Puppy Trip


Hi Michael and Friends:

I was sent an email from the Great Pyr Rescue here in Oklahoma. A request had come through their system, but they were unable to help. I made some phone calls and PAWS Chicago will help us with this mom and her babies.

The babies are 5 weeks old.  The person who has this mom and babies is moving. She also recently had brain surgery, so she is very limited on what she can do. And of course she has no money.

Dave and me are leaving tomorrow night to take this mom and her babies to PAWS. Also on the trip will be 4 puppies age 12 weeks from Tina, 22 puppies from Shana, ages from 7 months to 4 months and another 4 puppies from Vian area.

Shana, a rescue from Van Buren Ark is over loaded with puppies and many, many dogs. She needs dog food, which I try to help her out each week. Her ONLY hope is to transport her rescues out of her area. There are no homes.

Next Monday she can send 25 more to PAWS.

The following Sunday, May 6th, Dave and me are transporting to DeWitt New York. 22 Dogs. It is a long trip, but many of the larger dogs can make this trip.

I cannot say how much we need help to make these trips possible. All of you have been the help that has been the wonderful help line that makes it all possible for these wonderful souls to get their forever home.

Dave and me strive to make these trips happen. We know that the ONLY hope all of these babies have is to get them to the humane societies up north.

We will keep all of you posted. And we will send pictures from New York.  We need lots of prayers for a safe trip for all.

God Bless all of you our friends,
