[PyrNet-L] Rescue Transport Urgently Needed

[PyrMom@aol.com]

A Sheltie friend received this message and forwarded it to me.  I do not 
recall seeing anything on the list about this poor boy.  Perhaps we could 
take a brief "time out" from the size and ethics discussion to find this boy 
a ride to his new home.
