Shipping Procedure for Jay's Dachshund Home
At Jay’s Dachshund Home, we prioritize the safety and well-being of our puppies throughout the entire shipping process. Here’s an overview of how we ensure your new family member arrives safely at your doorstep:
1. Pre-Shipment Preparation
- Health Check: Before shipping, each puppy undergoes a comprehensive health check by a licensed veterinarian to ensure they are fit to travel. They will also receive any required vaccinations and health certifications.
- Crate Training: We make sure your puppy is comfortable and secure during the journey by familiarizing them with a travel crate before shipping day. The crate is well-ventilated and has soft bedding for comfort.
- Documents: All necessary paperwork, including vaccination records, health certifications, and care instructions, will be included in the shipment.
2. Shipping Methods
- Ground Transportation: For customers within a reasonable distance, we offer safe ground transportation by experienced pet couriers. This allows for more personalized care during the trip and it will cost $150.
- Air Shipping: For longer distances, we ship puppies via reputable airlines that specialize in pet travel. We ensure the flight is direct and stress-free, and all puppies travel in climate-controlled environments for their comfort and the cost is $300.
3. Scheduling Shipment
- After completing the purchase, we work with you to schedule a convenient delivery time. We’ll provide options based on your location and preferred shipping method.
- Once the shipping date is confirmed, we will send you all the relevant details, including the shipping carrier, tracking information, and estimated delivery time.
4. Day of Shipment
- On the day of shipping, we provide your puppy with plenty of water, a light meal, and ample breaks before departure.
- We will update you as soon as the puppy has been shipped and provide tracking information so you can monitor the journey in real-time.
5. Delivery and Receiving Your Puppy
- Upon arrival, please inspect your puppy immediately to ensure they arrived in good health. The puppy may be a little tired from the trip, so we recommend offering water and giving them a quiet, comfortable space to adjust.
- We are available for any follow-up questions or concerns after your puppy’s arrival, and we encourage you to reach out if anything seems amiss.
6. Post-Delivery Care
- After your puppy has settled in, we recommend scheduling a vet check-up within 48 hours to ensure everything is in order.
- We also provide post-adoption support, so feel free to contact us for advice on feeding, training, or care as your new puppy adjusts to their new home.
We strive to make the shipping process smooth, safe, and worry-free, ensuring your new puppy arrives happy and healthy!
