Earlier I posted a prayer request for Olga, Fran's sister-in-law, who is gravely ill. Fran appealed for a kind-hearted dog-lover to make a home for Olga's Jack Russell, Skittles. Renz, of Renz in the Woods, offered to take Skittles, but a relay of drivers is needed to get Skittles near enough to Renz for him to pick her up. Check out the details at the link let him know if you can help with transporting Skittles.
The dog pictured is not Skittles, just a picture of a Jack Russell in the event you're not familiar with the breed.
UPDATE FROM RENZ:
Mimi, thank you so much for spreading the word, I am quite happy to report that we have a complete route put together for Saturday, so please simply pray for Skittles for a safe journey.
All right! Prayers for all for a safe journey and prayers for Renz and Skittles that it will be love at first sight.
Checking the route I see that I, down here in SC, can be no more use than you can. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm nowhere near that area, but maybe someone knows of some churches along the route that might provide volunteers...
ReplyDeleteI'm confident that a way will be found to get Skittles to Renz. There's action on Facebook, too.
ReplyDeleteDogs are routinely freighted by air, Mimi, though I have no idea as to the cost.
ReplyDeleteLapin, I'm not suggesting a flight.
ReplyDeleteIf you start a PayPal for a flight (!), I'll be happy to chip in.
ReplyDeleteWell, I could ask Fran what she thinks. I'll chip in, too.
ReplyDeleteI suggest Fran talk to the local Jack Russell Rescue. They may well have ways to help get Skittles moved.
ReplyDeleteIf only it were last year (still in Michigan), I could/would have done it, Argh!
ReplyDeleteStart with the nearest sizable private animal rescue organization - either end - they'll almost certainly be able to point you in the right direction.
ReplyDeleteGlad it's been taken care of so smoothly.
ReplyDeleteRenz, I'm glad to hear that everything worked out to get Skittles to you. I had a feeling that folks would step up to the plate.
