Any pilots in the east TN/North Carolina area want to team up on this one? I could pick the dogs up from Henry County (KPHT) and take them in the neighborhood of Livingston, TN (8A3). I don't have time to do the entire flight to Piney Flats/Bristol TN area on Saturday.

Wonderful news!

Also, the shelter is wanting us to take another female pup that is about 6-7 months old, I don't know what the weight limit is, but they are planning to euth this dog in the am.

Thanks!

Also, I don't know if it would be easier we could pick them up in Greeneville TN airport as well.

How much does each of the dogs weigh?

[boudreaux]

Jeff,

Corresponding with the rescue person in Paris right now.

The adult lab I will guess 50 pounds. 5 puppies, the fluffy one is going to weigh 15-20. The other 4 probably 10-15 pounds,

But that is a guess from photos.

I am waiting for Becky to get back to me on actual weights and I just emailed her!

Thanks!

Their total weights isn't a problem...I'm just trying to figure out how they might best fit in the different size crates I have.

[boudreaux]

Ok, just got off the phone with Becky, her contact info is 731-333-0796, either she or her husband will bring the pups to the plane Saturday.

Boots, the adult lab is 50#
corgi mix is 5#
Princess, the fluffy dog is 20#
two shep x, 15-20#
dane pitx, 15#


Thanks!

Hello Jeff,

I haven't heard back from you, so trying to get the time for animal control to bring Boots, the adult dog and the puppies,

thanks!

If you'll note on my first reply I was looking for help from another pilot on this flight. I don't have time to do this flight by myself on Saturday or Sunday...my plane is too slow/distance is too long. If another pilot doesn't post, I'm afraid I can't help you this weekend. We could shoot for next Saturday though.
