Helping dogs travel safely from shelter to forever home.

We coordinate rescue transport for dogs in need, moving them from overcrowded shelters to rescues and adopters across the country.

How Rescue Transport Works

1. Identify at-risk dogs

We work with shelters and rescues to find dogs who need transport to survive or be adopted.

2. Plan the route

Volunteers sign up for legs of the journey by car or air, ensuring safe, comfortable travel.

3. Travel to safety

Dogs are loaded into secure crates, given breaks, and monitored along the way.

4. Forever homes

Receiving rescues and adopters welcome the dogs and help them start a new life.

Volunteer Driver

Drive a leg of a transport route, from an hour in your local area to full-day trips. Every mile you cover gets dogs closer to safety.

Foster & Overnight Holds

Offer a safe place for dogs to rest between legs, especially on long-distance transports.
