Overview

Mission

The mission of Furry Freight Shelter Transport is to save lives by providing transport for dogs and cats from overpopulated areas to areas of high demand to reduce the euthanasia rate of adoptable pets.

What it reported doing in 2025

Since our beginning in 2018 our small dedicated group has been able to transport 1,743 pets from severely overpopulated areas where shelter euthanasia rates are high due to pet overpopulation. Our spay it forward program has also covered the cost of spay or neuter surgery for 811 family pets in low income homes in overpopulated areas greatly reducing the number of unwanted puppies going into already over capacity shelters.
