http://community.livejournal.com/dri...fe/699807.html

Introductory Information :

Buster is being surrendered due to a biting incident in his current home. Two lovely people in Wharton, TX have offered to take him in for the rest of his life. In the meantime all volunteers must be aware that he HAS bitten before though it was suspected self defense, but perhaps it is best if we use experienced transporters on this run. Normally Buster is very sweet and loving. However, this may be his only chance at transport to safety. This transport is URGENT.

January 17, 2006 - Legs 12 and 14 have been filled, and several more awaiting confirmation. Still several to go however. Thank you everyone, let's keep it up! Also, I now have confirmation of where Buster is being boarded for transport and it is actually in Marietta, GA. The information list has been updated, as has the first leg. There is also an alternate route in the making.
January 18, 2006 - Legs 3, 4, 6, 7, and 15 have been filled. In addition, we also have pending volunteers for legs 2, 5, 8, 9, and the overnight. Still four legs to go!
