DONE 2 Bassets - Hopkinsville, KY to PA/NJ May 23 or May 24

Post by MidABHR » Sun May 17, 2009 11:04 am

SPECIAL THANKS TO PILOT JOHN LEE FOR MAKING THIS TRANSPORT HAPPENT!
God bless you greatly, John, for all of your help!
S Fitch, Mid-ABHR

Mid-Atlantic Basset Hound Rescue has agreed to take two bassets, Ginger & Buster, from Bluegrass Basset Rescue (KY), who is overloaded with hounds. We have prospective, pre-approved adopters waiting for the hounds.

Both Mid-ABHR and Bluegrass Basset Rescue are 501c3 non-profit organizations dedicated to the rescue and welfare of basset hounds. Susan Intessimone, president of Bluegrass, currently has both hounds at her home. There is an airport in Hopkinsville (zip code 42240) - KHVC.

We need to get them to one of the following areas, and are flexible if a pilot can suggest another airport in the PA/NJ area. I'd be willing to drive out to Harrisburg, PA (Capital City Airport - KCXY) as well.
Allentown, PA (zip code 18103) (Queen City Airport - KJVU)
Quakertown, PA KUKT
Doylestown, PA KDYL
Pittstown, NJ N85
Readington, NJ N51
Morristown, NJ KMMU
Somerville, NJ KMSQ

Both bassets are VERY mellow, housetrained, up-to-date on their rabies, distemper, bordatella vaccinations, and have interstate health certificates. Susan has a crate available - dimensions to be supplied, but these two may very well snooze the entire trip. Both bassets will have collars, leashes, and ID tags.

BUSTER (approx. 45 pounds)

GINGER (approx. 40 pounds)

This transport could also go east - to Lexington, KY to PA.
Have contacted the rescue who has one dog going this way, but would still like to get this transport accomplished this weekend. I've tried both ground transport pleas and air for over two months for Ginger.

UPDATE!!
One of our favorite pilots, John Lee, has offered to pick up the two bassets in Lexington KY on Saturday, May 23rd in the mid-afternoon time frame. We have somone who can drive the bassets up to Louisville, arriving at noon and are making arrangements for someone to hold onto the bassets or drive them to Lexington if needed to meet John at the airport.

John will then fly the bassets into Reading Airport. THANK YOU, JOHN!!!!!!!
