PERMISSION TO CROSS POST FAR AND WIDE!!!!!
URGENT TRANSPORT!
Transport for 5 dogs
Shelbyville, KY to Falconer, NY
Saturday March 15, 2008

Hello,

We’re trying to move 5 dogs (possibly more) this weekend from the well past, packed Shelbyville shelter. Things are at critical mass at the shelter and these dogs are desperate to move! Unfortunately, the shelter is a small, rural shelter with few resources so they do not have collars and leashes for these babies.

Please let me know ASAP if you are able to help. Also, if you don’t think you can fit all the dogs in your vehicle, let me know and I will find another driver.

Please provide me with the following information:

Molly, I should be able to do leg 5;Bedford Heights, OH to Ashtabula, OH. I'll let you know asap!

FILLED! Thanks Angie!!!

I got the e-mail updates this morning and I see that it's running a little behind.
I have my camera so I'll get pictures to you!

[mugsy]

Good, because I don't think anyone else did!! I want to see these babies.

I would plan on 30 minutes behind...that's been the way the entire run. Everyone is raving about them. Morgan is a big baby who wants to play, Sandy sleeps in her crate, Louise is just a love bug and Squirt is just that and Tater Bug is a bit nervous, but, warms up and wants to sleep in your lap.

I can't wait to hear from Dawn about how she likes them.

[pitc9]

Any word from Dawn on how they're doing?

I loved LOVED Tater Bug, omg Molly.... he was tied to a seat but shortly after getting on the freeway he wiggled his way out of his harness and promptly found a spot on my lap and never moved the rest of the way.
Louise never moved from my pass seat. Morgan and Sandy were tied up in the back and Squirt was tied to the back of my seat and laid his head on my arm rest and nudged my arm the entire time.

Once I stopped and let them out Sandy got snarley with Morgan over the water bowl but that was the only trouble that I had.

I hope they all find great homes soon!
I took a few pictures, I'll up load them soon!
