Our Step-by-Step Delivery Process
- Discover and Reserve Your Perfect Puppy
Start by browsing our selection of adorable Shih Tzu puppies, each with a detailed profile highlighting their unique personality, temperament, and coat type. Once you find the perfect match, reserving your puppy is easy and secure. We’ll take care of all the paperwork, ensuring a smooth and stress-free process so you can focus on getting ready to welcome your new furry friend home! - Ownership Transfer and Responsibilities
Once your new puppy is handed over, ownership is officially transferred to you. If you’re unable to receive your puppy at the scheduled time, the adoption contract will be voided, and you’ll receive a full refund. After the puppy is in your care, it’s your responsibility to provide them with love, attention, and proper care to help them thrive in their new home. - Health Preparation and Care
Before your puppy starts their journey home, a licensed veterinarian conducts a thorough health examination to ensure they are healthy and ready for travel. Each puppy is:
- Vaccinated
- Dewormed
- Microchipped for identification and safety
We also provide a health certificate confirming your puppy’s excellent condition, giving you peace of mind that your new furry friend is healthy and ready to join your family.
- Choosing the Right Delivery Option
Delivery & Shipping Options
We do not ship puppies via cargo because we want to ensure that our puppies are always in safe hands. While we’ve never had major issues in the past, we prefer alternative methods to ensure your new furry friend travels safely and comfortably.
Here are the delivery options we offer:
- Personal Delivery
Doris and I can personally drive your puppy to you at a rate of $1.00 per mile round trip. In most cases, we meet at a public location in your town, rather than delivering to your home. - Personal Flight Delivery
If you prefer, Doris and I can fly with your puppy in the cabin to an airport of your choice. The cost depends on flight prices at the time of booking, and we will work with you to find the best option. - Flight Nanny Service
We also work with a licensed flight nanny who will accompany your puppy in the cabin to your nearest airport. Prices typically range from $300 to $700, and we’ll confirm the exact cost when booking.
- Airport Pickup (IAH)
If you’d like to fly in to pick up your puppy, we can meet you at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) free of charge.
You’ll be responsible for booking your own flight and an airline-approved pet carrier. Be sure to check with us before booking, as some airlines don’t allow pets in the cabin. - Meeting Halfway
If you’re driving to pick up your puppy, we’re happy to meet you within an hour of our location at no additional charge. Just let us know, and we’ll find a convenient spot.
Important Note About Flying & Diet
If your puppy will be flying, we recommend ordering at least one batch of their raw diet in advance, as it must remain frozen and can’t be sent on flights due to airline regulations. Having the raw diet ready when your puppy arrives will help with a smooth transition.
Let us know which delivery option works best for you, and we’ll be happy to make arrangements!
Shipment Day Protocol
Before your puppy is shipped, we record a video to showcase that they are healthy, happy, and ready to join their new family.
The video will include a close-up of: - Teeth
- Ears
- Eyes
- Coat condition
If you choose to pick up your puppy in person, you’ll have the opportunity to meet them, check their health firsthand, and ask any questions before bringing your new furry friend home.
Delivery Across the USA
We offer nationwide delivery to ensure your puppy arrives safely, no matter where you are in the U.S.
Delivery options include:
- Ground Transportation: In select areas, we can arrange for your puppy to be delivered by train or bus, where you’ll meet them at a designated station.
- Third-Party Couriers: For longer distances, we partner with trusted transport specialists to ensure a safe and comfortable journey for your puppy.
Shipping costs depend on the distance and the courier you choose. Were happy to recommend reliable transport partners or work with a courier of your choice.
