EMERGENCY TRANSPORT FOR MOMMA MELLIE!!
Saturday, October 3, 2009
Hartford, KY to Oconomowoc, WI
Route: KY IN IL WI (I-65, I-80, I-294, I-94)

Please meet Mellie!!




Mellie was found running in traffic on a busy expressway and taken to the local shelter by good samaritan. After she arrived, it became obvious that she was very pregnant. The vet estimates that Mellie is due on approximately Oct. 14th, so she desperately needs to get to rescue before she delivers at the shelter. This transport is being considered an emergency and MUST take place THIS weekend! PLEASE HELP!!

NOTE: Since Mellie has not been quarantined and is unable to receive all of her vaccinations due to her pregnancy, she will be the only dog on this run. I'm sorry, but no other dogs can be added.
