I do hold puppies for that special time or when you have your home “puppy proofed”. When I hold a puppy, they live with us and our children. I train them as if they were mine! See ‘Testimonials’ page.
We love for people to come to our family farm and pickup their puppy, you can see all the farm animals in the yard and visit with us. It is also the most convenient for us but we do have options for meeting up with you (like half-way or something negotiable). We travel around a lot so there are always ways to get you the puppy you love!!!
Home Delivery
We do offer home delivery, please contact us for a quote on cost. This can range quite a bit depending on where you live and how far away you.
Airline Shipping (You Fly to Us)
We do not ship and just send your puppy off in a airline.
We will, however, meet you at the airport to hand deliver your puppy directly from us to you. It will cost you $0 (zero dollars) for us to drive and meet you at the following airports so you can bring your puppy home. We love to meet all of our puppy owners and are flexible with airline flights. We will also meet your flight nanny if you choose to arrange this on your own. Some people have done this in the past.
-Airports are St. Louis Airport (STL) in St. Louis, MO
-Indianapolis Airport (IND) in Indianapolis, IN
-Mid America Airport (BLV) in Belleville, IL
We Fly to You
Sometimes people prefer not to fly themselves so we do have an option to fly to you. What we usually do is find the best flight cost (hopefully a direct flight, much easier on the puppies) and we fly to you. We meet you at the airport and visit with you to answer any additional questions you have. Sometimes we fly directly back home; other times we spend the night (this is all dependent on flight times and how quickly we can get on the next flight.
The cost for this is only the cost of our flight. When I say “our flight”, meaning I do not fly or travel alone. It will be wife/daughter or wife/son or husband/daughter or husband/son. So, essentially you are buying two adult tickets and the cost of a puppy flight (each airline charges different rates, usually $75-$125 for a carry-on puppy). If you choose to get two puppies, most airlines allow two puppies to fly in the same carrier for no additional fee. This is a great option for people who want two pups or know someone else who wants a puppy, the cost can be split. We have a lot of people who like to do this.
You do not pay for any other fees, like our time/hotel/vehicle/parking/food/etc. Only the actual cost of the two airline tickets and the puppy flight. This sometimes is beneficial to people and makes it a great option. At times, we can get these rates very reasonable. I like to get the early or late flights so they are usually direct and cheaper 🙂 You get the final say on the flights though, we try to work together with you.
Airline Flight Examples (From Us to You)
Denver, Colorado
Roger & Landen (dad/son) love to ski so this would be those two flying out. This is a direct flight.
Las Vegas, Nevada
Roger & Savannah (dad/daughter) like to go out in the mountains and explore. This is a direct flight.
Dallas, Texas
Charity & Savannah (mom/daughter) have met some amazing friends over the years in Dallas so we like to go and visit with our prior puppy owners. We have stayed overnight multiple times in Dallas. This is a direct flight.
Orlando, Florida (or anything Florida)
This is a direct flight. This would be Charity & Savannah…the girls for sure or maybe even a road trip us 🙂
Los Angeles, California (or anything California)
Girls trip for sure (Charity & Savannah), we have multiple puppies in Hollywood, LA and all along the coast. We love seeing the architecture structures and the electric bike tours along the beach. This is not a direct flight so usually connect in Dallas or Phoenix or Salt Lake City.
New York, NY (along the coast)
Charity & Savannah (mom/daughter), we have a lot of friends in the NY area. Charity (me) also used to work for Long Island so the family knows the area well. Savannah loves the big city…just not the traffic and walking (or the train)! This is sometimes a direct flight, it all depends on day/flight/airport.
Boston, MA
Charity & Savannah (mom/daughter) have been quite a few times. Savannah wants to go to Harvard and has visited the university. Probably will be Roger & Savannah since the girls have been so much already to this area. Time for a dad/daughter trip the next time. This is usually a layover in Charlotte.
