Trying to get 2 newfie pups to their foster homes from Autumn Acres.  There are a couple of legs needing filling.  I'm getting one of them, and am planning on picking him/her up in Buffalo, NY.

Contact info is in the itinerary:

Please crosspost widely...

Transport for 2 Newf pups going from rescue to their approved foster home.

Run is set for August 12 & 13th and as a back up on August 19 & 20th.

Transport goes from Quincy, IL to Albany, NY & Ontario, Canada.
One foster mom will come over border to Niagara Falls to take to Canada and the other to Albany, NY.
 
All legs are flexible, so if you can do just a part of one leg, just let me know.

Sometimes life just isn't fair - I have been WAITING for an opportunity like this I live in Rochester  but definately would have gone to Buffalo also, unfortunately, I have a previous committment on Sunday no matter how I do the times I can't get it to work out.  I am available Saturday for a Buffalo, Syracuse, or Rochester run.

I believe we are out of town next weekend but will know for sure later tonight.

I'll have to talk with DH on this one.  This Sunday would be really reallly tight but might be possible.  DH is on vacation so I don't know what we've got going next weekend.
