​Transport night is an opportunity for the community to show up for our shelter dogs before their big journey North. Adult dogs need to be walked to give them an opportunity to get some exercise and potty, and puppies need cuddling while we clean and prepare the van.
 

• Volunteers typically arrive a few minutes early to get in line to walk an adult dog. Our dogs are excited to get out of the shelter and they will often pull to some degree.  

• All ages are welcome. Dog-walkers must be 18 and an adult/guardian must supervise anyone under 18 at all times.

• We will post details on Facebook the day prior to the transport about how many dog walkers we need and if we have puppies to cuddle. Please RSVP on the Facebook post.

• Please sign in on our sign-in sheet when you arrive.

• Dogs arrive from our partner shelters at 6 pm sharp or even a little earlier, ready to be walked along the greenway for a full hour. Please plan to walk with the dog for the full hour to give them much-need exercise and opportunity to potty before their transport. 

• Please plan to stay with your dog until we are ready to load, typically around 7-7:15pm. If you need to leave early, do not hand off your dog to another volunteer unless you have received prior approval from us.

Please check our FACEBOOK page the day before to rsvp!

  We post transport dates as soon as we have all the details confirmed - typically one week in advance. The day before a transport, we post a reminder on Facebook. You can RSVP by commenting on the post. Thanks!
