It’s a Family Affair
Posted Monday, April 28th, 2008 by nycgadgetgirlRescue, that is.
As you all know, I’m just a bit involved in NYC Shiba Rescue. You may or may not know that my sister, Debbie, had the rescue bug long before I did. She fosters and transports for Above and Beyond English Setter Rescue and she is also a moderator for the online transport community, Drive for Life. If it weren’t for Debbie, I never would have survived my first foray into rescue - saving Kaos from Miami Dade Animal Services and bringing her home to the northeast.
Even Miss ~T~ (jaqi now for those of you not in the know) has done her part in the past by donating a few drawings to raise money for Animal Haven Shelter.
Well, this weekend, T went on her first rescue transport. In Florida. Who was driving? None other than her father, my ex-hubby. They picked up three Shibas from a surrendering owner and drove them over 150 miles north to meet the next driver in the transport.
Rescue. It’s a family affair. Let’s spread it around.

Heehee… now we just need to find some small-dog transport going through Mississippi and convince the ‘rents to drive a leg and we’d have three generations.
Unfortunately, the transports I’ve seen that were going there way were all for things big enough that they probably outweighed Mother… not exactly great candidates!
