dditional Info/situation: URGENT! This poor dog was adopted from a kill shelter, then taken back b/c the husband said they had too many dogs already. Then the wife adopted him again and put him in a kennel to board. Now, he has to be out on MONDAY b/c they are booked and she can't afford to pay for him anymore....the only solution is that he will go BACK TO THE KILL SHELTER -OR- WE GET HIM TRANSPORTED to this nice group in Pennsylvania who will take him.

Can anyone fly this holiday week? I know it is alot to ask but the weather looks nice up until Thurs! :) If you can fly after the holiday, please let me know this as well just in case we can delay! Thank you


Total: 561nm one way. So obviously this has to be 2 or 3 pilots!

Hi - Sort of sort notice, but I could pick up the dog tomorrow at either Tappahannock, VA (KXSA) or St. Mary's County, MD (2W6) and take them to Chester County, PA (KMQS),, which is west of Philly.
I'd like to pick up no later than 12:30 if possible. Let me know if this would help. Weather right now doesn't look favorable for next weekend, but if it changes, could do the flight then as well.

I found out today that I can't get him out of boarding until Monday so we are stuck for now. Yes weather looks bad next weekend. I am trying to find someone to hold him until we can get him to his destination but with the holiday it isn't easy. I will email you back with an update. Thank you for your offer!

Hi - Can we plan on Sunday as a back up in case wind conditions are not suitable on Saturday?
I'm also trying to coordinate picking up another dog at Tappahannock at the same time. That dog is also
coming from GA, from Girard, Ga, and going to Coatesville/Chester County.

Thanks

Hi,

If the doggie hasn't found a ride by mid December, we can fly him the entire way to PA!! We are going there to see family, and we would absolutely love to take him along. Also, we live in the Atlanta (Cobb county area). Is the dog in need of a foster home in the meantime?

Thanks!
