Shipping & Pickup
Convenient Puppy Pickup
At Doxie Dachshund Puppies, we warmly welcome local adopters to our home for a personal puppy pickup experience. Join us on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 4 PM, where my wife and I will be thrilled to meet you. During your visit, we’ll review your puppy’s health records and provide essential training tips to help you get started. We also encourage you to spend quality time with your new Dachshund to foster that special bond before you head home.
Reliable Shipping Solutions
For our non-local families, we offer a trustworthy shipping program to safely deliver your Dachshund to your doorstep. We partner with reputable pet transportation services that specialize in both cabin and cargo shipping. Our preferred method is cabin shipping, as it ensures your puppy travels in the safest and least stressful environment possible.
Before shipping, your puppy must be at least 10 weeks old and fully vaccinated. Shipping costs can range from $200 to $450, depending on the method and distance. Throughout the journey, you’ll receive regular updates from the shipping company to keep you informed about your puppy’s travel.
Whether you opt for in-person pickup or shipping, our goal is to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Reach out to us today to begin your journey towards welcoming a new furry family member into your home!
Cabin Shipping Process
-
Choosing Cabin Shipping: Cabin shipping is our preferred method for transporting puppies because it allows them to travel in the cabin of the aircraft. This method minimizes stress and ensures a safer journey.
-
Booking the Flight: Once you decide to proceed with cabin shipping, we coordinate with a reputable pet transportation company to book a flight that accommodates your puppy. We ensure that the flight is direct whenever possible to reduce travel time.
-
Health and Age Requirements: Before shipping, your puppy must be at least 10 weeks old and fully vaccinated. We provide you with all necessary health documentation, including vaccination records and health certificates, to ensure compliance with airline regulations.
-
Preparation for Travel: We prepare your puppy for their journey by acclimating them to their travel crate. This crate is specifically designed for air travel, providing a safe and comfortable environment. We include familiar items, such as a blanket or toy, to help reduce anxiety.
-
Day of Travel: On the day of the flight, we will transport your puppy to the airport and ensure they are checked in safely. You will receive updates regarding the flight status and any important information related to the journey.
-
Arrival and Pickup: Once your puppy arrives at the destination airport, you will be notified. We recommend arriving early to ensure a smooth pickup process.
-
Post-Arrival Support: After your puppy arrives, we’re here to offer guidance and support as you help them adjust to their new home. We provide tips on settling in, training, and health care to ensure a smooth transition.
Our cabin shipping process is designed to prioritize the safety and well-being of your new Dachshund while keeping you informed every step of the way. If you have any further questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out!
