Welcome to Gold Star Family Poodles

Who are we?

A Bit About Us

A bit about us is vague let us start off from the beginning. Leroy Schlabach is the owner of Goldstar Family Poodles. Leroy (and my wife Clara) both grew up in the country on  100 acre dairy farms. Always caring for and loving the animals.

 After getting married and building a home on a 4 acre lot in the country. We fell in with Standard Poodles. After a few years of having a pet we got started breeding Standard Poodles and Standard Goldendoodles.We have been blessed with 5 children ranging from 1 to 12 years old. They all love playing with and socializing with our puppies which is very important and makes the transition to new homes much easier and less stressful for the puppy.

 At Gold Star Family Poodles we have about 15 years of experience breeding and working with dogs which is our passion. We selectively breed for health and temperament.

 We follow a strict vaccination and deworming protocol and all our puppies come with a 1 year health guarantee. Our goal is to have all of our puppies go to loving pet homes or to qualified breeders. Delivery is available to anywhere in the United States.

Thank you for looking and let us know if we can be of any further assistance. Contact Us!

Our Health Guarantee

Gold Star Family Poodles
Contract and Health Guarantee
This contract is the full agreement between the Buyer and Seller of the puppy. This puppy is
guaranteed to be in good health to the best of our knowledge at the time of sale, having had a
health check by our veterinarian. The Seller will provide Buyer with a health record of all
vaccinations and deworming as well as a veterinarian examination of the puppy.
Buyer agrees to take puppy to their veterinarian within 10 days from the date of purchase. If
the veterinarian believes that the puppy is not healthy and has a life-threatening illness, the
buyer must notify the seller within 24 hours of the initial examination and provide us the
reports from your veterinarian to make a claim for a replacement puppy. If there is a problem,
our veterinarian will interpret the report and if they concur, then a replacement puppy will be
given. This health guarantee is for 1 year from the date of purchase. In this case, you will have
the option of replacing the puppy or getting a refund. Transportation charges will not be
refunded or paid on the replacement puppy.
If the puppy dies from a suspected congenital defect within 30 days from the date of purchase,
an autopsy must be performed at the Buyer’s expense by a veterinarian to determine the cause
of death. If our veterinarian agrees that the autopsy shows a congenital defect as the reason
for death, the puppy will be replaced at no charge. A written statement from the licensed
veterinarian must be provided.
Puppies are sold as pets. The Seller makes no guarantee as to disposition, conformation, size,
weight, color, markings, or breeding ability, Buyer understands that this puppy is being
purchased as a pet and the Seller cannot guarantee the breeding, hunting, or show ability of
any puppy. This guarantee does not cover any expenses due to neutering or spaying, including
undescended testes. We do not warrant against any condition caused by carelessness,
negligence, or abuse. The following are NOT covered by this guarantee:
– Reimbursement for veterinary expenses
– Reimbursement for air transport or return
– External parasites, such as ticks, fleas, or ear mites
– Internal parasites, such as intestinal worms, or their effects (almost every puppy has some
sort of intestinal worms. Although we have wormed your puppy regularly, it only takes a
few days for him/her to pick up another “batch”. This is just a part of puppy hood, which is
why a regular worming schedule is recommended.)
The Buyer agrees to provide a life-long commitment, comfortable environment, prompt
medical attention, proper grooming, and responsible care. The Buyer promises to provide a
safe environment for the dog. Seller is not responsible or liable for payment on ANY medical,
dental, or surgical procedures to maintain the animal’s health or well-being after the time of
purchase.
The Seller’s health and genetic guarantee does not apply if any injury, illness, disease, or fatality
develops as a direct result of the dog being overweight, malnourished, or neglected as deemed
by our veterinarian. If the puppy is resold to another party other than who the seller sold the
puppy to, this guarantee is null and void.
The Seller will not offer a refund or replacement due to buyer’s remorse, difficulty housing a
dog and/or change of heart/mind. The Seller does not guarantee the behavior of any dog.
However, the Seller will take back any dog purchased from them during its lifetime if the owner
is unable or unwilling to care for the dog. The dog must be returned with all records.
This contract shall be deemed legal and binding between the Seller and Buyer and is under the
jurisdiction of the State of Ohio in Holmes County. It is further agreed that should any
dispute/arbitration between the Seller and Buyer regarding said puppy that the legal venue
shall be in the State of Ohio in Holmes County.
