Additional Info/situation: We are URGENTLY searching for a life saving flight for this weekend!!! If we do not get this newfy pup out this weekend, he will die on Monday! We have no where to place him to keep him safe until transport can be arranged so this flight HAS to happen this weekend!!! The JRT will need to be crated for this flight (we cannot provide a crate as he is coming from a shelter) as he is male dog agro and these are both male dogs.

We have found one pilot who is willing to get them from Youngstown, OH to as far as Buffalo, NY on Sunday. If anyone can help with the second leg of this, or can handle the full trip, please contact me immediately at [email protected]

I might be able to help, but I am not sure if I can get a 90 lb dog into the plane - a few questions:
- what is a "JRT"?
- do you have photos?
- will you have a harness for the Newfy?
- If I can fly them to Saratoga NY, can you pick them up there and drive the rest of the way to Plattsburg?
- Is the first pilot willing/able to fly a bit further to make the legs about equal?

Thanks

A JRT is a Jack Russel Terrier. I can get you photos if you can give me your email. We could probably arrange for a harness for the newfy. And I am in the process of checking into the possibility of the rest of your questions

Hi. What is the status of these dogs? We may be able to meet the pilot in Rochester or do the entire flight to Ohio. What is the charitable organization picking them up in Plattsburgh ? Thanks
