PILOTS N PAWS

I know this is late notice but I have a desperate plea to get three dogs transported from Roxboro NC27573 to Blue Bell Pa 19422 on Sunday, August 30, 2009. . Is there anyway you are available to help. We can make a donation to help out with gas if you are available.They will be gassed if we cannot get them out this weekend. Sorry for the late notice..

Toby is a white male lab/shepherd- around 55 lbs
Riley is a male Setter mix- around 50 lbs.
Katie is a female Pointer mix around 50 lbns.

Rhonda, I'm trying to contact other pilots I've worked with in the past in the hope of setting something up. Best,

Hi Rhonda,

Jane forwarded your post to me. I agree with her that ground is your best bet. Due to the sizes of crates needed for these dogs I'm afraid you're looking at least two separate flights (maybe 3) of multiple legs each. I'm sorry I can't help but my ground support volunteers in the area are already out of town for major shows this weekend. Get in touch with Cheryl at [email protected] as soon as possible to see if she has resources in the area.

Wishing you the best--

If you can get ground transport, by all means take it, but I have to respectfully disagree with Lynnette. As long as these guys get along well enough to travel harnessed to the seat belts, one airplane can take them all. As you know, I've had three this size (plus a fourth, smaller one) in my four-seater with no problems.

I hope something comes up for you! Best,

It's a rare gem who will travel with that many large uncrated dogs at a time. Bless you for efforts that go above and beyond.

Yes, David you have done a fine job transporting (acutually 4 dogs) harnessed on one our coordinated transport. I am happy to say that Toby, Riley, and Katie are scheduled to leave out on Sunday with Pilot John weather permitting. We will have the pups in safe keeping and hoping for a blissful day for air travel.

Thanks David for all your efforts on helping secure these pups safety!! Now will you look at their pictures! : )

Lynnette, thank you for the ground transport contact. I will keep her on file as a possible alternative contact.

As always,
