DONE-1 blind boxer: Charlotte area, NC to Arlington area, TX

Post by maddoxbonnie » Sun Jul 04, 2010 12:47 pm

THX pilot Russell---for flying from TX to SC just to pick up our special Ivan Finn & flying him back to TX w/ you safely!!

:geek: We have a sweet blind boxer who needs to travel from NC to TX in order to be saved! He needs y'all to be his eyes & wings to get to TX safely, pretty please! :cry: !! He so deserves a better life than he's had so far :!:
This sweet 60 lb boy will be vetted, current on ALL vaccinations & will travel with collar, leash & a health certificate since traveling across state lines (actually many state lines). He can either be crated or car-harnessed, per your specific request.
We need him to be air-transported ASAP. With a long distance transport for a special needs doggie, we feel that an AIR transport taking 1 day (w/ 3 pilots) will be LESS STRESSFUL for this boxer versus a GROUND transport taking 2+ days (w/12+ drivers/cars)---less people, less travelers,less smells...etc.
Please, please, please help this blind boxer if you can.

Plz contact me if you can be of any assistance-THX, THX, THX!
Also, see below on how I divided this routing into 3 legs. This was just me (a NON-pilot) "playing around" with some destinations as we are obviously flexible in getting him to safety in TX anyhow/anyway possible.

Hi Sallie, My name is Keith Decker. I just joined Pilot n Paws at the flyin breakfast 2 weeks ago and am anxious to become and active volunteer. Re your post, I would be happy to help on the first leg. I live in Rock Hill, SC. just over the border from Charlotte, so Lincolnton is not far at all. I'm a retired airline captain and own my own airplane, so my time is pretty much open. I'd really like to help. Let me know!

Hey Keith,
I just sent you a personal email.
And sure, we'd love your help on the 1st leg. Now we just need 2 more pilots for this special boy :)

I am glad to take Ivan from SC to TX. I will leave this weekend, the 17th or 18th, probably Sunday due to weather, and pick him up about noon local time and bring him back to texas. My home airport is Grand Prairie, GPM.
