Weekday WV/KY drivers urgently needed!

https://www.volunteermatch.org/search/opp3187528.jsp

ARTBAR desperately needs multiple volunteer drivers to help to get our dogs from foster in Lenore WV over to Sheabel Vet Hospital in Lexington KY.

Gas money and meals reimbursed with receipts. Drivers use your own vehicle. We can provide loaner crates. Must have reliable vehicle, good driving record, and be comfortable handling sick/injured dogs. Ability to lift up to 50 lbs on occasion.

This is a once or twice a week opportunity. Pick dogs up in Lenore WV early in the morning on a weekday (7 am?) and transport to Lexington KY. Our founder works a full time day job, so we need to work around her job’s hours for meet times.

Dogs will be dropped off at the vet and left there for treatment. You do not need to stay at the vet’s office with them.

Then after vetting is complete, we need assistance with getting them back to foster care in Lenore WV. This is not typically done on the same day, though. They go to the vet for a few days to up to several weeks depending on the level of care/recovery they need.

Ideally we’d love to find several people who can help since this is a long drive (almost 3 hours each way). Can be split among multiple drivers so you’d be doing one or 1-1/2 hours each.

We rescue a lot of injured and elderly dogs that require extensive veterinary care and this vet is the best we’ve found for extraordinary care.

Must love dogs and be comfortable handling strange dogs.

MUST Be 100% reliable and punctual. If you say you’re going to be there at 7 am to pick up, you will be there. If for some reason there’s a traffic delay, you will keep us notified via call or text.

Must be comfortable using Facebook messenger.

If you want to map the route on Google maps, it would be from vicinity of Cheech’s Pizza in Lenore WV to Sheabel Vet Hospital in Lexington KY.

Contact us if you can assist on a regular basis.
