Border Collie - Dallas, NC - Gainesville, FL area*Done*

Post by MuttsMom » Tue Jan 05, 2010 3:31 pm

Border Collie teenager is sitting in a high kill shelter with a January 7th put down date and has to be out by the 6th, Wed. (tomorrow). There's a foster home that can take him but she's in FL. She can meet a pilot in JAX, Gainesville (GO GATORS) :D If someone is available to get him started South I can look for another pilot to meet you as soon as I know how far the 1st pilot can fly.

Thanks!

Hi, all --

I might be able to pick him up in Dallas/Charlotte, but I think I could instead partner with someone who can bring him closer to me. I could then take him down to Perry or perhaps even a little more south to meet someone who could take him farther.

If this would be helpful, let me know.


Happy New Year

Hi David,

Thanks so much for the offer, but pilots around Dallas, NC are few and neither of them can help with this one.

I'm a bit confused here... Are you saying that you don't need me for this leg or that you do?

Getting him down to Atlanta or closer to you is a problem. The 2 pilots that are close to Dallas, aren't available this week. There's someone that's going from Concord - Clearwater on the 10th, so if I can find someone to pull and foster for a few days, one of the Dobi rescuers has offered to get him to the airport in Concord.

Since I'm in the Atlanta area, perhaps I'm the solution to that problem :-)

If there's anyone who can get him closer to me, then I can get him farther south. If not, though, I can get to Charlotte/Dallas and then down toward Augusta or so.

How does that sound?

BTW, what airport is in/near Dallas? Or would we just use Charlotte?

Hi, all --

Current news is that he's scheduled to go all the way to Clearwater with a NASCAR team owner. Yay! Watch for updates.

This cutie is with a wonderful foster family for the rescue that took him in. Thanks to Jodi and Cathy for making this all come together.
