Shipping information

When you adopt a pup from us, you have the option of picking up your pup or having it shipped to you by airplane.  Airline regulations state that your pup MUST be at least 8 weeks old prior to shipping.  If you choose this method to receive your pup, we know your wait is longer but that just means that they receive more training and socialization.   You'll be thrilled upon the arrival of your pup so he or she is well worth the wait.

The closest airport to us is Nashville International Airport (BNA).   The airlines we use for your dogs domestic travel are American Airlines or Delta (preferred).  In the event you wish to ship your pup out of the continental United States, please contact us for more information prior to placing a deposit.  We DO NOT SHIP OUTSIDE OF THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES.  Reason being, Alaska has other regulations and quarantine periods, Hawaii has a 120 day quarantine period.   Likewise due to extended transit times we will not ship to Canada or outside of the US.

Domestic shipping is an additional $300 added to the price of your pup.  We will ship your puppy in a carrier approved for airline travel and include all paperwork, health certificate and food/water necessary for the trip home to you.  The bottom of the carrier will be lined with paper or other absorbent material to help keep your puppy dry on the trip.  We will also include a small towel, cuddly blanket or toy for your pup to snuggle with during their flight.    Shipping costs may increase over time as airlines increase the price of a ticket.  We reserve the right to increase our fee accordingly.  Your $300 shipping fee covers the following items:

• Cargo Flight Ticket Cost and insurance $240.00  (as of nov 2009)

• Carrier  $26.00

• Health Certificate $35.00

• Flight Insurance $3.00  (our loss for your protection)

• Gas to and From Airport  $30.00 (my loss to keep your cost lower)

We reserve the right to delay shipping your pup in extreme cold or hot weather.  Although the pups travel in the temperature controlled cargo bay of the plane, the pups may be exposed to temperatures on the tarmac for up to an hour which may still pose a health safety risk.  The airlines also monitor temperatures in departure, connecting and destination cities and if above 90 (sometimes 80) or below 45 degrees, will not ship pets.  This is because the dogs will be exposed to outside weather conditions between flights.   Most airlines will not ship snub nosed dogs (pugs and bulldogs) from May to September due to the heat but since the Puggle inherits their mothers muzzle, they are not included in that category.   Should we ever breed and ship pugs, temperature restrictions do apply.

*Per our 72-Hour health guarantee, we are not responsible for any accidents or injury once the airline personnel have taken possession of your pup.  Any claims must be addressed with the airline.  Insurance will be purchased when available.  

Should you have any questions about shipping your precious Puggle pup, feel free to ask.
