4 mo puppy, White Shepherd puppy needs help!

Post by lustya » Mon Jun 03, 2013 8:39 pm

This puppy was in a shelter and we have a foster home lined up (as well as an adopter eventually, after shots and spayed, etc).
The puppy is in Houston TX now and we have a foster home in Louisville KY. I am hoping to find a couple pilots that could do this Saturday or Sunday this weekend (June 8 or June 9).
We really appreciate any help!

Dog: 1 dog, White German Shepherd, 4 mos old, female
Altered: No, not yet
Color: Solid White
Shots: had first round only, will get the rest in foster care
Good with Dogs: Yes
Good with Cats: unknown
Good with People: Yes
Other Comments: If we can't get the puppy all the way to Louisville, we could maybe stop in Memphis and find an overnight and go the rest of the way the following day (or later in the week).
We can likely find an overnight in Memphis area.

Thank you!

I keep forgetting to add this info:
Weight: ~20 pounds
Crate: not traveling with. She has traveled well in a car to date, never flown.

Thanks! Amy

I could fly the first leg, from Houston to somewhere in Louisiana. I have a rental reserved for the 23rd and the 28th which should give us plenty of time to find someone else to fly the remaining leg(s).

Pilots-
I updated the driver route to go through Little Rock AR. If you can fly any of this on Saturday or Sunday the 15th and 16th we would be very appreciative!

One pilot, Julian, offered to fly her from Houston TX to LA, but that isn't until June 23rd and we are really trying to move her sooner. Also, we would have a hard time getting her all they way to KY in that one day on Sunday. We never can get drivers on a weekday so we have to stick to weekends unless its all pilots.
Thank you!

If you can the dog to Memphis, I can fly it to KY. Either Sat or Sun will work for me. My plane is based at Covington, TN. A few miles N or Memphis.

That would be wonderful!
Thank you. I will hopefully have this worked out in a few days so that I can have details worked out.

Amy,
Instead of your Little Rock Driver going all the way to Covington Airport, I would be happy to meet them at the West Memphis Airport. This would save them many miles and time.
