I just sent Miz Libby a note saying I could do either or both
"Akron" > Youngstown
and/or
Youngstown > Monroeville (Pittsburgh)
Let me know if you hear anything.

In an e-mail from Libby ...
I want to thank you all again for helping to get Elliot
here to us and safe…..
I just got back from dropping him at his foster home...
as I get more on how he’s settling in,
I will certainly let you all know.
He’s a very handsome dude!!! And so sweet
Thanks again, without you,
he would have been a research subject!!

I'm Back!!
Sandusky to Akron must have *hauled-BUTT*!
Akron/Cindy got to me On-Time;
and I managed to make Pittsburgh/Monreoville On-Time, too!
I should have taken Cinder - Elliot was a Really Mild & Mellow Fellow!
He didn't want to go potty after 10 minutes of pleading - but DID
inhale a pint of water before we started!
NO problems on the trip - he'd get up every 10-15 minutes and
give me a *nudge* or a *lick* on the ear - *HINT* to
*Pass me a Bisquit*!
Monreoville was a treat -
crossing 11 toll booth lanes with a strange dog!
But he "heeled" right along, stopping at each lane
to let cars & trucks pass - never flinched once!
Another 10 minutes of pleading and he finally did a little pee and
also a loose #2 - then hopped right into Kathy's ride
and off they went!
I Picked up the Kids from Unka Pat's - and grabbed an "extra" -
Cali was going to be alone till 10:00 pm or later while Pat & Joan
went to a wedding - se we all went to the BigLake for a stroll.
KAT was at the top of the stairs >countin noses< when
we came in ...
Got to Dawg #4 and he took off for the tub/shower!
Amy ~ Glad I saw your original post - was a Rewarding & Phunn day!

*snappies* from Elliot's Bus Ride on 6/18/2005
Here's a few of the *snappies* I took while I had
Elliot, the Rescue Shepherd, on Saturday, June 18, 2005.
I picked him up from Cindy - his Bus Driver from Akron to Lake Milton,
a lil town north of and near the Ranch.
First Order of Business -
*Inhale* a fresh pint of Water!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...c/f3983a8e.jpg
Cindy reported he just HAD a pint when she picked him up!
(And he hadn't *pee'd* for at least two hours!)
He >*sniffed*< for 10 minutes; but wasn't In the Mood
to *DO* anything!
Cindy wished him well and WE were off to Pittsburgh
via the Ohio and PA Turnpikes ...
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...0/f3983803.jpg
Elliot hasn't *missed* too many meals;
and he filled up most of the back seat!
He'd go about 10 - 15 minutes, then either *nudge* my elbow or
give an ear *SLURRP* - Dawg-Talk for:
HEY, Bus Driver! I'd lika anudder Bisquit, Please!"
Next Stop = Monroeville (far eastern suburb of Pittsburgh, PA) ...
And an *exciting* crossing of ELEVEN very Active Toll Both lanes
to meet Kathy ...
Thankfully, Elliot walked & heeled very well on a leash -
he *paused* with me at every lane to let vehicles roar past!
Time for a poddy break ...
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...2/f398368b.jpg
Kathy says "Hello" - and <whispers> some encouragement to
*go DO something*!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...d/f398327f.jpg
Elliot (finally) made a damp spot and did a lil #2 -
Kathy "held" while I "bagged" ...
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...2/f3982f1c.jpg
All that stompin thru the tall grass makes ya *thirsty* ...
MORE Water ...

A final {{{HUG}}} and a G-Bye;
his Favorite *Stuffie* safely On Board ...
Elliot <hopped> into Kathy's Ride and they headed east ...
GOOD LUCK finding your FurrEver Home, Elliot!!
You were a GOOD Boy and will make someone a Wonderful Pet!!
There are a few more *snappies* in the ImageStation Album >>>
