Because this is the first SFDR Legacy placement, (and because Reed gets so carsick) we are making a special celebration of it!

Jordan is personally delivering Reed to his new home in Virginia, and since the kids are so attached to Reed, everyone wanted to go along for the trip. Come along with us as we take this one-of-a-kind journey!
~Kitties







Reed is Patiently waiting and helping me pack for our trip to his new forever home

Indeed. Full coverage documentation of the latest of SFDR's transport sagas.

Bound to become an epic first, of many which shall continue.

If you do, then I wager he will at least demand the co pilot seat.

Beware though if Reed insists on being the navigator.  

Safe travels.

Perfect timing!   Yay!  Go Reed!

I think he knows this is his last time with y'all, and that makes me so sad.

But so much love and joy to come!

Reeds first walk on the beach he left his paw prints in the sand and on my heart

Mrs. Pelican 34 and Reed's future Mom here.  I cannot thank you enough for making this journey.  We are ready for Mr. Reed and pray the transition to our home is a smooth and happy one.
Can't say that I'm not glad he's getting those freedom fries out of his system before arrival.

For all you folks that have helped and/or offered to help - thank you from the bottom of my heart.  It looks like Mr. Reed's temperament embodies the heart and soul of this community.

If anyone has left messages or asked questions that we missed, forgive us. We possess many skills, but technology fluidity is NOT one of them.

@Pelican34

We hope you will share photos of Reed in his new Forever Home.   One of Mark's requests to any new owner was that ongoing pics be shared.  Reed will be "yours" but he will always be "ours" too.

And if ever he is in need of anything, all you have to do is ask.

@pelican34 and his wife got us the most perfect, beautiful spot to stay at !!
Right on the beach and in front of the most beautiful view !!!



Thank you guys so so much !! This trip is absolutely perfect!!!

Cause of the amount of dogs I have at home and the rescue events, not wanting to leave my hospice dogs and all the dog rescues in between, I don’t take my girls on vacation like most parents do, so being able to give them this amazing trip, and wonderful memories,thank you will never be enough to show how much this means to me!!

@Pelican34

Can you IM with @Duke117 to get neck measurements for Reed's new collar?

I dropped the ball on this and have been on the road for the past two days.

Totally my fault.

I AM THE BRIDGE BETWEEN WHAT WAS AND WHAT CAN BE.
I AM THE PATHWAY TO A NEW LIFE.

I AM  MADE OF MUSH,
BECAUSe MY HEART MELTRD WHEN SAW YOU,
MATTED AND SORE. LIMPING. DEPRESSED.
LONELY. UNWANTED, AFRAID TO LOVE.

FOR ONE LITTLE TIME YOU ARE MINE.
I WILL FEED YOU WITH MY OWN HAND
I WILL LOVE YOU WITH MY WHOLE HEART
I WILL MAKE YOU WHOLE.

I AM MADE OF STEEL.
BECAUSE WHEN THE TIME COMES,
WHEN YOU ARE WELL, AND SLEEK,
WHEN YOUR EYES SHINE,
AND YOUR TAIL WAGS WITH JOY
THEN COMES THE HARD PART.

I WILL LET YOU GO - NOT WITHOUT A TEAR,
BUT WITHOUT A REGRET.
FOR YOU ARE SAFE FOREVER
A NEW DOG NEEDS ME NOW.
