*DONE* From Chipley, FL to Stuart, FL (KSUA)

Our rescue organization has agreed to take two labs and possibly another smaller dog from a county shelter in Chipley, FL. It is a 7 hr drive for us which is not feasible for our volunteers and we have been unable to arrange additional ground assistance. The dogs need to be transported from Chipley, FL (not sure of closest airport) to KSUA (Stuart, FL).
We will not commit to dogs until transport can be arranged, but these dogs are on borrowed time, so please let me know asap if you can assist with transport.

Thanks!

I could transport these pups next week if the weather will cooperate. What is the size and weight of these pups and will you be providing crates? I will be flying into KMAI (Marianna, FL).

Wonderful! I will see if I can get someone to pull them for me and hold until you are able to fly. The two labs are around 55-60lbs, still not sure if we can take the little one yet. The dogs are at a high kill shelter so unfortunately I do not have crates to send with them. Is this a problem?
Once I find someone to pull and hold I will let you know.

Jeff,

I was able to speak to the director at the shelter today. She can hold the dogs for us and I have found someone willing to transport them to the Marianna, FL airport for pick-up on Wednesday of next week. Is it still possible for you to transport? Thanks.

I have two crates that should work or can both of these guys go in the same crate? I have an x-Large crate that I use for my 100# Lab and was wondering if these two would fit comfortably I also have one for the little one if he becomes available, please let me know.

As I understand things, I will have one Large Lab and two? small dogs. I am looking at Wednesday for this transport.
