CANCELLED MAY 1-3 ~ MACON, GA to MPLS, MN

Post by deeogee1 » Mon Apr 27, 2009 9:34 pm

WooHoo--ground transport filled for all the dogs afterall. (except Duchess who is being treated for Kennel Cough & therefore
can't travel yet).


For this weekend, we're aiming to move Dudley and will try to move the others next weekend by ground.
Dudley is currently in Good Hope,GA (near Atlanta).This big boy is absolutely gorgeous and super sweet. He is probably about 3 years old weighs around 80 pounds.

We really need help:
Dudley, Duchess and Pearl are all GA dogs who have rescue in MN. 3 dogs in KY need to hitch a ride with them as well.

PERMISSION TO CROSSPOST!!!!

Transport Coordinator:

Transport help is needed for six dogs coming from several different locations and going to multiple rescues. These dogs must move this weekend!!

Most of these dogs were literally spared from death row hours before their scheduled euth date! We need your help getting them to safety here in Minnesota!

Thanks to those able to help thus far. Here's the update:

D73 KCHA 106 nm
KCHA M88 101 nm
M88 KALN 227 nm
KALN KVTI 219 nm Thanks Jim & Mark (both are available)

Hoping for the weather reports to lighten up--and find some help on the front legs. I can always add some of the others since there has been a wonderful response for the last 2 legs.

Came up empty on the beginning legs and weather looks iffy. This may fill by ground though--just 3 legs left, so this may be cancelled too.
