END OF TRANSPORT!!  Thank you for helping these dogs on their road to a new life!!

Again, wish they were coming through my neck of the woods because I would have been ready ina heart beat.  I enjoy the transports.

END OF UPDATE…..

Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and moving hounds across state line lovers.

We have a pack of hounds that need to move this weekend to their allotted basset hound rescues and I was wondering if any one is willing to pick up a leg or two if you are in the geographic area.  I have posted the run sheet below.

#3 KoKo is especially close to my heart because she just had her eyes removed due to glaucoma.  She has been blind for awhile so the removal did not affect her that much.

I actually blurred the eyes in this picture because it was hard to look at.  Poor thing must have been in pain but that is all different now.  She was rescued by Helena Poist and networked into ABC rescue up in New York.  Nice work guys!

Subject: Update 2 – TRANS: Carthage, MO to Columbia, PA & Buffalo, NY – Sat-Sun, Sept 29-30

We really need to turn up the gas on this one – it’s Wednesday already and we have a LOT left to do.  Please crosspost like crazy so we can get these dogs moved to make room for more at the shelter!!

PERMISSION TO CROSSPOST TO TRUSTED CONTACTS – NO CRAIGSLIST OR FACEBOOK, PLEASE!!

Here’s an opportunity to help some mill dogs find happiness for the first time in their lives.  These 6 were either released from mills or saved at auction and are now on their way to wonderful rescues in NY and PA.

As always, the legs are flexible – let me know what you can do and I’ll see if I can adjust.  I am assuming I’ll need 2 drivers for most legs, but if you can take them all, that would be awesome!  🙂  And if you’re driving for the Brittany transport and can fit one of these guys on, let me know.  I’ll be syncing my times up with Nancy’s.

Please crosspost so we can get these sweeties started on their new lives and open up some space for other dogs at the Carthage shelter.

Thanks so much –

END OF TRANSPORT!!  Thank you for helping these dogs on their road to a new life!!

Well, I hope some bassethoundtown resident reading this can fill a leg.  If so, contact the transport coordinator as listed above.  (Joan Nickum), wow I don’t know howl these gals get all of this together.  I have been on my fair share and they run like clock work.  I sure wish they were coming through my neck of the woods because I would have signed up in a heart beat.

Good luck KoKo with your new life.  I will try to keep up with you.

More runsheet updates later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma ATB (KoKo’s co-pilot)
