Hey! I'm interested just for statistical info, even though I don't ship, in cabin or cargo. My main reason for this is that I want to meet the new family face to face. It keeps my puppies in close proximity to me and since I offer free grooming for the life of the puppy it allows me to see them on a regular basis.
