Operation Roger: OTR trucker volunteer rescue transport service Email: operationroger01@yahoo.com http://www.operationroger.rescuegroups.org/ P.O. Box 522 Joshua, TX 76058 Companion Rescue & Transport Email: cprtransport@gmail.com Nashville, TN 37221 Phone: 615-260-8473 or 731-217-6196 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 http://www.skyark.org/ Sky Ark Non-Profit Animal Transport As our mission statement says, Sky Ark arranges free air transportation on either Sky Ark-owned aircraft or with other pilots and aircraft owners. Our free air transport service is for the transportation of injured or sick animals in need of health care, rescued animals from shelters, delivery/transport of service animals and for other compelling needs. Many of our volunteer members are pilots who use their own aircraft when we are unable to provide transportation in Sky Ark aircraft. "We will also provide transport for members when there are situations when the USDA or other governmental agency has shut down a puppy mill or seized animals from deplorable conditions, or from failed animal rescue groups. Sky Ark will attempt to provide transportation to these animals, but only when there is excess funding and time available and members contribute via our Transport Request Center." Flying Paws http://www.flyingpaws.org/ Any organized rescue group, veterinarian or recognized animal care organization may contact Flying Paws concerning transport of their special needs animal. Flying Paws will NOT transport to any KILL, PET STORE, RESEARCH or BREEDING facility.
