| How Does a Courier Work? I know what a courier/dog nanny is when shipping a dog to it's new home, but, I am curious as to how it works as in financially? I was recently quoted by a breeder who, is giving me his retired biewer stud, a cost of $425 from NE Alabama to SE PA. He even thought that was high so he is looking into other options. How is money transferred? Do I pay the breeder? Pay the courier directly? What safeguards should I put in place to protect myself?

| Can you use an escrow account or cash on delivery? |

| I have used one out of Houston, tx before and he charged $350 so your price isn't overly high

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I used a member here (ILuvMySissy) who is a pet courier and I believe she charged $300 at the time (5 yrs ago). I honestly can't recall how I paid...upfront or after...? Maybe do 1/2 up front and 1/2 after?

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | When I paid the $300, that included the ticket bc she got special rates from the airline bc she either used to work there or her husband worked there or something like that.
