Hi All. There is, yet again, another transport going up north. Seems like the transport organizer always needs people in the northern part of Ohio and further.

Anyone able to help out this weekend? TIA!

FIFTEEN DOGS ARE DEPENDING ON THIS RUN, AND I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO LEAVE ANYONE BEHIND--PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!!

I have read and understand the guidelines for drivers at http://www.openarmspoundrescue.com/guidelines.html. Yes/No


EACH PASSENGER MUST TRAVEL WITH AN INDIVIDUAL HEALTH CERTIFICATE AND A RABIES CERTIFICATE SIGNED PERSONALLY IN INK BY A LICENSED VET. THESE PAPERS SHOULD BE IN AN ENVELOPE CLEARLY LABELED WITH THE DOG'S NAME AND THE NAME OF THE RECEIVING RESCUE. DO NOT PUT MULTIPLE DOGS ON THE SAME PAPERWORK. S/HE MUST ALSO HAVE A COLLAR, WHICH MUST BE LABELED WITH THE DOG'S NAME AND THE NAME AND CONTACT INFO OF THE RECEIVING RESCUE. S/HE SHOULD ALSO HAVE A STURDY LEASH SUITABLE TO HIS OR HER WEIGHT. THIS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE. DO NOT SEND A DOG ON THE TRANSPORT WITHOUT AN APPROPRIATELY LABELED COLLAR AND A PROPERLY LABELED ENVELOPE WITH THAT DOG'S (AND ONLY THAT DOG'S) PAPERWORK. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE RECEIVING RESCUE TO WORK TOGETHER WITH THE SENDING SHELTER AND/OR BOARDING FACILITY TO MAKE SURE THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN PREPARED PRIOR TO TRANSPORT.


DOGS CANNOT BE TRANSPORTED IF THEY SHOW ANY SIGNS OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE, e.g. COUGHING. ANY SHELTER VIOLATING THIS POLICY WILL BE BARRED FROM SENDING DOGS ON FUTURE TRANSPORTS, SO DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! DOGS GOING TO CANADA MUST NOT BE ACCOMPANIED BY ANTIBIOTICS FOR ANY SORT OF INFECTION. IF A DOG IS TRAVELING WITH MEDICATION OF ANY OTHER KIND, WE MUST HAVE AT LEAST 48 HOURS ADVANCE NOTICE IN ORDER TO CLEAR THEM WITH THE VET AT THE CANADIAN BORDER.

THE FINE PRINT: As a volunteer transport coordinator, I am dependent on what the senders tell me about our passengers' temperaments. The very nature of rescue transport creates some risk for those who participate in it; even a good-natured dog may find it stressful to be passed from stranger to stranger and cooped up with unfamiliar dogs, and in consequence may act in uncharacteristic ways. Neither I nor Open Arms Pound Rescue can accept liability for any accidents or incidents that may occur during the transport.
