Shipping & Pickup

As a reputable Yorkie breeder, I’m often able to ship puppies to buyers who don’t live locally. This is a common practice, but it’s crucial to ensure the process is handled responsibly and with the puppy’s wellbeing as the top priority.

Pickup:

I accept pickup for those who would like to pickup their puppies in person. You would need to come pickup at my home. I usually prefer pickup as it is a great way to get to know more about those interested in buying my puppies. Plus, I’ve met some really nice people over the years. For those who cannot make it here for pickup. I am able to ship the puppy to you.

Shipping:

I work exclusively with specialized pet shipping services to transport the puppies. These are companies that are experienced in safely and humanely transporting puppies and other companion animals via airplane. They have strict protocols in place to minimize stress and risk during the journey.

Here’s how the process typically works:

Scheduling the Shipment: I’ll coordinate with you and the shipping company to determine the best travel date and route for your puppy.

Preparing the Puppy: I’ll ensure the puppy is up-to-date on vaccinations, has been vet-checked, and is acclimated to the travel crate before the trip.

Ground Transportation: The puppy is transported to the nearest airport by a trusted courier or myself.

Air Travel: The puppy travels in the cabin or cargo hold (depending on airline policies) in a sturdy, well-ventilated travel crate. They are monitored and cared for by the shipping company’s staff throughout the journey. NOTE: All of my puppies go in the cabin of the plane and are always accompanied by a qualified pet nanny.

Final Delivery: Upon arrival at your local airport, the shipping company will coordinate the final hand-off to you or a designated receiver.

It’s crucial that you choose a reputable breeder, like myself, who partners with a reliable pet shipping service. Be wary of any breeders that try to ship puppies independently, as this can be risky. Additionally, I always review the shipping company’s policies and procedures to ensure they prioritize the puppy’s safety and comfort.

With the right precautions in place, shipping can be a safe and efficient way to bring your new Yorkie puppy home, even if I’m located far away from you.
