Are you a 501c3: no, but I have a couple of Rescue groups who have been helping me w placement ... This has been a joint effort
Date ready for transport: 4/8 or after
Additional info/situation: "Rudy" was dumped during a snow storm east of Tulsa. he is a sweet dog and now vetted and neutered. a nice family in Midland, Michigan has adopted him ... Now I need to get him there.

There are 2 scenarios... Get him from Tulsa/Pryor, OK to Midland, Michigan Before 4/25 ... OR he already has a ride reservation on GHART Rescue Transport driving from Tulsa overnight & arriving (correction) 4/26 around 9am to downtown Chicago ... So then I would just need to get him from Chicago to Midland, MI on 4/26. See this sweet boy http://youtu.be/foR6StV4fr0

This is my 1st .... Hope I did it right ... THANKS

I could fly him from Keokuk, IA (KEOK)--> Lake in the Hills, IL (3CK) on a weekend prior to 4/24 or
3CK --> KAZO (Kalamazoo, MI) 4/26 or after.
Preferably weekends and weather permitting.

Update ...

Rudy should arrive in downtown Chicago, Anti Cruelty Society, 157 W Grand, around 9am on 4/26 on the GHART TRANSFER bus from OK (unless a plan comes together to get him there sooner from Tulsa w PnP) ...

Looks like the last missing piece of this transport extravaganza is getting him from downtown Chicago by car to airport 3CK.

Just wondering if it might be possible to use PWK, Chicago Executive vs 3CK as it seems to be closer for a volunteer drive from downtown ... we will make this happen regardless... thank you all for your help!

Suggestions ... Please?

Lastly, in the event of no fly bad weather ... What happens to Rudy and/or what kind of plan should I have in place?

THANKS

I love it when a plan comes together ... Lets firm this up ... I am so tickled!

Rudy will arrive in downtown Chicago around 9am on Saturday 4/26/14 at the Anti Cruelty Society on the GHART bus from OK. I will be one of the drivers.

We have a volunteer(name and phone to come) who will drive Rudy, after he stretches his legs to 3CK airport (Lake in the Hills) to meet JohnC who has kindly offered to take him to KAZO Kalamazoo ... or Randy (rthomure) has offer from an airport near Chicago also.... thank you so much!

Lance (Flightyyy) has kindly offered to take Rudy on to Midland, MI from KAZO where his new family will meet the plane. I need the name of the airport in Midland they are to meet you at and which one of you will be transporting him?

Being this is my 1st posting, not sure what else I need to do ... please let me know if there is ANYTHING else I can do to make this go smoothly.

Thanks so much everyone!

I want to suggest something here. I am using 3CK because that is where our plane is based. (Actually it is at 82IS in Huntley, IL, 5 mi south, but we are moving it to 3CK at the end of April)
Anyway, another option is to drive Rudy to Monee, C56-Bult Field, and hand off to Randy to continue to Kalamazoo. About the same drive distance.
I say this as I may have a conflict in schedule now, and you have time for alternate plans.
I will know more later this month.
I will watch this thread to keep up to,date.

Hi Randy,

Would you be able to take Rudy from Bult Field or where ever you want to KAZO on 4/26?

Thanks Paula
