Default Baron needs to get to GA from KY

Help get Baron to Georgia


This is Baron’s location and contact information:

Shelby County Animal Shelter
266 Kentucky Street
Shelbyville, KY 40065
Phone: 502-633-0009
Fax: 502-647-9214
animal.adopt@shelbycountykentucky.com

Baron needs to get out of the animal shelter and to Georgia as soon as possible. The shelter is running out of room. Baron has a committed rescue group, Southern Cross German Shepherd Rescue, and a foster home to come to. He just needs to get to Georgia. If Baron can get close to Athens, Atlanta, or Clarksville GA. he will be on his way to his new life. Baron has lost his home of 8 yrs. and is very sad and afraid in the shelter.
Can you please help Baron?

I took the liberty of typing up a preliminary run sheet. I hope you don't mind. I can probably do at least one of the knoxville legs. I wish I could do more, but money is pretty tight right now and I have 6 mouths to feed (3 personal and 3 fosters).

Shelbyville, KY to Lexington, KY
50 miles - 55 minutes

Lexington, KY to Corbin, KY
85 miles - 1 hour 15 minutes

Corbin, KY to Knoxville, TN
85 miles - 1 hour 15 minutes

Knoxville, TN to Chattanooga, TN (can break this leg up)
100 miles - 1 hour 30 minutes

Chattanooga, TN - Cartersville, GA
70 miles - 1 hour

Cartersville, GA to Lawernceville, GA
60 miles - 1 hour

Lawernceville, GA to Athens, GA
45 miles - 45 minutes

I have worked with Brightstar and BDBH doing many transports along this route (except they were going North not South). I have probably at least one contact for every leg in KY and TN and I have a contact that lives between Atlanta and Chattanooga.

I have already emailed this to Molly and asked her to add some additional info and once she signs off on it, I will start crossposting to my contacts.

Southern Cross committed to Baron several days ago. We have been working on transport for him. I just called the shelter this morning to get a good weight on Baron for transport. I was told they were contacted by the Mass. Humane Society yesterday and that they were transporting him to Mass. instead.
I can only hope there is something good for Baron there.

Please, keep us posted. I foster dogs, but always thought the real key was transport and the people that are available to do it.
