If for any reason you are unable to drop your dog off for transport, please let your Adoption Coordinator know in advance, so we can arrange a volunteer to assist. You can also post on our Addicus' Legacy Foster and Volunteers page on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/225623824449371/) to find help yourself.

​

 

ITEMS TO INCLUDE WITH YOUR DOG/PUPPY FOR TRANSPORT:

• All paperwork for the dog should be placed in a Ziploc bag or brown envelope clearly labeled with your dog’s name and "Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue". Please also include a note stating dates of last flea/tick and heart worm preventatives.

• Indicate the type of food you are feeding, how much and when and provide a Ziploc bag with several servings of food for transport. Clearly indicate the dog’s name and "Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue" on the bag as well.  

• Attach tape around the dog’s collar and using a sharpie, write the dog’s name and the following number on it:

740-350-0250.

• Morning of transport: limit food - many dogs get scared when they are loaded, and if we can reduce vomit, that would be great :)

• You may send a blanket or small toy with your foster dog but they have limited space for lots of luggage, so pups and dogs must travel light!!
