Welcome to the CanINE Express Transport Project Blog!

The mission of the CanINE Express Transport Project is to partner with select shelters to facilitate the placement of Indiana shelter dogs with suitable guardians.

The CanINE Express Transport Project humanely transports dogs from south central Indiana, -- areas with extreme pet overpopulation and high euthanasia rates due to kennel overcrowding -- to shelters in areas in our country where there is a need for well-socialized, healthy dogs. This instrastate project, which began with its maiden voyage in December 2004 and currently has more than 30 partner shelters, has successfully transported over 5,800 Indiana shelter dogs.

A benefit that wasn't visualized at the project’s beginning is that our partners have shared best sheltering practices including spay/neuter education, medical care, promoting adoptions, increasing volunteerism, and political activism to build and grow state legislation related to animal issues.

This blog will be used to post adoption stories of Indiana shelter dogs who have found adoptive homes through our New England shelter partners. You can find out more about the CanINE Express Transport Project on our website: www.canineexpress.org/
