Wow! That is really more like an airlift with all those pups. Will likely require about 4 legs and multiple planes per leg. I also think it could be very difficult to complete in one day, so you might be needing overnight assistance as well. This is a great effort you are undertaking, and I would love to help with last leg as I am based in the NYC area.

Let's see what we can do!

Thanks for the reply Doug. I know it sounds almost impossible but I am willing and able to do whatever it takes to save them. Sending rescue is working so hard and getting them vetted now. But such a long way to go! So splitting up is fine if need be! Thanks for helping in ANY way.

Gina :D

This transport is a total of 820NM from KMEM to KCDW (Caldwell, NJ). I would suggest breaking it into 4 legs, about 200NM each. One proposal: KMEM - KBWG (Bowling Green, KY, 208NM), KGWG - KDWU (Ashland, KY, 199NM), KDWU - KCBE (Cumberland, MD, 195 NM) and KCBE - KCDW (Caldwell, NJ, 220NM).

It may be possible to do in one day, if departure is early enough, but I don't know if that is too much stress on the puppies. Alternatively, you could try to find boarding/fosters near one of the transfer points.

Depending on the size of the puppies and the planes available, I suspect we will need 2 - 3 planes per leg.

Best,
Doug
