He is afraid of them, and gets defensive around them. No children should be allowed near him, or to travel with him on this flight. You would NOT know he has any issues until a child approaches him. He should be NO PROBLEM AT ALL!!!! The rescue will meet you at the airport.

The receiving rescue can not do this on the weekend and needs to be done on a weekday. The behaviorist/trainer is in Greensboro, NC

can you please help save him?

He is easily crated and good with other dogs. He has no issue with adults, and likes to ride. No children on flight, please, though.

I could go a bit further south, to somewhere like Dublin (KPSK), if it would help.

Urgent! Ride from Southern WV to Greensboro, NC Oct 19th

This is now URGENT.

This dog has no more money to pay the boarding kennel where he's been living and nowhere to go *except* the rescue in Greensboro, NC. I'm not sure exactly what day he has to leave the facility, but I feel safe in saying the clock is ticking. The rescuer up here is very upset and worried that we can't save this dog.

All we need is ONE short leg from either Charleston, WV, Bluefield, WV or Dublin, Va... The first leg pilot is willing to accommodate anyone who can take the second leg by meeting in one of those air fields. He is going to Greensboro, NC area.

I have emailed about 20 pilots and only 2 have answered. We still have not been able to set anything up for this great dog! I don't know what else to do. Is there any kind soul in the Greensboro, NC or Va or WV area that can graciously take this second leg??
