Animals can be shipped by air transport, or there are vollenteers who work with shelters to move animals across the country in thier own vehicles. (My aunt and uncle do this). Often times, an animal gets moved in shifts by several volunteers, and spends a night or a week with folks in route. (We do this). All to get folks and pets together.
I suggested on another forum that we ‘fire members can volunteer to relay the pup from SV to her new home. I’d be honored to move her a couple hundred or more miles West to East and I’m sure I’m not alone in that.
