We still need volunteers for the first 3 legs which are the most important! The situation is becoming very urgent. If we don't get volunteers to at least move them out of arkansas by saturday the transport will be cancelled and the females will be put down by the breeder. 9 of these beautiful dogs will be killed and I'm out of places to ask for help so please talk to anyone you know. This is the female we were going to get before the breeder agreed to release the males. She's still on the transport list to go to another home.  |

The first 3 legs have been filled! Thank you to anyone who volunteered. The shibas will be saved.  We only have one leg 1 of transport c left from Gardner, IL to Valparaiso, IN. Anyone who is still interested in volunteering for the beginning of the trip from AR through MO (dogs are now going through bella vista, AR to get to MO) I'm sure it would be appreciated since one person is driving 324 miles of it. |

It's awesome that you're doing this. I know I'm late in responding but I'm new to the forum and am still browsing. Years ago, I helped create a site dedicated to ground transports for rescue animals: AcmePetTransport Perhaps that site could help you in the future. |
