Welcome To Our Site...........When Only The Best Will Do
We realize that you want to own a puppy and that it may not be convenient for your to travel to
Erie County Pennsylvania. However, this is not a problem. We will ship your new baby puppy to
the closest airport to your hometown in the continental United States. Of course, a shipping fee
will be attached to the purchase price of your puppy. Of course, we will make the decision to
use the most safe, economical and efficient means to ship the new puppy to you. If you the
buyer has an alternate means of shipping, we will generally comply with this request if we can
do so legally. Our choice of carriers may vary or be subject to change without notice if advised
or instructed by the Transportation Security Administration, Federal Aviation Administration or
the U.S. Department of Agriculture, relating to the shipment of your puppy or any other laws or
circumstances implemented by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and it's
components. However, we will deliver your puppy to you anywhere within a radius of 50 miles
from our physical location for an additional fee of $2.00 per mile. The fee is calculated utilizing
the most direct traveled route from our location to yours and the ending odometer trip setting
reading rounded down to the whole mileage. If you wish to purchase a puppy you must agree to
the terms of our contract.

We reserve the right to use the following professional pet shipping services, exclusive from a
commercial airline agency (Please visit the below links directly or contact us to obtain an
estimate):

Some of the Shipping considerations that we will take into account prior to shipping your
puppy are the following:

Your puppy must be at least eight weeks old and must have been weaned for at least five days.
Cages and other shipping containers must meet the minimum standard for size, ventilation,
strength, sanitation and design for safe handling. (Sky kennels furnished by the airlines meet
these requirements.)

- Your puppy must not be brought to the airline for shipping more than four hours before
departure. (Six hours  is permitted if shipping arrangements are made in advance.)
- If your puppy is less than 16 weeks of age are in transit more than 12 hours, food and water
must be provided. Older dogs must have food at least every 24 hours and water at least every
12 hours. We will provide the airlines with written instructions for food and water must
accompany all animals shipped regardless of the scheduled time in transit.

- Your puppy may not be exposed to temperatures less than 45F unless they are accompanied
by a certificate  signed  by a veterinarian stating that they are acclimated to lower
temperatures.

- It is against our policy to ship your puppy by C.O.D. (Cash On Delivery)  No exceptions.

Because each airline establishes its own policy, we will check with the air carrier for any
updated travel requirements you intend to use. The following are some provisions we will
likely encounter during the process of shipping the puppy:

- Airlines generally require health certificates from all shippers. We will have a licensed
veterinarian examine the puppy within ten days prior to shipment and issue a certificate
stating that your puppy is in good health.

- Your puppy will likely be shipped as cargo if unaccompanied, and many airline cargo
departments employ specialists in the movement of animals.                                       

- Animals must always be shipped in pressurized holds. Some airlines allow the kennel to be
carried in the passenger cabin as carry-on luggage if it fits under the seat.  This, likely will
not be the case unless you are flying here to pick up your puppy. Although, it will be your
responsibility to make prior arrangements and/or contact the airline to see if they will allow
your puppy to travel with you in the passenger area.

In addition to compliance with federal regulations and airline company policy, there are a
number of precautions that we will take to ensure the welfare of a shipped puppy.

- Before traveling, we will accustom your puppy to the kennel in which it will be shipped and
will make sure that the door latches securely.

- We will not give your puppy solid food in the six hours prior to the flight, although we will give
a  moderate amount of water and a walk  prior to the flight. If you purchase the puppy, it is
recommended that you also walk the puppy a little after the flight

- We will not administer sedation to your pet without the approval of a veterinarian and without
first consulting you for approval, and if recommended by a veterinarian and approved by
yourself, we will provide a test dose to your puppy before the trip to gauge how the pet
will react.

- We will reserve a space for your puppy in advance, and inquire about time and location for
drop-off and pick-up.

- We will write your name, address and phone number on the kennel cage, and make sure your
puppy is wearing a tag with the same information. We will also provide a temporary tag
showing your destination address and phone  number.
