Getting Your Bernese Mountain Dog Puppy Home

---

 For local buyers, you’re welcome to pick up your puppy directly from our facility. This allows you to meet our team in person, see the environment where your puppy was raised, and ensure everything meets your expectations before taking your new companion home.

The most affordable and convenient way to bring your puppy home is to fly into Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) or Dallas Love Field (DAL)  and return home the same day with your puppy in-cabin.
Most major airlines allow small pets to travel in-cabin for a modest fee. Baggage and pet policies vary by carrier, so please review your airline’s rules before booking.

Important: Each airline sets its own requirements regarding carrier size, health paperwork, pet fees, and     age limits for puppies. Always confirm these details directly with the airline when making your reservation.

For international buyers, additional health certificates and documentation are required. Please contact both us and your airline well in advance of your flight.

•  We’ll personally meet you at DFW or DAL to hand off your puppy.
• Please bring an airline-approved carrier suitable for in-cabin travel.
• Final payment can be made at pickup by cash, card, or pre-arranged electronic payment. Once you receive your puppy, you can check in and board your return flight as planned. 

If flying isn’t an option, we can arrange ground delivery through trusted transport partners.

Rates average $1 per mile for door-to-door service, depending on distance, route, kennel size, and timing.
