DO WE SHIP ??
NEW USDA
RULES
ALL
"pet" sales must be face to face, buyer can fly in to meet
the breeder at the airport to pick up the puppy or they can send a person they trust to meet the breeder at
the airport to pick up. you can send someone you know to pick up the puppy from me.
Beginning November 18, 2013, I will be joining a very large
number of breeders across the U.S. in no longer shipping pets.
Due to a change in Department of Agriculture regulations for
pet breeders the USDA itself has now MADE IT impossible for most persons who sell pets to
legally ship a pet that the buyer has not seen in person. Violations of this rule carry severe penalties. For our
safety, ALL sales of PETS must take place face to face.
You can have a friend or realative pick up the puppy
for you... that is OK per the USDA.
If you are looking for a puppy to be a
BREEDER then .. please do Contact me.
The new law states if you have 5 females
( be any combination of Cat,dog,gerbil, hamster,guinea pig,ferret,etc ) and ship you must be USDA
Lic.
I will not put my Chihuahua's in cages to
live out their life in.
My mothers will have their pups born in my home, and
pups will stay in my home., they will sit on the couch with me if they want to!
This is not
possible to do under the USDA laws.
Up until this point the USDA lic was for breeders who sold to
Brokers who then sale to pet stores. There reason to stop sick puppies being shipped. But to ship
you must have a Vet. check the pup and have a Health Cert. to hand over to the Airlines. The
Airlines will not send on a pup without it. nor if the puppy is drugged or obviously sick. They will say
NO.
This ruling is going to seriously curtail the choice of
those wishing to buy the pet of their choice unless you are willing to travel to your
breeder of choice regardless of distance. While
we do understand the need to stop those who don't properly care for their animals, we already have existing
state and federal laws for those issues, and should be inforced.
If you would like to help us fight this bad choice of
regulation policy, please contact your Congress person. It is YOUR right to be able to buy a PUPPY or kitten
from whoever you choose and to pick it up personally or have your PUPPY or kitten shipped to you or to meet
your breeder at a mutually agreed upon place to save you travel and expense.
However, you only have that right if it remains OUR right to
offer those choices.
