Move The Dog Transportation

Transportation of the Sport Retriever During winter months, we have scheduled weekly North/South routes available.
(110)

Move The Dog Transportation evolved out of the necessity of moving the sport retriever across the country at any given time. Based in the central part of the country, we are able to move retrievers to destinations within a thirty-six hour time frame. We also transport to other destinations as requested. Move The Dog also transports all ages of retrievers for breeding, buying and selling. Our goal

is to provide an alternative that will reduce the stress associated with other forms of travel such as an airplane. Contact us today for schedules, rates as well as upcoming travel destinations. Let us take on the worry of moving the dog so you can enjoy the training and the competition of the retriever.

Oh why not add more fun to our month of June. With puppies going home, dogs graduating schools, the Master Amateur National in one corner of the country (Washington St.) and the NARC in the other corner (Maine) we had to add a second truck to keep up with the overlapping requests. Just like ten summers ago…. So grateful!!! Trucks met today in the center of the country- one to New England the other to the Gulf coast then out west! Why not MOVE more of these wonderful dogs! Thank you for the continued trust & privilege!

Wow! Did a fast trip (5days/3200miles) across the country (NE/OK to VA/NYC) with some black dogs that had to get to special places! This upcoming week will once again be a west trip to east coast to SE to south central back to SE and then back west! But this time the miles traveled will be for most of June! HAPPY SUMMER!

04/18/2024

The nicest part about moving dogs home from training camp &/or school, is getting to spoil them as if they were your own. Picked up Ms River yesterday from Triple B Retrievers to move her home for the summer months. We had to top for a BIG pup cup at the coffee shop! She’s a happy soul tonight!

04/18/2024

Good morning Reid! Time to get going!!! Reid, a Ryan puppy makes her arrival today to her lifelong FT home. However Reid isn’t into early mornings! Yet she loves her prey drive after her “coffee”.

Funny how things change. Lmbo. Think the picture of “500,000” was the second MTD truck The other picture is of the current MTD truck …. Just ANOTHER 500,000 miles! ROTF …… last month per tax records the overall mileage came in at just under 4 MILLION MILES for the history of the life of MTD! Thank you clients and thank you United Fleet Service Centers of Central Iowa!

Thank you Colton (and Lauren) for getting MTD on the road today with two very special girls!

But today, it’s coffee and a cookie at a favorite place!

The Liberty Retrievers party before they go off to school!!! They ALWAYS do everything at “hundred percent go!” Welcome to Sunday!

The challenge to wear down a high power FT pup when there’s a thunderstorm outside. Gus is giving me a challenge tonight. However he’s such a personal goofball….easy to love!

Taking a week or wee bit more off to “balance life”…..lol…. Only to be called out to move this special child today. He’s just a hoot! And we’re having a great time tonight playing & watching a movie tonight. Tomorrow will be a big day for this youngster. Wishing him all the best. Loving that life can be so special on a moments notice!

Happy MONDAY ……. Hope you all get the same amount of smiles from this personal video as I did this morning! I’m so missing my boy Bossman and all of you! Yes I’ve been absent for a few weeks. I have started another FB page for current times in my life right now. Could use some strong support in many ways. If you wish to be apart of that, drop me a message and I will connect you to that page. For now… I hope you all take an xtra moment to enjoy the simpler things in life, perhaps a good moment with a good dog. HAPPY MONDAY.

It’s FRIDAY and the Franey girls, Gidget & Ten are having some fun while dad, Robert Franey is at home working in winter conditions. Oh what we do so our dogs can spend the winter down south! Baypoint Kennels or bust!

Bossman celebrating the news we are ONLY 4 hrs from home! We’ve been “on the way home” since last Friday! December’s weather will be a rememberable one. (we left the Saturday after thanksgiving for just a quick one week trip… turned into a three plus wk trip.). Grateful to MTD clients that kept us moving dogs! However we left with NO winter gear! I look forward to heavy warm clothes & boots! (and the return of the white iron horse!).

The Four Amigos are in fine party form tonight!

A friend sent me this from Montana last weekend. Not dogs but just as cool!

A different piece of Iowa tonight.

Chicago traffic at its best! Someone needs HAPPY HOUR! Time to change the SiriusXM station AGAIN.

Puppies are the greatest gifts

A little nighttime puppy action before bed. This is Ace. He caught a ride this morning. Pictures tomorrow….. we ALL are tired! Goodnight

Well SOMEONE is happy he didn’t miss the bus last night. Eli doing his puppy romp…. He’s only 11yrs! WTG Eli

A little bedtime puppy play after hard driving today. The last hour spent on I20 in a monsoon outside of Shrevport. LMBO AGAIN stuck in driving rain this week. My apologies to those who really need the rain but have missed the fun. Good night from a cute chocolate pup.

Happy Monday Morning from the Red Rover Retriever puppies! May your day be full of Happy Puppy Play!

Had a little sighting today. Enjoyed the front row seat….my passengers I believe voiced their displeasure.

Retirement to me (the second one, the real one) will be daily life of swimming dogs & daily drinking…. Coffees in the am Tequilas in the pm. Wishing for those days sooner then possible.
