Today I went to a shelter and pulled these four for a rescue and I thought they would bring them out one by one. Nope, all came out together in the cage cart. As you can tell, the terrier was fine with it; the Pomeranian was a little frightened by it; the one chihuahua, couldn’t see anyway; and the last was very upset by the whole new mode of travel. I got them all out and into their separate kennels and they were fine after that, but it did freak them out somewhat at the beginning. After loading it was off to an overnight stop, then on to a boarding kennel for vetting and waiting for a transport to pick them up for their long trip up north. But for these guys, at least it has begun, for some who wait, their day never comes.

Today I loaded up 20 dogs from a rescue and transported them to a Seattle area rescue that really wanted these guys. As they stand a much better chance of getting adopted up there much quicker; after the home checks and applications are completed, it’s off they go. It is a win-win for everyone. As these 20 left, 20 more were being made ready to be pulled from the shelter as now there was room them. After vetting, spay-neuter completed, and a two week isolation period, hopefully they to can go north to be adopted. Believe me, it’s a team effort that all must play their part to make it happen. I am just a link in that chain. Everyone must stay focused on “it’s about the dogs”.
