Transport Saturday 10/15 Greenwood, Sc To Lexington Park, Md - 3 Legs Needed!!!

I'm sorry that the needed legs are not closer to me. I would be glad to help.

Thanks Logan. It is not looking good at this point. We have crossposted heavily all night with no response. Poor little Pongo is stuck in a shelter in Greenwood, SC because we can't fill the Durham, NC to South Hill, VA leg and the South Hill, VA to Richmond, VA leg. Everything else is filled. The 2 heartworm positive girls are stuck in a South Hill, VA shelter. It is heartbreaking and very frustrating to know that we can help them but can't get them near us. I live in Southern Maryland and am driving down to Fredericksburg to pick Pongo up. The girls were going to Chesapeake, VA and the PA fosters were driving down to pick them up on Sunday. We were boarding them overnight in Chesapeake. Pongo is? coming on up to Maryland. So sad!!! My daughter's homecoming is Saturday night. I already made the commitment to go to Fredericksburg for Pongo. My daughter is very understandable about rescuing animals. I can just squeeze Fredericksburg into the timeframe I am working with. I would normally "bite the bullet" and drive all the way to Durham. I have done that before for other stuck transports. I just can't this time with her Homecoming. Dang!! Times like these is when single parenting is a bummer!! I can't be in two places at the same time.

Is it still just a transport for pongo? if you want to send me the address of the durham one...if i were to be able to make it up to durham, might as well go to richmond. let me know if it's still just the one dog that needs the transport...i got a little confused when you mentioned the other two...

i'm going to look on mapquest and see how far it is to durham....

Ok, it's only just over a four-hour trip. I may be able to do this. I could make it a mini trip, and, do something else once I got to Virginia. There are a couple of things I need to find out, though, before I can say yes for sure. Let me sortof brainstorm and find out how much the gas will cost me and if I can get a friend to make the trip with me. I'll let you know, though, as soon as possible. The trip isn't til saturday, though, right?

edited: so tell me me what would be needed for the two other dalmatians?

Yes, the transport is scheduled for Saturday. Angela Wallace, the backup transporter, is now handling the transport since Debbie Kidd (our Founder) had to go out of town. Contact Angel directly. Her email address is [email protected]. The other 2 girls are stuck in South Hill. I'm not sure what Angela is going to be able to do about them, if anything. Pongo is the only one that will be coming up the coast from South Carolina. He is an 8 mo. old Dal pup. Debbie asked me to help crosspost heavily for Angela. Thank you for attempting to help us. I know your schedule is hectic with starting a new job and everything. I wish you the best!!! and thank you for trying to help Pongo!! We appreciate it and I know he would!

Finn's Mom:

We just filled the Durham, NC to South Hill, VA leg and Heide (she lives in Efland, NC) knows a lady that can probably do the South Hill to Richmond leg. Looks like you don't have to go out of your way this weekend afterall, but thank you for offering and I will definately keep you in mind as we have lots of transports coming up from the South. What part of NC are you from?

Ok, awesome! I'm glad it's all covered! YAY! I just emailed Angela, too!

Thanks for updating us, though!

Hello All,
Angela Wallace here, Transport Coordinator for Pongo and Company! We have filled the Durham to South Hill but have not yet confirmed South Hill to Richmond to please keep cross posting. We're also still working out the first leg of Greenwood, SC to Spartanburg, SC. The facts have gotten a little confused here. The two female Dals are coming out of Aiken, SC and will start the transport in Greenwood with Pongo. The females are going to South Hill, VA with Pongo continuing to MD.
Hopefully we will be successful and we'll have moved 3 Dals to safety this weekend!

NEVER GIVE UP!!! We still have time!
Angela (Mom to Dals, Warlock & Randi)
