Preparing Your Puppy for Shipping
We take great care in preparing your puppy for travel to ensure they remain comfortable during their journey. Before shipping:
•Veterinary Health Check: Each puppy is thoroughly examined by a licensed veterinarian within 48 hours of departure to ensure they are in optimal health for travel.
•Vaccinations and Health Documentation: Puppies are vaccinated, dewormed, and provided with all the necessary health documentation for easy reference upon arrival.
•Travel Crate and Comfort: Each puppy is placed in a spacious, well-ventilated travel crate, equipped with absorbent materials and, where allowed, a small amount of food and water to keep them comfortable.
Shipping Timeframes
Our goal is to get your puppy to you as quickly and safely as possible. Shipping times vary depending on the destination:
•Domestic Shipping: 1-5 business days.
•International Shipping: 7-14 business days (may vary due to customs processing).
Once your puppy is shipped, you will receive a tracking number to monitor their progress.
Pickup and Delivery Options
We offer several options for picking up or receiving your puppy:
•Direct Shipping to Your Home: If available, we can ship the puppy directly to your address.
•Airport Pickup: For air shipments, we can arrange for pickup at the nearest airport, ensuring your puppy is supervised until you arrive.
•In-Person Pickup: You are also welcome to pick up your puppy in person at our facility.
Weather and Safety Precautions
The safety of your puppy is our top priority, especially during extreme weather conditions. If weather conditions (like excessive heat or cold) pose a risk to your puppy, we may delay shipping. We will work closely with you to make sure your puppy travels in a safe and comfortable manner.
Tracking and Updates
You will receive tracking information and updates as soon as your puppy departs from our facility until they arrive at your location. Our team is always available to answer any questions and keep you updated on your puppy’s progress.
What to Do When Your Puppy Arrives
Once your puppy arrives, we recommend the following steps:
•Visit Your Veterinarian: Schedule a health check within 72 hours to ensure your puppy’s health and provide peace of mind.
•Prepare a Comfortable Space: Create a quiet, warm area for your puppy to rest and settle into their new home.
Shipping Restrictions
Please be aware that some regions or countries have restrictions on the transport of live animals. It is the customer’s responsibility to verify local import regulations and ensure compliance. We are unable to ship to locations where the importation of live animals is prohibited.
