things they will encounter.
Puppies get a fit to fly check at the vet to ensure they are fit and healthy to make the flight and we deliver a happy , healthy prepared pup to the airport.
The beautiful thing about puppies is how they live in the moment, they generally bound into their new families lives and adapt quickly.
