Of course, we recommend you personally pick up your new puppy to start the bonding process as early as possible. But for those who cannot do so, shipment by air, preferably with Continental Airlines using their wonderful PetSafe program, may be an option. Please read below for more information.
Shipping with Continental:
Below is an excerpt off of Continental’s website:
Continental's PetSafe program will allow pets that previously traveled as checked baggage to experience these safeguards when they travel as cargo, keeping them safe and their owners reassured:
· Dedicated 24-hour Live Animal Desk (800.575.3335 or 281.553.5052)
· Confirmed booking prior to departure
· Weather conditions constantly monitored at all points
· The ability to track and trace the animal from its origin to its destination
· Personal handling in climate-controlled vehicles for connections over Continental's hubs when the animal will be exposed to temperatures above 85°F (29.5°C) degrees for more than 45 minutes
More info is available on Continental'sweb site here. This video that the folks at Continental Airlines put together is also worth checking out.
