Additional Services
To best accommodate our clients, we provide the following services, at the
following rates.
- Airport Pickup/Delivery: Ship to/from Hartsfield International Airport (atl).
We do ask that shipping arrangements be made at a time when traffic would be
minimal (usually either midday or after 6 pm). The airport is almost 2
hour's drive from Athens, and Atlanta traffic is among the worst in the
country. We recommend flying dogs on Delta
as they have direct
flights almost anywhere. We will not book any flights for your dog
that are anything but non-stop. Note that there is usually a flight
embargo from May through September (country-wide), and that no airline will
ship a dog when the temperatures anywhere along the route will exceed 85` or
go below 20`. Our fee for either pickup or delivery to the airport is
$60.00/trip, and DOES NOT INCLUDE the veterinarian's health certificate
required by law. Any additional vet charges (such as vaccinations,
treatments, medications, etc.) will be charged on your invoice. You
MUST contact us prior to making shipping arrangements in either direction.
Greater Atlanta Pickup/Delivery: On occasion, we are
able to provide either pick-up and/or delivery of boarding/training dogs
(availability depends on daily schedule). We will arrive at your door at
an agreed-upon time that must be arranged in advance. The fee is
$60.00/trip (for example, pick-up and delivery will result in a total $120.00
charge on top of the boarding/training fee). Sunday trips will also result
in the addition of a $35.00 convenience fee.
- OFA/CERF exams: We use a homeopathic vet who takes OFA films
without anesthesia for any dogs needing clearances while in training. A
credit card number is required, and will be given to the clinic to cover the
bill. Please call to get the fees for OFA films. The clinic we
use is in Hendersonville, NC, and the roundtrip will take half of a day.
Transport fees are split amongst the dogs who travel, but is a minimum of
$20.00. Any single dog going for films will be charged$25./hr travel
time. Please call to discuss this trip if you are interested.
- CERF exams can be also be scheduled through a board-certified ophthalmologist
at the University of Georgia, and all paperwork will be forwarded on to you
for submission. Our fee for transporting the dog to and from these
appointments is $25/visit.
- Handling fee: We can enter and run your dog at all AKC hunting test
events and sponsored WC/X tests for $70.00 per test. All ribbons,
rosettes, certificates will be returned to you. We will submit
paperwork to FCRSA at no charge, but will charge the $5.00 fee that FCRSA
imposes for non-FCRSA events.
- Bathing/nail trims: All dogs in training for more than 30 days
receive complimentary baths once a month. Nails are also trimmed at
this time. Basic grooming is also available - fees vary depending
on the size/condition of the dog; please call for a quote.
- Dispensing medications: We do not charge for dispensing medications
such as thyroid replacement, heartworm preventative, flea control products,
etc., UNLESS we use our own supplies (in which case we simply charge our
cost). Please be sure that we have a good supply of these items so
that they may be given in a timely manner.
- Equipment for sale:TriTronics remote training collars may be
purchased from us at competitive prices. We also usually have heeling
sticks and bumpers (orange and white) in stock.
