We use our own private transport to get our adopted pets to the Midwest region.
We use Pet Express Transport and Alpha Dog to Nashville, Knoxville, and New England.
Pet Express Transport is a veterinarian owned pet transport service. They decided to begin their own transport in order to help bring rescue dogs safely to their new homes. The dogs are walked every 4 hours during the day, and fed food for their specific needs. Water is constantly available to the pets during the whole trip. They keep their pets in an appropriate size crate that will allow them to be comfortable on their journeys home. Their passengers are never left alone over night.
Alpha Dog is a group of rescue volunteers who have been saving dogs for 17 years. The dogs are walked every 4 hours during the day, and fed food for their specific needs, such as those with sensitive stomachs. Water is constantly available to the dogs during the whole trip. Their trailer has A/C, heat and ventilation. They monitor the temperature of the trailer, during the entire trip, and adjust as needed. For more information about Alpha Dog, visit their website!
All dogs receive a specific health certificate from a veterinarian after a thorough health exam. That health certificate is required for a dog to travel. We prepay transport costs, so there is no need for you to pay them directly.
