Monday With Three M's

Me
Merdie (sent from her iPhone on Saturday)

Mom's Turn Now! Thanks Khyra!

What a weekend! Let's get right to it and get started with Saturday's passengersIvoryIvoryOur Lucky Travel CharmSilverIvorySilverIvorySilver, his floofy fluffy tail, and his pantyloons!

They were excellent passengers - Silver was so handsome and so sweet! I was kissed multiple times. I don't think he ever stopped smiling. Ivory was a bit overwhelmed by her day and was a bit stressed by the time she met her furever furamily Saturday evening. They already have a Great Pyrenees and knew THAT was consistent with the breed. Here is a portion of a note we got Sunday AM:

She was totally shut down by the time she arrived last night but had a good night's sleep and woke up this morning happy, waggin her tail, ate , went for a walk in the woods with her new family and is doing just fine !!!

Here is the Photobucket Album link to the photos and three videos; here is the link to just the slideshow. You will see the run was done FOR BEN BECAUSE BEN AND RESCUES ROCK!!!

Now for Sunday's passengersMisha The Puppy dumped by some pitiful excuse of a person in a hospital parking lot in AtlantaMisha and Elvira whose Petfinder link you saw here on SundayGretchen giving us some FROOT BATGretchen had also been dumped near a shelter but the unhumans couldn't even bring her the rest of the way - thank dog she wasn't hit by a vehicleYou'll see LOTS of this in the PhotobucketSee?Gretchen road shotgun - I did lots of tummy petting - and was repaid with little Chi-Weenie kissesMisha tunneling under ElviraElvira enjoying a cool beverage prior to heading to Allentown Misha looking beaWOOtiful and regalElvira thanking all of The Guardian Angels that helped her get 'here' from 'there'

Here is their Photobucket link for pictures and videos; here is the link for the slideshow. You will see this run says HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEBI - well, Debi and her husband provide a great overnight spot whenever transports pass thru their part of Virginia. She is associated with DALMATION RESCUE OF SW VA - unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of Dottie #2 that made the trip from their part of VA to Hagerstown BUT you will see her in the videos!

Here is a portion of a note we got from Debi Sunday evening about THIS Dottie:

I asked Mary (the new mom) if they liked Dottie, and she said, NO, WE LOVE HER ALREADY! Thanks to all of you for your help in Dottie’s transport, and for the other three sweeties, Gretchen, Elvira and Misha. Because of volunteers like you guys, these four girls are headed for wonderful new lives.

She even offered to take Misha since she was black and white like the Dals....

This same family adopted another Dottie a month or so ago - they wanted her to be able to spend time with the Dalmatian they had at the time who was getting close to making a trip across The Rainbow Bridge. That Dottie did get to meet and spend time with her prior to her crossing. Now THAT Dottie has a 'new' Dottie as a playmate!

Happy Birthday Debi! Thanks for providing a great B&B at Casa Dal!

Another transport was also meeting at McD's SO one of the videos is a BONUS video!

Once again, thanks to all the help support rescues whether it be by foster funds fuel or just kind words of support!

Hugz&Khysse from Khyra's Khorner

P.S. I don't know how many eggs are under there - The PFs have been pretty close to nest whenever I had the opportunity to look at the scrape - plus, our weather has been cool and damp - I'll keep checking and sharing any shots worth posting!

I am in love with Ivory. The next time you get one like her call me and I'll give you directions...and gas money!

All beauties, but what a special pup Gretchen is!!!
She is a sweet senior who deserved the first seat!
With each pup you transport, you collect another feather in your angel wings!

All the pups are just lovely. Hugs to everyone who helped them find homes.

SeaThreePeeO said...

We cannot understand why people would dump animals in unsafe places. It's not as if the shelters judge you for handing in an animal you can no longer care for.

Snowie Baby said...

they are all so beautiful and i love to hear their stories.. all with happy endings thanks to yr mommy!

happy..

Xsara and Tani said...

Very pretty passengers, it's so nice of you to help them!

Sally said...

We love reading about your transports! We hope all those doggies get the loving home they deserve! We are jealous of Silver's pantaloons - fluffy!

Lots of licks
Sally and Paddy

Dexter said...

Great that Ivory got to go right to her furever home and that she will have another big white doggie to show her the ropes and help her feel safe.

Slobbers,

M&Ms? Did someone say M4Ms? Have a good week Khyra. :)

Your Mom is a sweetheart for helping all these doggies... I'm going to dedicate a walk to her today!

Stella said...

I was in love with Ivory too, until I saw the part about her being a Great Pyrenees . . .sorry, not enough room on the bed!

This is a beautiful bunch and always, always, such good stories, the part about 4-ever homes and such.

My last bulletin from the PA Govt said there were Three eggs in Mrs PF's nest. But PA is usually late with the news!

Good work, Mrs. Driver!

Kisses,
Stella

The Oceanside Animals said...

Your mom does such good work, Khyra. We need more of her and fewer of the creeps who dump their dogs in parking lots and streets.

Ina in Alaska said...

Sadly, the work of animal rescue is never ending. I am in love with Gretchen. I am partial to senior dogs, it is a happy day for Gretchen to find a secure home for her retirement years. If Gretchen's new family needs any supplies would you please have them email me ijoffret@gmail.com I would be happy to provide a box of happiness for her. xoxo

D.K. Wall said...

Miss Kiska is in love with Silver - they would be a match made in Siberian Heaven. And Miss Ivory was just a cutie.

But our hu-dad may have melted at that Misha face. Very glad he did not see it in person or The Herd would have been larger.

Tama-Chan, Benny, Vidock, Violette, Ollie, Heloise, Momo, Ryu said...

We must confess that were really taken with Misha. What a handsome boy!

We hope they all find wonderful forever homes.

Have a great week, Khyra!

Woofs,
Tommy

Gus, Louie and Callie said...

Oh they are all so cute. We sure don't know how you can pass them off. Mom would probably have an entire herd if she attempted that.. he he

KB said...

You really are amazing. So many dogs and people owe you a huge thank you!

PS You watch those PFs like I watch Lilly and Hope in their den on Den Cam... AND, both of them are gone from the den right now. Huge event... I hope they come back.

Molly the Airedale said...

What handsome passengers this week! They look so safe and happy sleeping while they make the trip to their forever homes.

Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

Amy & the house of cats said...

Oh they are all so adorable. Why do idiots do horrible things like dump animals. It makes me so mad (our baby Barney was left in a box at the front door of our vets - I am happy that they at least did that much). You really are so wonderful to help all of these doggies in need.

Clive said...

What gorgerous dogs this weekend! We hope they are very happy in their forever homes!

take care

Steve, Kat, & Wilbur said...

Misha does look like a little version of me!!

Sam said...

One thing that really amazes me is how all of these dogs get along with each other while they are transported. They must know they are being helped..

Silver is gorgeous! Khyra, you should have had Mom keep him as your boyfriend!

Mochi and Bali said...

Soooo much cuteness!!! :)

OMD, can you believe we went over a week without our Internet? Well, it did work every now and then, but from Wednesday on...nothing! Mom was going crazy...even with her Droid she kept going back to the laptop to check it. :)

Mochi

Unknown said...

Since Dottie and Dottie's mom doesn't like her, we'll take her in BOL What a great response! They don't like her, they love her. Misha is stunning. We do need an egg count soon. You've turned us into bird watchers...your fault BOL

TwoSpecialWires said...

It just breaks our hearts to be reminded that some people can be so cold-hearted to dump loving dogs. So much that sometimes Moma just has to stop reading.

We are so grateful for what you do. We hope you know that.

Love

Hey Khyra,
That's another GReat transport for you and your mom. Boy is that Ivory a beautiful girl or what? We are all quite taken by her. They all look much better in the Extera than in their shelter mugshots. Dad says to tell your mom that if y'all never need an I-95 leg from Richmond northward to Baltimore keep him in mind.

Samantha ~ Holly and Zac ~ said...

Those are such adorable dogs. It is just awful and heartbreaking thinking that someone could just leave them and not want them.


We are glad your mum helped them, we wish them all good luck and hope they all get fantastic forever homes.
