Chow Chow Puppy Delivery & Pickup
Distance should not prevent the right family from welcoming one of our Chow Chow puppies home. At Zinald Chow Home, families may arrange pickup or choose from available puppy delivery options based on their location.
Our priority throughout the process is the safety, comfort and wellbeing of your puppy. We carefully prepare each puppy for the journey and coordinate the travel arrangements before departure.
Whether you choose pickup, ground transportation, airline-approved crate delivery or a flight nanny, we will explain the applicable arrangements before your puppy leaves our care.
Our Chow Chow Puppy Delivery Options
We understand that every family's location and travel needs are different. The following options may be available depending on your destination and puppy.
Airline / Crate Delivery
Airline delivery may be available for families located farther away. Your puppy travels using an appropriately sized airline-approved travel kennel or crate and arrangements are coordinated according to the applicable carrier requirements.
When the puppy arrives, the receiving family is provided with the appropriate pickup information for the arrival location.
Ground Puppy Delivery
Ground delivery is a convenient option for families who prefer to have their Chow Chow puppy transported by road.
The final cost depends primarily on the destination, distance and travel arrangements required for your puppy.
Flight Nanny Delivery
For families who prefer a more personalized travel arrangement, a flight nanny option may be available.
The nanny accompanies the puppy during the journey and meets the new family at the agreed airport or arrival location.
Picking Up Your Puppy
Families who prefer to collect their puppy personally are welcome to arrange pickup once their selected Chow Chow puppy is ready to leave for the new home.
Pickup arrangements are scheduled in advance so that we can prepare your puppy and make the transition as smooth as possible.
Before pickup, we will confirm the scheduled date and provide the information you need for collecting your puppy.
What to Prepare for Pickup
- A safe vehicle for your puppy's journey home
- An appropriate puppy carrier or travel crate
- Water for longer journeys
- A leash and collar or harness
- A comfortable blanket or towel
- Enough time to allow your puppy to settle comfortably after arriving home
How Our Puppy Delivery Process Works
We want you to understand what happens from the time you choose delivery until your Chow Chow puppy reaches you.
Select Your Puppy
Choose an available Chow Chow puppy and submit your puppy inquiry. Let us know that you would like to reserve the puppy and arrange delivery.
Provide Your Delivery Information
We will need the receiving person's name, telephone number, email address and delivery destination so the appropriate delivery option can be determined.
Confirm the Delivery Option
Based on your destination, we will discuss the appropriate available transportation method and confirm the delivery cost and arrangements.
Puppy Preparation
Before departure, we make sure the puppy is prepared for the journey and that applicable travel and health requirements have been addressed.
Departure & Travel
Once the arrangements are complete, your puppy begins the journey to the agreed destination. Travel details are provided so you know how to prepare for arrival.
Welcome Your Puppy Home
At the destination, the receiving family follows the provided instructions to receive or collect the puppy and begin the exciting transition into the new home.
Preparing Your Chow Chow for the Journey
Puppy transportation requires preparation. Before departure, we consider the puppy's age, health, destination, weather conditions and transportation method.
Where required for the particular journey, applicable veterinary records, vaccination information and travel documentation are prepared or verified before travel.
Transportation requirements can vary depending on the destination and carrier, so the exact requirements for your puppy's trip are confirmed when the delivery is arranged.
Before Departure
- Puppy's readiness for travel is considered
- Applicable health information is reviewed
- Age-appropriate vaccination records are prepared
- Travel arrangements and destination are confirmed
- Appropriate travel kennel/crate is used when required
- Receiving family information is confirmed
- Feeding and travel preparation are considered
Your Puppy's Safety Comes First
We understand that having a puppy transported can make a new owner nervous, especially if this is the first time you have received a puppy through a delivery service.
Our goal is to make the process understandable and organized while keeping the puppy's wellbeing at the center of the travel arrangements.
Travel plans may need to be adjusted if weather, transportation conditions or the puppy's readiness make the original arrangement unsuitable. We will always prioritize an appropriate journey over rushing a puppy into travel.
Receiving Your Puppy at the Airport
If your puppy's delivery involves airport pickup, we will provide the applicable arrival information before the puppy reaches the destination.
Depending on the carrier and travel arrangement, puppy collection may take place at the airline's designated baggage, cargo or pet-receiving location rather than the normal passenger baggage carousel.
The receiving person should follow the instructions provided for that particular shipment and bring any identification or confirmation information required by the carrier.
We recommend arriving with enough time to locate the designated collection area rather than waiting until the expected arrival time.
When Your Puppy Arrives
Traveling and moving into a completely new environment can be a big experience for a young puppy. Give your Chow Chow time to settle into the new surroundings.
Keep the first day calm and allow your puppy to become familiar with you, the home, feeding area, sleeping area and potty routine without overwhelming them with too much activity.
First-Day Tips
- Offer fresh water after arrival
- Provide a quiet and comfortable resting area
- Keep introductions calm and gradual
- Follow the puppy's familiar feeding routine initially
- Begin establishing a consistent potty routine
- Allow plenty of time for sleep and rest
- Contact your veterinarian if you have health concerns
