SHIPPED PUPPIES

For all buyers that are having their puppy shipped by airfreight, whether you live in-state, out-of-state or out-of-country, we take your puppy to a licensed Vet (at the seller's expense) and send the puppy with an official Health Certificate. We do this for three reasons: (1) It is a requirement of all airlines to ship live-animals out of state or out of country; (2) we feel this is the least we can do since you decided to make a long distance purchase from our kennel; and (3) this prevents all allegations that a dog or puppy was sick when it left our kennels and thus the health certificate is the health guarantee for your puppy if shipped by airfreight.

No other guarantees, assumed or implied are covered by this contract.

FAQ

Shipping? We can have your puppy fly from either Tampa or Orlando International Airports. Shipping costs vary depending on the size of the crate the pup is shipped in but generally run about $200 in the continental U.S. for 8 week old puppies.

Stress? Any time a puppy is taken from it's environment, mother, siblings and original people, it undergoes stress. Keep your pup quiet and isolated from large gatherings of people for the first week or so.

Vaccinations? We vaccinate beginning at 5 weeks for Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza and Parvovirus and routinely wormed. You will want to be aware that there is quite a bit of discussion in the dog breeding community about the vaccinating puppies and it's relationship to auto-immune disease.
