For years, we were part of a transport team that rescued border collies.

Some were even transported from Hurricane Katrina to northern states.

Each driver would drive maybe 100 miles or so to hand the dogs off to another transporter on the transport team, until the dogs finally reached their destination.

We did this for about 10 years or so.
