Upcoming litters
Our puppies are raised in my home with children and other dogs. They will have early neurological stimulation and noise desensitization completed at the required ages. The pups start potty training at 3 weeks old and continue until they go home which makes house training a breeze. They also have an introduction to crate training starting around 6 weeks old until they go home. At 7 weeks, they go through a temperament test, structural evaluation and Vet exam that helps me choose the best puppy for each family. Confirmed families are welcome to come and visit the puppies at 4 and 6 weeks old, and then the pups head out to their new homes at 8 weeks!
All puppies will be registered with the Canadian Kennel Club and sold on Non-Breeding Agreements. They come with a 3 year health guarantee for severe inherited health problems, as long as they are not spayed/neutered early, fed an appropriate diet and not overweight.
Included with each puppy are 2 online group training sessions, the 45 page Maplelane Puppy Raising Guide, Vet check, deworming, first set of vaccines, microchip, 2 weeks of pet insurance, and lots of extra goodies! We also love to keep in touch and provide lifetime support for you and your dog. The total cost for one of our puppies is $3,000 CAD + HST. A $1,000 deposit will be required to hold your spot on the list once you are approved for a specific litter.
Maplelane also offers boarding services to all our clients! Check out our boarding page for more information.
How the process works
Once you submit an application and I think you sound like a good fit, we will set up a phone call to get to know each other. We will discuss the process, answer any questions and talk about timing, etc. If we both decide it's going to work, we can set up a visit if you're somewhat local to come out and meet me and the dogs. After this, I will collect a $500 deposit and you will be placed on the wait list for the litter we decided was the best fit! How I work my wait list is I accept 6 families per litter in advanced, preferably for 3 females and 3 males. Our litters are usually bigger than 6, but I don't want to disappoint anyone if there aren't enough puppies. I then keep a stand by list, for families that will be on stand by until I know how many pups there are. We find this out the week before they are due when we have the xray done to count how many puppies. If there aren't enough, then you would move to the next litter. This means sometimes if the girls have a bigger litter there will be availability at the time they are born. Once the puppies are born, I collect another $500 down payment and send out the Puppy Raising Guide and all the important dates to schedule the visits, online training and pick up. The remaining balance is due the day you pick up your new puppy! Right now the wait list is full until the fall of 2025 but this could change!

2024 Breeding plans
Melody X Niles
12 puppies born April 17, 9 boys 3 girls
Melody will be having her first litter this spring. Melody is a super sweet girl that loves to compete in dock diving and lure coursing but also curl up on the couch with her cat siblings. Niles is a proven stud from Ambercroft Goldens. He is an exceptional show dog and has produced many grand champions. From this pairing, I expect lovely family dogs that will enjoy hiking, playing ball and being active but also with a nice "off switch" to happily loung around the house as well. This will be Melody's first litter which is why I've paired her with an older proven stud.

Fritter X Floki
Due June 10, 2024
For Fritters final litter, we plan to breed her to Floki again. We have Kya from their first litter together and are very happy with what this combination has produced! From this pairing, I also expect lovely family dogs with brains and beauty! The perfect all around golden temperament, enjoying being active as much as a cuddle on the couch. This will be Fritter's final litter before retirement! She will be spayed and her guardian home will become her permanent home!

Solo X Bear
due end of December/Beginning of January pups home late Feb or March 2025
Solo will be bred to Bear again in the late fall 2024. Bear is North's half brother and is from Bitagold Goldens and co-owned with Prophecy Goldens. This will be the second litter for these two as I am thrilled with how the first litter is turning out giving us Autumn. Puppies from this litter will be laid back and calm but still enjoy a good hike and active lifestyle. This will be Solo's final litter before she is spayed and will live with her guardian home permanently!

2025 breeding plans
Next year I plan to have 4 litters. The Mom's will be Melody, Latte, North and Stevie. North and Stevie will be completing their health clearances later this year so fingers crossed they pass! I'm not sure on timing yet of these litters as it will depend how their heat cycles go this year. The females can only be bred when they are in heat and they only come in heat every 6-8 months. Once they are in heat, they are pregnant for 2 months, then the puppies are raised here for 2 months. I will also choose the stud dog males closer to. Stay tuned!
Puppy applications are currently closed. Thank you!
At this time, our wait list is full until the fall of 2025. This may change if the girls from the planned breedings have big litters or someone removes themselves from the list. Follow our Instagram and Facebook page to keep up to date!
