Ive just pm'd janeyk with my number and i have Cains and Woowoo's numbers so we can try and arrange a day. I replied to this before i looked at the thread with his piccie he is lovely. I shall have to give myself a good talking to not to just drive home with him

Oi, You better not!!!

Really looking forward to seeing him. We've just been out for a couple of miles with our girl in the Lakes and I was just thinking how lovely it will be to have another one with us.

Bank hol Mon gives me plenty of time to get things sorted for him - new collar etc!!! :evillaugh:Spoilt boy. Thanks guys xx

Yep, I'll just sort out meeting times with woowoo and speak to Cains owner and just check about him travelling and things so all sounds good so far

Karen-covcats · « **Reply #29 on:** April 25, 2009, 18:18:57 PM »

JUst spoke to Cains owner and Bank holiday monday is fine so its all go for then

Janeyk · « **Reply #28 on:** April 25, 2009, 12:05:47 PM »

Right, after lots of phone calls

it's looking like it will be Bank Holiday Monday as that seems to fit in with all of us, just to arrange times now, so fingers crossed Caine will be in a lovely new home a week on Monday

Janeyk · « **Reply #27 on:** April 25, 2009, 10:52:21 AM »

ah! I was just about to pm you Karen (after chatting to my sister on the phone which is usually for an hour

) I rang woowoo earlier so I'll give you a ring.

This thread is so building up to dancing bananas on completion!

You guys are so great pulling together and helping Cain to a new home.

Janeyk · « **Reply #24 on:** April 25, 2009, 07:42:21 AM »

I will give woowoo a ring this morning and see what we can arrange

JackSpratt · « **Reply #23 on:** April 24, 2009, 21:11:48 PM »

Karen, you'd do that? You and Janey are wonderful!

I think all that needs to be done is for numbers to be exchanged between everyone doing the run and Woowoo. So, if Karen can get in touch with Cains owner (WooWoo, you need to PM the number!) and organise collecting him, then Janey needs Karens number and WooWoo needs Janeys.....I think that's right!

I'm so pleased that she didn't let him go to just anyone. I mislaid the number (it was on a post it that disappeared from the PC!) and didn't want to bother her until I knew someone could help for definite.

I've been trying to find someone all afternooon, we do still need that section doing don't we J.S? Would be wonderful if we could get him sorted thank you for your offer.
Have spoken to Cain's owner and she thought we had forgotten, he is still with her though - thankfully!

Karen-covcats · « **Reply #21 on:** April 24, 2009, 17:48:41 PM »

Hi sorry i havent looked at this section for a while. Im in coventry but dont mind coming up and doing the nottingham to woolley edge services if you still need someone.

woowoo · « **Reply #20 on:** April 24, 2009, 15:54:19 PM »

I'll give her a ring this evening. I don't know if I can do anymore?

JackSpratt · « **Reply #19 on:** April 24, 2009, 12:50:59 PM »

Thanks Woowoo, I'm still not having any luck either.

Could you phone his current owner and keep her updated? I don't want her to think we've forgotten him!

woowoo · « **Reply #18 on:** April 23, 2009, 21:38:40 PM »

I've tried a friend and a Lurcher rescue number that I have, but no luck. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.

JackSpratt · « **Reply #17 on:** April 22, 2009, 23:07:27 PM »

I can see why you'd be reluctant. It's not really built for a big dog your car!

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #16 on:** April 22, 2009, 21:23:20 PM »

Keep up the good work hun .... you know I'd offer to help but I really don't think a lurcher and mylittle car would be a good combination

Good luck

JackSpratt · « **Reply #15 on:** April 22, 2009, 15:50:52 PM »

Not yet. Have posted on another three dog forums in the last two days - I have no idea why it's proving so difficult but will keep trying!

Blimey, organising this first bit's proving to be difficult. It's odd because I think how far you're going to drive Janey and it seems mad that noone on the other sites is prepared to do what is essentially a run that will take roughly 2 hours out of their day.

Any luck yet JS?

bonnielass · « **Reply #13 on:** April 20, 2009, 22:34:15 PM »

I would have offered to do the run to Wolley edge as i know it well but unfortunatelt 1. im at work in the week so only available at weekends and 2 my car is not very reliable at the moment plus ive developed an oil leak somewhere,if i had other transport i would willingly have helped out

it's ok, glad to help

JackSpratt · « **Reply #10 on:** April 15, 2009, 20:08:51 PM »

You aren't kidding! I've just looked it up. You are an absolute star, Janey - thank you.

Janeyk · « **Reply #9 on:** April 15, 2009, 18:24:31 PM »

Just one thing JS whoever does the first leg really need to meet us at Woolley Services early morning because it's a bit of a hike.

Will pm you shortly Woowoo

woowoo · « **Reply #8 on:** April 15, 2009, 17:42:59 PM »

Ok will do. I think he will benefit from being with my girl, we might be able to sort his Seperation Anxiety in time. I've told Fred he's coming

JackSpratt · « **Reply #7 on:** April 15, 2009, 16:24:02 PM »

Woowoo? Can you PM Janey and tell her where you are in Cumbria?

Will try and hunt down someone to do the first leg. Will also pass on current owners phone number to Woowoo, and phone the owner tonight regarding the plan.

MrsR · « **Reply #6 on:** April 15, 2009, 16:21:38 PM »

Guys to say I would help but think best I bow out this one due to my current situation, hope you understand.

Janeyk · « **Reply #5 on:** April 15, 2009, 15:57:36 PM »

JS if someone can just do that first leg from Nottingham to Woolley Edge Services we'll do the rest right up to Cumbria. Where in Cumbria is it?

JackSpratt · « **Reply #4 on:** April 15, 2009, 15:23:43 PM »

Moira, thanks for the offer. But Woowoo is away the weekend before hence the date of the 21st. Sorry Janey am terrible with locations, will look up the stretch you're prepared to do.

moira · « **Reply #3 on:** April 15, 2009, 11:53:09 AM »

I dont know if I can help at all but I am driving from Leicester to Carnforth (Lancs) on Saturday (18th) and could take him to Cumbria. However, must note I only have small car (Nissan Micra) and it doesn't have dog screen. Depends how well he travels and how safe it would be. Anyway, pm me if I can be off help.

Janeyk · « **Reply #2 on:** April 15, 2009, 11:21:43 AM »

After 21st we could take him Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday, Barnsley to Kendal area other than that Sunday but wouldn't be full distance to Cumbria then.

JackSpratt · « **Reply #1 on:** April 15, 2009, 10:32:20 AM »

Any time after the 21st. I'm aware this is a trek, so a chain will probably work better! The dog is currently in the Urgent section (will put a link up later) and after confirming this is acceptable to his current owner I think it's best to put the wheels in motion. (That sounds like a bad joke in the transport section!)
