dog transports?

dog transports?

Basically, a large number of dogs have been pulled from kill shelters or puppy mills, and people are needed to transport the dogs to rescues and adopters willing to take them in. Sometimes this involves shuttling dogs halfway across the country, or even flying them in from Greece or other countries with a high number of unwanted animals.

[critters]

Exactly. Thank you, Terrierman.

Only 1 leg needed now--Fredericksburg to Alexandria.

I hope this transport went through. I was already signed up to help a Pointer Rescue transport that started in GA and ended in NY, too. I had two English Pointers and a Lab mix. Boy were they precious! They are all settled in their NY foster homes now.

I would say it went, although I don't hear about them after the fact. I guess it was a big weekend for transports!!
