Transports
We rely on volunteers who are willing to drive approximately 2 hours round-trip for one leg of the transport journey. All BDRA dogs being transported are going to approved foster homes or adopters. A Transport Monitor will be in touch with all of the drivers on the day of the transport and will keep everyone informed of the status of the transport, including if it is running early or running late. Some transports require an overnight stay.
If you are interested in being on the Transport Team, please send the following information to bdratransport@gmail.com
