I notice there is no transport catagory on this site...
so I put this under dog rescue...

many times I and I know alot of other animal lovers/rescuers.
might not have extra funds to help the overpopulation of furbabies that need to be saved.....
or extra room to foster
but helping transport to me is an easy way to help the homeless/thrown away furbabies who are in desperate need of the homes they so deserve...

each part of the transport is usually broken up in to appx 1 hour legs..
so its not very time consuming, not much on gas, and is very rewarding...

I am posting a transport run here that has already been filled....
as an example of what one looks like...

do you all think this site would be a good place to post future transport runs ??

PS I have removed the contact info as this run is a success and I didnt want any confusion..
thanks !!

Absolutely - this is the forum where transport runs have been posted in the past, and most of us are pretty familiar with them. I have never gotten to participate in one, as most of them seem to end once they get anywhere near here!
