.Preparing Your Puppy for Shipping
Our puppies are raised with care, and we take every precaution to ensure they are comfortable during transport. Before shipping:
- Veterinary Health Check: Each puppy undergoes a health examination by a licensed veterinarian within 48 hours of departure, ensuring they are in perfect condition for travel.
- Vaccinations and Health Documentation: Puppies are vaccinated and dewormed, and all necessary health documentation accompanies them for easy reference upon arrival.
- Travel Crate and Comfort: Each puppy is provided with a spacious, well-ventilated travel crate that includes absorbent materials and, where permitted, a small amount of food and water to keep them comfortable.
. Shipping Timeframes
Our goal is to have your puppy arrive as quickly and safely as possible. Shipping times will vary based on location:
- Domestic Shipping: 1-5 business days.
- International Shipping: 7-14 business days (may vary depending on customs processing).
Once your puppy has shipped, you will receive a tracking number to monitor their journey.

Weather and Safety Precautions
Your puppy’s safety is our highest priority, especially during extreme weather conditions. We may delay shipping if weather conditions (such as excessive heat or cold) pose a risk. In these cases, we will coordinate with you to ensure that your puppy travels under safe, comfortable conditions.
. Tracking and Updates
You’ll receive tracking information and updates from the moment your puppy leaves our facility until they arrive at your destination. Our team is available to answer any questions throughout the shipping process and to keep you informed of your puppy’s progress.
. What to Do When Your Puppy Arrives
Upon arrival, we recommend that you:
- Visit Your Veterinarian: Schedule a health check within 72 hours to confirm your puppy’s health and provide peace of mind.
- Prepare a Comfortable Space: Your puppy will appreciate a quiet, warm area to rest and acclimate to their new home.
