Hey everyone - as some of you may or may not know, when I'm not busy doing other things, I spend my Saturday nights driving very deserving dogs & cats up the East coast to get to no-kill rescues and forever homes.

My friend Samantha, who helps to run a great rescue called The Last Resort in West Milford, NJ is having trouble filling her dog rescue run for tomorrow - July 11, 2009.

She still needs some people to drive in the following areas:
LEG 9 ~~NEEDED~~Staunton, VA to Strasburg, VA (I-81) 79 miles 1 hr 20 min - 7:30 pm - 8:50 pm
LEG 10 ~~NEEDED~~Strasburg, VA to Martinsburg, WV (I-81) 62 miles 1 hr - 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm
LEG 11 ~~NEEDED~~ Martinsburg, WV to Harrisburg, PA (I-81) 75 miles 1 hr 30 min - 8:00 am - 9:30 am

So if you know of anyone who lives anywhere in/near/around these areas and would be willing to help, Samantha (Sam) would greatly appreciate it.

She's so desperate, she's even offering gas money at this point.

Basically, what you would need to do is contact Sam, tell her you can drive. She'd give you the names of people before & after your "leg" of transport. You would call those people and find out where to meet up.
Show up at the meeting spot at the designated time, pick up doggies from the person you're meeting and then drive doggies to the next meeting spot and hand them off to the next person.

It's like a doogy relay race to freedom (or underground dog railroad if you will).

This week's passengers are two German Shepherds and one Siberian Husky.

If anyone can help out, please contact Sam directly.
Her email is echo0195@gmail.com and her name is Samantha Grieves. You can tell her you're a friend of mine - just say "Denise from Philly with Lady the boxer dog and the daughter with blond hair" and she'll know me.

If you want the whole list of stops and details, you can PM with your email address and I'll send you the whole "run sheet".

If you know anyone else who could or would like to help, please feel free to pass the info along to them.

Muchos gracias!

I can't help now, no car, but I'm not far from West Milford and I love the critters.
When I get a car I'll be happy to participate in this doggie pony express.
