Rescued Dog needs ground transport

I have a rescued shitzu in AL. who needs ground transport to Portland, Oregon. I was hoping she might hitch a ride with someone driving to the Eukanuba Dog show in Portland. Any suggestions?

I know a number of people who do transports for rescues, but none in the area she's going.

Personally, I'd be very wary about setting something like this up with strangers online. Anyone along the way could decide to just keep the dog for themselves. I've heard stories of a person who was supposed to be one leg of transports who kept several dogs and adopted them out herself.

If I were you, I'd feel safer finding friends and friends of friends who could each take a leg of the journey. The internet has made the world a lot smaller, so it's not uncommon for people to have friends they know and trust in almost every state or major metropolitan area.

rescue transport

I believe a rescue near me has used a truck drivers network. But then they have a program where they adopt out their dogs to drivers. Don't really have any information however. Virginia
