Yorkie train needed from Southern IN to Chicago IL! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

megansmomma · 02-09-2009, 02:59 PM

I am looking for help with a yorkie trian! There is a little guy in a shelter in Jeffersonville, IN and Yorkie Haven would like to take him into their rescue. I live in Chicago, IL and we would like to try to get him in this directions. Is there anyone willing to help????? Looks like pretty much a straight up I65 but it is 5 hours from Chicago!

0.4 mi

Bumping this up hoping someone in indiana will see it.

are you going to take him from Chicago to Texas? If you need help getting him South - I would help. So if he gets to Chicago and can get to central Iowa...

No he would be coming to Chicago to stay.

Oh, I thought from that other thread he was going to Texas

-- so sorry, I must have missed something. Good luck in getting him!

I live approx. 40 miles due west of Louisville. If no one from the Lou. metro area steps up to the plate, I could drive over and get him part way to Indy. I can't be away from the farm too long.

That is great! If you could gt him from there even half way to the IN boarder that would really work! What day would you be able to help?

Isn't anyone else willing to help get this little guy out of this shelter?

gamfa · 02-10-2009, 06:25 AM

I'm a widower so my time is pretty flexible. I would like maybe a days notice in case I have something already planned.

If I lived near there I would be happy to help but am too far away, I'm sorry. I hope someone else can help you rescue him. Good Luck.

I am going to send you a PM with my email address. Time is running out to get this little guy out of there. They are talking about euthanizing him if he is not gone soon!

I'll send money to reimburse a transporter for gas! If you drive over 2 hours, I'll throw in lunch!!!! PLEASE!!!!!

Originally we were thinking he would go to TX but I can foster him in Chicago. I thought it would be easy to get him part way here and I could meet someone along I65 and bring him home.

I have 2 different people who might be able to pull him out of the shelter and drive toward Indy. Then we need help through the Indy area. I could meet someone maybe an hour outside Indy. We only need a few people to get him here.

YHR was going to fly me into Louisville and I was going to bring him back on a plane today. Only problem is that it would be really impossible to get him on the plane to come back since he is coming straight out of the shelter. Then I thougth if I fly there and drove back in a rental car that would help cut down on time. I found out there is a convention going on in Louisville and NO RENTAL CARS!

I just talked to the shelter a little while ago and they said he is about 6 yr old and will not go out through the "guillotine door" into the outside area but he will go back in without a problem. Sounds to me like he is really scared to death!!!! They do have a hold on him for YHR but that is limited and they said HIS TIME IS RUNNING OUT!
