This might be the current owner, a foster care volunteer, or a rescue colleague. After the dog contact and the prospective adopter talk, we confer with the dog contact and determine whether it seems like a good fit. If all parties agree that the match is a good one, we start making arrangements to get the dog to its new home. Because Corgis and Corgi mixes are not a common breed, finding a good match in your geographic area may prove to be much more complicated than you might think. We regularly connect people and dogs all over the United States.
Many people are very concerned about shipping and the potential risks to the animals.
These concerns are generally based on horror stories, not on current knowledge of airline shipping procedures and practices. My colleague, Pat, has worked with many different carriers and knows the ins and outs of shipping dogs very well. We do not ever ship a dog if we think there is any risk associated. We go out of our way to ensure that all dogs are shipped by the most safe and efficient means possible, using the most direct routes available. We will not ship via regular cargo.
