Transport help please :(

[ruckusluvr]

my foster dog Major is having lots of trouble getting to me :(
We need help with transport if anyone can help us!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please help Major the collie get to his foster home in Kentucky. We have already had to cancel transport once because of lack of drivers, and we really don't want to cancel again. We would love it if you would cross-post for us and help us get this boy moved to his foster home.

Major is a 4 year old sweet, shy rough collie. Fully vetted. Tri-State Collie Rescue is a 501c3 licensed non-profit rescue, so all mileage is tax deductible. Photos of Major are available.

ALL legs are FLEXIBLE and can be split into shorter legs if needed. Just email me ([email protected]) and let me know what you can do.

If you needed transport help in CO we would be able to help!

Good luck!

[rannmiller]

Yeah same with NV but I'm way too far away to be of any use to you! Sorry and good luck!

This isn't close enough to me to make it work, but it you ever need help anywhere from san diego, ca as far as grand junction, co or anywhere in between (we're in Las Vegas) we're willing to help.
I hope you find someone!

[ruckusluvr]

thanks everyone. This poor guy needs to get to me so bad. he is not in a good situation. I posted this all over the dog forums, so i hope we can find some more people to help us!

the dog was thought to be about 8 or 9 yrs old. the previous owners sent the shelter in the vet records and this dog is only 4!!! aging horribly :(

yes I'm from ohio so i couldn't really help much. is it possible to have him flown to you?

[ruckusluvr]

yes Todd, but that cost money that we dont have!

it looks like we may have him coming this weekend! one more leg to fill.

Typically rescues are run as non-profits by a group of volunteers. They don't have $$ to throw at things like plane flights, etc.

Transports are usually done by people like Natalie and I that are willing to spend some of our own $$ on gas (and our time) helping out a dog in need

I've done 3-4 hour drives (each way.. 6-8 hours total) to get Dane's into our rescue in Colorado

[ruckusluvr]

we had a lady volunteer to drive 12 hrs!

If my truck was larger (with a camper shell) so I could bring along our girls I'd drive MUCH further. We've been willing to do 2-3 day trips but we have to do something with our girls while we're gone... If we could bring them along we'd do the longer trips
