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 MANILA ENVELOPE, clearly labeled with your dog’s name and “Addicus’ Legacy Dog Rescue”.

• Completed Medical Checklist form (dates of preventatives and microchip included)

• Health Certificate

• Rabies Certificate

• All other medical paperwork 

• Transporters provide all food. If your dog needs a special diet, please label the bag clearly and provide enough food for three (3) days.

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

                                                     (773) 551-8303

• 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!!
