2 Old Gals (Lancaster, CA)-UPDATE Plus 1 More Male

how far is Victorville from Vegas? maybe I can take the day off and pick up those ladies.

Google maps says :
I-5 N and CA-14 N
93.8 mi1 hour 42 mins
2
hours 40 mins in traffic

I expect there will be traffic at freeway interchanges. I'm going to estimate it will take 2 hours 15 minutes.

Arrival time: 11:30

Victorville is 1 hour and 20 mins from Lancaster.

Arrival time: 1:00

And, the tricky part:

Victorvill to LB via I-15 S
95.7 mi1 hour 36 mins
3
hours 30 mins in traffic

That's where I may hit traffic, but if things go smoothly, I can probably do it.

I also wish I was in the lower 48, so I could take part in these missions. I would love to help!

Reneé.. I've often said that. We have more applications than we have pugs, and we could certainly help the overflow at the California rescues... maybe we can make a deal with snowbirds.

What Rona said.

So you got this all covered, I am just seeing this. The 15 can be a bit messy on Friday afternoons as everyone is headed to Vegas for the weekend.

Anyway, let me know if you need me to step in somewhere. I have a sick contagious toddler right now, but I don't think he'll get the pugs sick and he may be willing to sit and watch DVD's in the car longer than usual.

First, thank you everyone for coming to our aid once again. Lisa, you are awesome (and it was nice to finally talk to you, lol). So, here is the latest update. The 2 turned into 3. Besides the 2 females, we are also taking 1 male. San Diego is going to do the surrender/pick up and then meet a volunteer from SNPR on Friday afternoon. I'll update once we have them!

Good work ladies!!

Correction: the black boy is coming here.

That's right. We might "lose" one along the way. LoL.

Oh boy, that should make for some fun times in your home! Can't wait to hear how everything goes and see some pics!!

Lisa is sadly convinced she has a full house, and I don't think she could convince anyone he was a really big cat....but I think if she had done the pick up, perhaps she might have made the detour to her house...

I would have been highly tempted to make a detour to my house! A black boy addition would be wonderful IF I didn't already have 2 pugs (with one sweet little girl being the equivalent of a heard of pugs) and a whole host of kitties - 2 with special needs. Now, if I won the lottery, got the bills paid off and bought a larger house, there would be nothing stopping me!

The 3 have arrived and are at our vet for the night. Their names are Itsy Bitsy, Happy, and Houdini. I think they are all going to need dentals and all need to be fixed as well. They are all apparently super cute (but what pugs aren't?). Oh and I don't think we got the black boy. Although I am not 100 % sure yet, I will have to wait for pics to arrive! LoL

Saira - I can't wait for pics and updates on these babies!

I am going to go to the vet today, hopefully to visit them and take pics!

I can't wait to see them!

omg - saira and I went today to take pics and they are absolutely GORGEOUS. I'm so glad we didn't get the black boy because if he was 1/2 as cute, I might not have been able to resist! they may set a record for number of apps. saira will post pics soon, I'm sure.

So, did San Diego get the black boy? I'm going to have to lurk on their site to see if I can spot him.
