Are you a 501c3: Pending
Additional Info/situation: One dog is located at a HIGH kill shelter and other dog is located at a different kill shelter. We appreciate any help in getting these two dogs to safety. Oreo, the spaniel was due to be transported last weekend. Due to a pilot needing to cancel the day before transport because of a family emergency, the transport did not take place. Thank you!

I can possibly help on September 1 or 2 from Minneapolis to a point 3 hours SE ie IA or northern IN or IL. If they can fly together uncrated, I can take both if I can find a helper to fly along which I think I can. Otherwise, I have a large crate I can fit in the back of my plane for one or both.

Laura

Hi Laura, that is fabulous! Thank you. As the dogs are coming from two different sending shelters, I do not know how they interact together. If it would help, I am happy to help locate a second crate that could be borrowed locally. Could you please give me a call at 978 766-1464 so we can work out some details? Thank you again!

Joyce,
I should be able to help out this weekend also, just let me know......Matt

I don't have access to an airplane but I am willing to DRIVE approximately 150 mile radius of St. Louis. If these dogs can travel together and if you can get them here (St. Louis area) by Thursday (8/29) morning, I am driving from St. Louis to Madison, Wisconsin, and they can come with me. Otherwise, I can help out after Sept 8. Good luck!

Hi Diane, thank you for your very kind and generous offer to drive these 2 doggies! We are all set for transport this weekend except for the first leg of the trip (KY to IN). I am sure we will be reaching out to you when you are back. Thank you again!

Hi Laura, I had hoped we were able to connect prior to this post. We are all set for this transport to take place on Saturday except for the first leg from KAAS (KY) to Frankfort, IN. Thank you very much for your kind and generous offer!

Derek and Matt, I can not thank you enough! Hopefully, the weather cooperates.

I can fly the Campbellsville to Frankfort leg Saturday morning, August 31, weather permitting (VFR).

Jon, Derek, and Matt, I can not thank you enough for getting these doggies to safety! And of course the doggies are really thankful that you have provided them transport to their new and better life. We could not have saved them without you!
