We encourage adopters to adopt closer to them since so many shelters and rescues are overpopulated with dogs needing homes. But, if a dog you wish to pursue is in another state, it is up to you as the adopter to cover all expenses for transportation. We do not put dogs in cargo on planes so you'd have to fly to the foster home and take your dog back in the cabin. Or, you'd have to drive to the foster home to pick up your dog. Some foster homes can offer to meet you, but as the adopter, expect to do the majority of the travel. Should you find a transport to bring your dog closer to you, you'd have to make arrangements with that transport and cover any cost yourself. You'll also have to pay for a health certificate for your dog to travel.
