Forgotten Angels Rescue & Education Center, Inc.

A group comprised of rescuers who transport, transporters who rescue, or big hearted animal loving volunteers willing to help with both. The primary topic of this list is All Breed Rescue Transport. We are in the process of building a National Network of APPROVED Transporters to minimize the time, stress, and over-all aggravation currently associated with moving a rescue from one place to another.

Rolling Rescue

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rollingrescue/

Rolling Rescue is a place for rescues needing transport and transport volunteers to find each other. Their mission is to recruit truckers, Rivers, commuters and anyone else who travels to the network that helps to move rescued animals to safety, in a rescue or from a rescue. to their new adoptive homes. Most of their transports involve dogs, but all are welcome. Their site mentions a Yahoo group which consists of coordinators who match up the rescue transport need with the driver and his destination.

This rescue is listed on Pet Finder. They do not specifically mention transport on their web page, but due to the fact that transport is part of their rescue's name, I suspect they may assist in transport.

Sky Ark
