Additional info/situation:
Sweet Duke is a black dog that was lucky enough to find rescue. And we have transport planned for him by ground this weekend. But we've just learned that a transport is leaving out of Sikeston, MO, on Saturday morning heading to the same rescue. If we can get Duke to Sikeston (or even close) by Saturday morning, he can catch a ride with the other Labs. I am open to suggestions about the legs of this trip - I know my first leg is probably a little ambitious. :) Anyway, thanks for all you do!!

Thanks, Jim!! I need to check on the timing - hoping she can adjust it some. How far the other direction could you go? I have a feeling I'm not going to have any takers on the Houston to Greenville leg.

I did not know the Lab was starting out in Houston. I wonder why the rescue was split into two post??

Because I only know one pilot who has big enough iron to fly more than 500 nautical miles. :) I'll call you in a bit.

I flew Duke to Sikeston, MO on July 11. By now, he is on his way to Chicago for adoption. He will make someone a great family pet.
