Overnighting and transport

I picked up Chandler from the Charlottesville SPCA today.  She's just spending one night here, however, and is moving to another foster home tomorrow.  I'll take her up to Gainesville along with the Gang of Four.  It will be a full load, but Lana, Hank, and Cooper can ride together in the rear of the van, leaving the two crates for Chandler and Gallagher.  I'll be passing Chandler off to another home, but will be meeting another shepherd up there and bringing her back down here to pass off to yet another foster home tomorrow afternoon.
 

















Chandler is a wild child, no leash manners, and she seems to be countersurfer too.  But she's friendly and gets along well with other dogs.  She was fine being crated in my office on this rainy afternoon.  I put her and Trooper into the dog yard for some exercise but it started to rain again.  He went into the shed, she stayed outside and got soaked, so I closed them both into the shed while we went out for pizza and beer.  She will come back in and up to the crate for the night.
















Chandler is a beauty.  She's more red than these pics show.  Appears to be about 2-3 years old, and acts more like 1-2.  Hopefully she will be a relatively fast turnover for the foster home.  She was vaccinated at the SPCA, tested negative for heartworms, and she was already spayed.

Thank you again for helping the senior GSD, Misty, to get to her foster home. It was a crappy day to be on the road, and I hope you had a smooth and uneventful journey.
