CANCELLED MAY 1-3 ~ MACON, GA to MPLS, MN
Posted: Mon Apr 27, 2009 9:34 pm
WooHoo--ground transport filled for all the dogs afterall. (except Duchess who is being treated for Kennel Cough & therefore
can't travel yet).
For this weekend, we're aiming to move Dudley and will try to move the others next weekend by ground.
Dudley is currently in Good Hope,GA (near Atlanta).This big boy is absolutely gorgeous and super sweet. He is probably about 3 years old weighs around 80 pounds.
We really need help:
Dudley, Duchess and Pearl are all GA dogs who have rescue in MN. 3 dogs in KY need to hitch a ride with them as well.
PERMISSION TO CROSSPOST!!!!

Transport help is needed for six dogs coming from several different locations and going to multiple rescues. These dogs must move this weekend!!
Most of these dogs were literally spared from death row hours before their scheduled euth date! We need your help getting them to safety here in Minnesota!
