Some of you are familiar with me already, but for those who are not, I am a volunteer with National German Shorthaired Pointer Rescue living in Massachusetts. Through the course of events, I have become a 'go to' person for transports of shelter dogs via PilotsNPaws. Not only with my rescue friends, but with some of the pilots that send other requests to me.

I guess it's because I have been somewhat successful in moving dogs where they need to be across the country. Thanks of course to you guys :)

National German Shorthaired Pointer Rescue has requested that I assist in moving dogs out of Sioux Falls area. These dogs are a result of a puppy mill bust that occurred not long ago in that area.. there are 42 dogs going to all corners of the lower 48 AND Canada is taking 4 or so (Toronto area). Dogs were seized by the humane society and have been socialized and handled.

Connecticut GSP Rescue asked me what the chances were of getting 2 to them.

Proposed route (flexible of course)
KY14-KCID (Sioux Falls SD- Cedar Rapids IA) 241NM
KCID-KPWK (Cedar Rapids, IA- Chicago, IL) 174NM
KPWK-KBKL (Chicago, IL- Cleveland, OH) 281NM
KBKL-KSEG (Cleveland, OH- Selinsgrove, PA) 222NM
KSEG-KDXR (Selinsgrove, PA- Danbury, CT) 157NM


DATES ARE FLEXIBLE BASED ON PILOTS AVAILABILITY AS SUCH, IF YOU CAN TAKE A LEG (even if someone has stepped forward, could you please respond? Again, there are 42 dogs seeking rescue out of this area)

These dogs will be wearing harnesses so that they may be tethered in the back seats, they will be traveling with health certificates (per D.O.T. regulations) veterinary records, food for contingency (on the off chance a leg is grounded if one pilot can't do the whole route) and perhaps a toy or two (we sent them to the triage center when the humane society seized them) Average weight would be 60# per dog.

Any thoughts or assistance would be greatly appreciated. Not going to be able to sleep if I don't try right?

As I do not always receive notification of mail here, please reply to [email protected] and refer to Sioux Falls-CT in the subject line (I have a feeling that my inbox is gonna get scary these next few weeks!)

Thank you so much for your consideration and thank you for choosing rescue
