AJC Rescue & Transport

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

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.

Any dog not wearing a collar, will be provided one by us and a fee of $10 per dog added to the transport fee.
