Special transport for labs, Lady & Man

Kristin Ripley and her mother Delores drove all the way up from Robbinsdale and then all the way down to Spring Valley, Wisconsin, with the two labs, Lady and Man.

These women are enrolled members of the Red Lake Band and are animal lovers through and through. They help out Red Lake Rosie's Rescue and do lots of transports for us.

They are also involved in animal projects and rescue in the metro and surrounding areas. They have adopted Annie a dog from Red Lake in 2006 who had been shot in the legs and now is walking!!

We are so thankful for them!!

The kids taking their last look at the Rez as we start their long journey (6 hours!) to start their new FABULOUS lives!
Lady is the first to venture to the front of the van to check us out!
Lady sitting on the far back seats - Man is laying down watching her every move!
Man in his favorite traveling spot! He would soon be stretched out with all legs extended and begin to SNORE like crazy!!
Both of the beautiful kids sleeping and relaxing - they KNOW they have nothing to fear on this trip!!
They both rested much better if they were touching - it was so sweet to watch them together. They are truly bonded!

  2. Awwww! Such a sweet story! I'm glad these two are off to a good home, safe from the highway, and that they've found a home together. Thank you Sandra and rescuers! ^_^

  4. My sister ia a member of an organization that rescues labs.She fosters them in her home until they are ready to move on. If I tried to do it I soon have many, many dogs. I don't think I could let them go after I'd seen them.

  5. Well, after hearing that bullets
    were flying in Redby yesterday
    very close to where these dogs
    hang out- I'm even happier they
    are gone and not in the line of fire.
