I live in Indepence Oregon, which is close to Hillsboro and could do part of the trip.

The following would work for me:

Pick up at Los Banos sometime Sunday afternoon
Foster overnight at my home base in Oakland
Hand off to N24342 somewhere in southern Oregon (perhaps Klamath Falls) Monday morning

Would that work?

If the previous trip doesn't work, I can do Los Banos-Redding...possibly Saturday or Sunday.

I can get the pups to Oakland on Friday, probably early afternoon if that works for you Henry. We have to get a couple of other dogs up to SF to go to rescue anyway. This would save you a trip. I don't have any volunteers on the weekend (tied up with adoption fairs, etc) that can do a run.
N24342 - can you meet in Klamath Falls Monday? If not, I will check with the rescue and see if they can do it.
Call my cell 209-617-2008 so we can work this out. I can't check this board until the evenings but I can answer my phone pretty much any time.
Thanks all! I will keep you posted on the developments.

I live in Bend and can do a leg (Redding or K Falls back to Bend) - if the Independence pilot can get them the rest of the way. I'm off Friday through Monday this week. VFR only.

Pat, could you do Bend to Hillsboro if the Independence pilot (N24342) can't make it? I could probably get them all the way to Bend from Oakland, though that is a pretty long trip.

Laurel, I'm going to be out of town Friday through Sunday, but it's no problem for me to stop off in Los Banos to pick up the pups on my way home on Sunday afternoon, as long as the shelter is open then.

Cheers,
Henry

Henry,

I can do a leg b/w Bend (or K Falls) and Hillsboro - weather permitting. I'm not IFR current, but might be able to grab a buddy that is if necessary. Monday's NOAA forecast for Oregon looks promising.

Thanks everyone!
Henry, pick up at the shelter on Sunday is fine. Call the foster mom, Jolene 209-392-3054 so she can meet you at the airport. She does not have email.
Pat, I'll pass along your number to the rescue, the second number listed in the original post. Her name is Cheryl.
If N2342 can help out, that would be great too.
Looks like we will be getting these 2 cuties on their way to finding their forever homes!

Are both of these dogs already spoken for? One of my employees lost her black pug to a car strike yesterday. Not sure her family wants or needs a puppy right now, but you never know...
