| We received Bella via a plane from Florida to Connecticut. She was fine, the airline baggage people all just loved her. Due to her size she was put inside the cabin.

| I guess I would consider it if I felt like the puppy was big enough. I'm scared to death of putting my older dogs on a plane though! I'm such a worry wart!

| I would never ship a puppy, nor would I buy a shipped puppy. I don't think there's really anything wrong with shipping, depending on the condition of the puppy.. but I would hate to imagine being stuffed in a little cage in the dark where the cargo area is for hours! Plus, if I ship a puppy I cannot see what kind of family it's going to or ever meet the family and if I were to receive a shipped puppy, I couldn't have gone to see the puppies environment beforehand. |

| We had Dozer (our dogue de bordeaux) shipped to us from Oklahoma. There are no ddb breeders close (it's a rare breed & breeders are few & far between) so we had to. He was 25lbs when we got him though. However, I would never ship a yorkie or any small dog. |

| No we home check and want to meet the people face to face to see how they react with any puppies or dogs we rehome. Who knows who you could be passing these pups to if you don't check them out thoroughly |

| Mojo came from a breeder in Brazil, he was 4 months and 21 days, weighted 5 lbs. He didn't even need any medication for stress...besides being extremelly hungry and thisty, he was just fine when he got here...so i would definetely ship a puppy as long as he'she will be going to a good home and everything is done properly keeping the puppys health and safety as the main thing.

If I was a breeder, I would not. I think it would be more of my personal piece of mind.
