Inside view of Tom and Amber Adkins Animal Transport Vehicle. Note that there is no access to air condition or heat. Just a metal box on wheels. No ventilation at all.

Side view of Tom and Amber Adkins Animal Transport out of Reidsville NC property. Again notice no air, no vents or any heat for winter travel up to New York where they took their animals. Pancake Hollow out of New York was one of their partners.
The housing Tom and Amber kept the dogs until they shipped them up to New York. This picture was taken in the middle of the NC summer months where it was 90 plus degree. No Shelter from the sun or rain to fit all these dogs.
What happens when you don't give a dog shelter from 90 degree days, day after day, let alone food or fresh water.... they die.
And how much did Tom and Amber Adkins care about these animals they sold for cash, apparently not enough to remove the dead dogs while their kennel mates looked over their dead fly riddled bodies.
So what I am trying to show you is what happens when you put the animals last in the rescue community, this is what happens when on social media you ask profiles that you have never verified or meet to pull and ship an animal to you for a price.
For them the price is their life, a life more horrible than being humanly euthanized in a Shelter. SO before you go onto social media like Face book and say pull me that animal from 5 states away, or ship me that animal from 5 states away, or before you say I will donate to your Chip In and I don't even know if you are for real..... think of this. Is this what you want to have a hand in?
Investigate who you are dealing with when it comes to a live animal, ask their full name and what state they are registered in, ask that state if this is correct and last but not least go onto the IRS website and see if they have reported their $ in the last year.
Take precautions, put the animal;s health first. Don't allow this to go on in the Animal Rescue Community, this never should of happened and these animals never should of dies such a slow horrible death.
