I have been wanting to post pictures of some of the Brits we have helped over the years through Brittany Express or pulling them from kill shelters.  There are others we helped on the Brittany Express not listed here because we didn't take or save pictures.  For those that may not be familiar with Brittany Express it is a transport system coordinated by ABR where volunteers will drive a leg or legs with the dogs enroute to their new foster or forever home.   This post is not meant to be hey look at what we've done but more about the dogs and hopefully seeing them will inspire others to volunteer.

In no particular order we have:

Trevor -- Brittany Express. Trevor was in poor health but he was calm and sweet on the ride to his new foster home.  I never did hear how things turned out for him but I think of him often.

This is Opie -- He used our house for a few days before continuing on the Brittany Express to his new foster home.

This is Daisy -- We pulled Daisy from a kill shelter in a neighboring county.  She is probably part border collie but she was a lot Brittany.  We always thought that she could be related to one of our foster dogs I blogged about, Smiley Joe.  We rescued them within a day of each other from shelters in neighboring counties but basically the same country area.  They looked very much alike and had the same great spirit.  They now live in their forever homes a few miles apart. 

The next guy was pulled from a kill shelter in SC.  This one actually didn't go to ABR. Turns out he wasn't a Brittany.  Because of some connections we have he was able to go to a local no kill shelter and they were able to place him in a new home.  ABR would have stepped up and taken him in if needed.

This is Buddy and Jake.  These two were transported via the Brittany Express

The next two, Max and Chloe stayed with us a few days while waiting on their next Brittany Express leg

We pulled Java from a kill shelter the same time we pulled Ryder and Onyx (see blog).

He was transported to a foster home and we heard reports he has done real well.

Another couple of Brittany Express transport

This is Chip on a Brittany Express run

And this is a sweet girl I named Brandi.  I had to make a very fast run to a kill shelter in SC that was about 90 75 minutes away. ABR got word at the last minute about her and she was going to be put down at the end of the day.  When I got her she was completely shut down.  We worked with her a few days and by the time she started her trip to her foster home she was a happy Brittany.
