Depends on location of pup and its destination. I shipped on from Eastern Canada to Chicago for $250 for flight, $70 for crate, $40 for Vaccination. There also was a $20 dollar fee at pickup for paperwork. This was thru Air Canada.
A friend of mine had one shipped by Buckeye Dog Transport from Ohio to Iowa for $250 plus vet fee. Hope this helps.

Takes a little longer with ground shipment than a plane but if you are some distance from the airport that needs figured into it also.
I am running way behind due to things beyond my control and I have 24 beagles this trip. Sunday the transmission went out in Illinois. Got it back Wed late then picked up a couple beagles and headed to Ohio where I live and I had dogs here to get, got in Thur eve. Well I started out this morning (Fri) after letting everyone out to do their business, get them food, water and made it about 40 miles and the alternator went out. I have a new very strong battery which is probably the only reason I made it back home to unhook the trailer and get to the Chevy dealer. Dealer said it will be late today before they can get to me. Meanwhile I have one customer 600 miles away just chomping at the bit, said they will come after the dog which if they want to drive that is fine with me. I constantly do maintence and anyone I haul for knows that however there are some things I can not control.

I have used Buckeye a number of times, hounds always arrive in good shape,
happy & healthy. Will use only Buckeye in the future.
