Sunday Night's Transport

Harrooo mates! Sunday morning #1 got an urgent call from a kind soul trying to get this big old Pyrenees puppy from 'somewhere back west' to 'somewhere out east'. This was not your average rescue - if Drake was not removed immediately he would be destroyed (stupid humans). Through a friend of a friend a rescue was contacted and accepted him, but that would require coordinating a transport in about two hours... on super bowl Sunday...can you imagine? Well let me tell woo something- he was on the road within the hour. And while 100 million people watched  a football game Drake made his 6:00 p.m. rendezvous with a trucker who would take him the majority of the way.

Such a dear...

Don't worry Drake, you are safe now! Enjoy your journey big dog.

Peace & love,

RAHUSKY

#1 is an Angel! And we are not even surprised that Drake found his way...after all Quinn came to us through an incredible chain of last minute heroes and YoYoMa got from northern CA to Albuquerque by the grace of angels just your #1. Not being surprised does not mean we are not incredibly grateful and filled with wonder at the goodness of some. Drake, you are SUCH a lucky boy...have a GREAT life!
