SHIPPING INFO:
Shipping within the continental U.S. and Alaska is $250, Canadian flights are $275.  Flying the puppies is not as stressful as you might think.  We can ship to some Canadian airports, it just depends on the time of year, please call and ask first. I use a professional shipper and she provides a superior service! All shipped pups come with a travel crate, puppy pack (includes sample of Eukanuba food and starter kit), health certificate, guarantee, complete health record of vaccinations and dewormings. We can only ship on Fridays unless otherwise noted, we make all flight reservations the Monday previous to the puppies departure, I e-mail the flight information to you as soon as I get it back. To make the RSVP I must have your complete name, address and a phone number. Please keep in mind that whoever is claiming the puppy at the airport must show proper identification before they will release the puppy. Please be sure the information you provide to me matches the ID of the claimant, even if your actual address is not the same any longer, puppy crate and ID.

Delivery is available to Rolla, MO/Springfield, MO/Kansas City, MO/Tulsa, OK/St. Louis, MO and a few other towns not mentioned but on a case by case basis for a fee of $30 or less.  This service is either done by me or friends or family that go that direction often.  Right with the summer months I have a special deal for anybody who might live in the Chicago area, I can offer a flat rate shipping to Chicago for $100.  One of the professional shippers we use travels to the Chicago airport to take advantage of their cooler tempatures and extended airport hours compared to the tempatures and hours in St. Louis so it is only available during the summer months. 
 
Some breeders choose to ship by ground because it is generally cheaper but it isn't always in the best interest of the puppy.  Ground shipping can take DAYS from pick up to drop off and the puppy comes into contact with other puppies from all over which may or may not have been vaccinated or properly cared for making all the other puppies more susceptible coccidia, giardia, kennel cough and even parvo.  Several days in transit can also stress the puppy causing its immune system to be compromised making it even more susceptible to disease.  Shipping by air, the puppy is in its own and new individual crate and is only removed in the case of questionable size requirments for its carrier. The puppies travel in a tempature controled pressurized compartment on the aircraft that is designed for precious cargo. The puppy does not travel in the same compartment as the suitcases.  The puppies arrive at the destination the same day and most within hours of being dropped off at the airport and only spend a few hours in transit and are resting up in their new homes by dinner time. 

PAYMENT INFO: You may put a nonrefundable deposit on a puppy to hold it, the balance must be paid in full and all checks cleared before we will ship the puppy, please allow 10 days for checks to clear. We accept PayPal, U.S.P.S. Money Orders and wire transfers as well. If anything happens to your puppy you will be contacted immediately and your money will be refunded or you may choose another puppy

If you plan on sending a check or money order, I highly recommend you send it either certified mail or priority.  This way it is assigned a tracking number and the postal service will track it to assure it doesn't get lost or stolen.
