I can ship
your new Shih Tzu puppy to any airport within the continental United States served by
Delta or Continental Airlines. The cost of shipment is an
additional expense to the buyer and usually runs about $275.00 to $325.00.
Shipping outside the continental United States and overseas is available.
However, the cost will be calculated depending upon your location.
The Shih Tzu
is a brachycephalic (short nosed) breed and is particularly sensitive to high
heat. Due to this fact, I will only ship a puppy on Continental Airlines,
with climate controlled conditions, when temperatures are
expected to exceed 80 degrees at any given point in their journey. Since
my puppies are all raised in my home and are not accustomed to extreme cold
temperatures, I also will only ship on Continental Airlines when temperatures are expected to be below
35
degrees at any point along their route to their new home. Arrangements can
also be made to deliver your
Shih Tzu puppy by ground delivery service. The cost for this service will
generally be about $200.00 more than air shipment.
If you are located
within 300 miles (600 miles if you meet me half way) from my home in Denham
Springs,
LA, I can arrange to deliver your puppy personally. Travel charges are
$1.00 per mile, one way. In other words, if you live 100 miles from me and
I deliver your puppy to your door, the charge would be $100.00.
Regardless of the
delivery method,
my only
concern is for the welfare of my babies and to see them safely delivered to a
new loving home. No puppy will be delivered to its new home until it is
completely weaned and strong enough to endure the transport.
