Shipping Process

At Tania Sunshine Cotons, we strive to ensure a safe and comfortable journey for your new puppy when they travel to their forever home. Our shipping process is designed to prioritize the well-being of our puppies and provide peace of mind to their new families.

Shipping Overview

We offer safe and reliable shipping options for our puppies to ensure they arrive at their new homes happy and healthy. Below, we outline the steps involved in our shipping process:

Step 1: Preparing for the Journey

Health Check and Documentation

  • Veterinary Examination: Before the puppy travels, they undergo a thorough veterinary examination to ensure they are healthy and fit for travel.
  • Health Certificate: We provide a health certificate issued by our veterinarian, confirming the puppy’s health status.
  • Vaccinations and Deworming: The puppy will be up-to-date on all vaccinations and deworming treatments appropriate for their age.

Travel Preparation

  • Comfortable Crate: We provide a comfortable, appropriately-sized crate for the puppy’s journey. The crate is well-ventilated and equipped with absorbent bedding.
  • Familiar Items: To help reduce stress, we include familiar items such as a blanket with the mother’s scent and a favorite toy.
  • Feeding and Hydration: We ensure the puppy is well-fed and hydrated before the journey. We also include a small amount of food and water in the crate for longer trips.

Step 2: Shipping Options

Air Travel

  • Reputable Airlines: We partner with reputable airlines that have experience in safely transporting animals. We choose direct flights whenever possible to minimize travel time and stress.
  • Cargo or In-Cabin: Depending on the size and age of the puppy, they may travel in the cargo hold (which is temperature-controlled and safe for pets) or in the cabin accompanied by a pet nanny.

Ground Transport

  • Professional Pet Transport Services: For shorter distances, we may use professional pet transport services that specialize in safely and comfortably transporting animals.
  • Direct Delivery: Whenever possible, we arrange for direct delivery to reduce travel time and stress for the puppy.

Step 3: Coordination and Communication

Scheduling the Trip

  • Contact Information: We gather all necessary contact information from the new owner to coordinate the shipping details.
  • Travel Date: We schedule the travel date and provide the new owner with all relevant details, including flight or transport information and expected arrival time.

Updates and Tracking

  • Regular Updates: We provide regular updates on the puppy’s status and travel progress.
  • Tracking Information: For air travel, we provide tracking information so the new owner can monitor the puppy’s journey.

Step 4: Arrival and Pickup

Pickup Instructions

  • Airport Pickup: If the puppy is arriving by air, we provide detailed instructions on where and how to pick up the puppy at the airport.
  • Home Delivery: For ground transport, we coordinate the delivery time and location to ensure a smooth handover.

Post-Arrival Care

  • Acclimatization: We recommend giving the puppy some time to acclimate to their new environment after arrival. Provide a quiet, comfortable space for them to rest and adjust.
  • Veterinary Check-Up: Schedule a veterinary check-up within 72 hours of arrival to ensure the puppy’s health and well-being.
