Transport options

 

Where there's a will, there's a way!  That's how we feel about helping you get a puppy from us.  We don't want our location to hinder you, if you want to buy from us. We try hard to find an affordable and safe way to get your puppy to you.  We recommend and invite you to travel to our home and meet us and our doggie family in person. Some people are driving to our home or flying to Springfield airport which is just under 80 miles/1-1/2 hrs from our home.  We are happy to meet you at the airport for a travel fee of $150, as long as the timing works out for both of us. Car rentals are available to/from Springfield airport and might be an affordable option for same day rental, if you are flying into Springfield. I've seen rates as low as $38 for same day return.  If driving here from out of state, we are happy to help you with the logistics.

 

We offer different transport options and the fee will depend on the method, distance and other factors.  Prices currently start at $350 for ground transport. We offer the option to pick up in Colorado for most litters.  Inquire for availability.

 

If there is a single puppy or only a few puppies to transport, fees will most likely be greater. We might fly them in-cabin by air, personally delivered - not shipped in cargo. The most affordable option is normally for you to fly in and out the same day and have us meet you at the airport (a trip charge might apply).  We might be able to transport for you to Colorado for the starting cost of a non-stop round trip airfare out of Springfield airport.  When the puppy is flying, there are a few extra expenses such as: a puppy airline ticket (~$95-150), travel bag, etc., as well as our trip charge to Springfield (see above). Keep that in mind as you are pricing the airfare.

​

We are exploring other transport options, as we realize not everyone is able to come to our location. This is a work in progress and we are open to your suggestions.  In addition, we are beginning to work with other people who have been able to transport for us along the I-70 corridor between Missouri and Colorado.  These are mainly other dog show exhibitors who are coming/going from/to a dog show somewhere else in the country.  Fees will vary depending on what they charge and where we are able to meet them. We hope to connect with more of these people to offer more transport options to more locations.  We like to travel and might be able to transport personally to your location, if you want to pay some of our expenses. :)  Let us know where you live and maybe we'll find a transport option for you!

 

If you are not able to pick up your puppy the week s/he is available, there may be a boarding/training fee (currently $5 per day) added, in addition to the transport fee.
