In exploring all options, I went ahead and put together a trip outline for transporting the bagel from Memphis to SC. Each leg is no more than 2 hours one way (4 hours round trip). I’ll be posting this in various places online and wanted to share it here as well. Shooting for an early morning start either Saturday, December 3 or Sunday, December 4. If you are in the area and would like to make an offer, please specify if both days work for you or if only one of the days would work for you. Thanks!
Leg 1: COVERED – Memphis, TN to Tupelo, MS: Estimated one way driving time is 1 hour, 50 minutes
Leg 2: COVERED for Sunday, December 4 – Tupelo, MS to Jasper, AL: Estimated one way driving time is 1 hour, 35 minutes
Leg 3: Jasper, AL to Oxford, AL : Estimated one way driving time is 1 hour, 50 minutes
Leg 4: Oxford, AL to Conyers, GA: Estimated one way driving time is 2 hours
Leg 5: Conyers, GA to Augusta, SC: Estimated one way driving time is 1 hour 55 minutes
Leg 6: Augusta, SC to my house: Covered!
Is there a story and a picture to go along with this plea for volunteer transport drivers? I can share it on Facebook.

Thanks for the info. question: Is it just the Mama dog that needs transport? Please be very careful, make sure you check references… Coming from the TN area, beware of a woman named Karen Strickland.
I’m putting the plea together to post on FB .. but I don’t see who to contact, got e-mail address and/or phone numbers.
Transport is for mama only, contact is me. My e-mail is eiderdown@yesbiscuit.com or people could simply leave a comment in the blog post if they prefer.
Ok.. got it
I don’t know if you are looking for individuals or paid transport groups, but I could take the Memphis, TN, to Tupelo, MS, leg. I have transported for Special Needs Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation (SNARR), Robin Menard and Melissa Swanson, in Louisiana. Just let me know if I can be of any help.
Thank you kindly Leslie. I received an e-mail from someone willing to drive the Tupelo to Jasper leg on Sunday the 4th. So it’s a start! I will post updates if I receive any additional offers and/or news.
The post is now on Facebook.. here’s the link..http://www.facebook.com/notes/dot-kirby/volunteer-drivers-needed-dec3-or-dec4-memphis-tn-to-columbia-sc-big-mama-beagle/282521431789737
Thanks Dot. Isn’t she so cute? I get all mushy when I see her picture.
I get that way every time I look at my 3 dogs and 2 foster dogs… Anyone here like to adopt a great dog..? I have 2 that need forever homes.
