Raising a Shih Tzu puppy in Alaska
Start right away, because the first 3 months are the most important time for socialization.
Introduce gentle new people, friendly dogs, everyday sounds and short car rides, a little at a time. Puppy classes can begin as early as 7–8 weeks, with healthy classmates and clean floors, as your vet advises. Until your vet says the series is complete, skip dog parks and other places where unknown dogs gather.
What a Shih Tzu puppy costs in Alaska
Listing prices are set by the breeder and are the same nationwide; delivery to Alaska is a flat rate.
For example, a Shih Tzu at the typical asking price of $2,678 with Pampered Ground delivery ($749) comes to $3,427, and every delivery option includes the health certificate and Veterinary Health Report.
Financing is shown as four interest-free payments where it's offered at checkout.
Getting your Shih Tzu puppy to Alaska
From the breeder's arms to yours
Your Shih Tzu can come home to Alaska two ways, and your Travel Concierge plans the trip with you. Because Shih Tzus are short-nosed, they travel only by flight nanny or Pampered Ground, never as standard air cargo.
An approved ground partner drives your puppy to the address nearest you in a climate-controlled cabin.
A flight nanny, usually an off-duty flight attendant, carries your puppy in the cabin from the breeder's arms to yours, same day.
- 1You reserve your Shih Tzu and choose how it travels.
- 2The breeder's vet examines your puppy 3 to 5 days before it leaves; the health certificate and the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection, required by law for interstate travel, are included.
- 3Most puppies are home in one to three weeks, and your own vet sees yours within 72 hours of arrival.
Before your Shih Tzu puppy comes home
A little paperwork, a lot of love
The rabies vaccine protects your puppy against rabies, and Alaska requires it. A licensed vet gives it on the schedule Alaska requires. Keep the rabies certificate the vet gives you; the rules for bringing a dog into Alaska ask for it.
Take your puppy to your own vet within 72 hours of arrival.
Only with Pawrade, you receive a pet insurance policy with no waiting period included for immediate accident or illness coverage, 1 month, with every puppy.†
†NH, NY, RI, SC and TN residents excluded. Activated by calling MetLife; coverage begins immediately following policy activation. See the offer for full terms.
