AJC Rescue & Transport

AJC Rescue & Transport Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate dogs and cats of all breeds and ages and find them loving homes throughout the country.
(12)

We operate transport to aid our efforts of finding the best forever homes for the animals we save. My team and I strive to provide the most caring, safe and professional transport service, for rescue & personal dogs, from Houston to northern states, in order to give these animals their chance at wonderful lives with loving forever families. TERMS OF SERVICE

We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit rescue & tr

ansport group and our transport is part of our rescue fundraising activity, meaning all proceeds after expenses, are used to fund the saving and vetting of more dogs. We currently service mainly the Northeast/New England area and the Midwest (Chicago/Michigan/Ohio)
We operate a Mercedes Sprinter Van and all dogs are transported in Airline crates, in accordance with USDA guidelines. Our rates are structured as follows:
$220 per dog up to 100 lbs
$275 per dog over 100 lbs (or tall enough to require a 38” crate or larger)
$300 per nursing mom with litter up to 4 weeks old
$350 per nursing mom with litter 4-6 weeks old
(Additional fee of $100 per crate applies for litters of more than 6 puppies)
$220 per crate for puppies over 6 weeks old and no longer nursing, no more than 2 puppies per crate as long as puppies are under 20 lbs each. Above 20 lbs, the individual crate rate applies. These rates are for dogs originating in the greater Houston area. Other pick up locations are available with prior arrangement and additional fee based on location and quantity of dog loading at that location. We utilize the following Jotform for bookings. Unless your booking has been received via this form, we cannot guarantee that a crate has been reserved. If a booking is received and we are fully booked for the date you are requesting, we will contact you right away. You can find our form "AJC Rescue & Transport Booking Request" at: https://form.jotform.com/221517135216144

Payment and health certificates, for dogs booked on transport, must be received by email no later than 48 hours prior to scheduled loading. Dogs canceled less than 48 hours prior to loading (or refused at loading for health/safety concerns or for missing/incomplete paperwork) will still incur the full original transport fee. Payments can be made via:

[email protected]
at least 2 days prior to transport. Original Health Certificate, vaccination records and Rabies Certificate (if applicable) must accompany the dog during transport. DOGS BROUGHT TO LOADING WITHOUT THIS DOCUMENTATION PRESENT, WILL NOT BE LOADED. All dogs (except NPG puppies) must wear a collar when brought to loading. Any dog not wearing a collar, will be provided one by us and a fee of $10 per dog added to the transport fee. All dogs must be at least 14 days post shelter exit, meaning they must have spent at least 14 days in boarding/vet care/foster care before they are eligible for transport. Health requirements:

Adult dogs:
• DAPP vaccine
• Bordetella vaccine
• Rabies vaccine
Vaccinations must be done at least 5 days prior to transport

• Clear fecal exam within 7 days of transport.
• Health certificate
• Proof of negative Parvo test within 7 days prior to transport. Additional requirements may apply, based on the laws of the state the dogs are going to. Please check with your vet and the website of the Department of Agriculture of the state where your dog is going. We reserve the right to refuse any animal that shows signs of aggression or illness at the time of loading or is brought to loading without the required documentation.

After a year with her foster, beautiful Godiva has officially been adopted and was safely delivered to her new family in Michigan last weekend.

Saved from an overcrowded shelter, Godiva began her rescue journey scared, shut down, and malnourished. Since then, she has blossomed into a stunning example of her breed: smart, eager to please, and always ready for a new adventure.

Now she has finally found her perfect match: a family who understands and has experience with her breed, and knows how to give her the very best life.🥰🥰

Godiva was shy and hesitant leaving our transport van, but once she met her new family and went home with them, she knew she was truly HOME. ❤️🏡🐶

We couldn’t be more excited for this deserving, beautiful girl.🎉🎉🎉

Happy life, sweet Godiva. We love you. 🥰

Handsome Bear has arrived in Iowa with his new family and is already enjoying the wonderful life he deserves.

His story could have ended so differently. We took in Bear and his sister, Banana, who is still available for adoption, after our volunteers found them being given away out of the back of a truck in Houston.

Thankfully, amazing fosters stepped up to give them safe temporary homes while we searched for the perfect adoption matches.

Bear got very lucky when his new family spotted him and instantly fell in love. He was safely delivered to Iowa on last weekend’s transport, and now he is soaking up all the love and attention he has always wanted.

We celebrate every adoption because it means everything to see once-abandoned pets finally living the lives they deserve.🎉🎉🎉

Happy life, Bear. 🥰🥰🥰
We love you, and we can’t wait for updates on all your new adventures.🐶🐾🐶🐾🐶

We’re so excited to share that our handsome Scout has been adopted! 🎉
He made the journey across the country on our transport last weekend to join his wonderful new family.

Scout was originally saved from a shelter, and after spending time in a loving foster home, he caught the eye of his perfect match. When he stepped out of the van and met his adopters, it was an instant connection—one of those moments you never forget.

Now Scout is settling into his new life in Minnesota, and it’s clear he’s exactly where he’s meant to be. We couldn’t be happier for him.

Happy life, sweet boy. We love you. ❤️🐾

Our yogurt-loving sweet girl, Tuxedo, recently presented with concerning mouth sores, infection, and missing teeth. After a thorough veterinary exam, it was determined she had severe dental disease, requiring the removal of her remaining 16 teeth.

Tuxedo is recovering beautifully with her foster family and thankfully, this hasn’t stopped her from sharing breakfast with her foster dad every morning 💛

Her medical care totaled $975, and expenses like this are tough for small rescues to manage. If you’re able, please consider donating to help cover Tuxedo’s medical costs. Every bit truly makes a difference.
