What happens when a hurricane derails your plans, your car breaks down, and you end up in a sketchy hotel? Join us on an epic 1,672-mile journey from Texas to New York, where my best friend Bev and I, Amy Castro, faced these challenges and more—all in the name of finding the perfect forever home for Bonnie, a lovable rescue dog.
Our adventure was filled with unexpected detours, hilarious mishaps, and heartwarming moments as we stayed committed to Bonnie’s welfare every step of the way. From flat tires in New Jersey to navigating pet-friendly hotels with questionable conditions, we tackled it all with determination and a bit of humor. Alongside Dr. Linda Atkins of Valley Cottage Animal Hospital, we ensured that Bonnie’s new home was just right, despite the many obstacles we encountered.
Ever wonder what it takes to secure a loving home for a rescue animal? We’ll dive into the creative strategies we used to expand Bonnie’s adoption reach, including alternate addresses and rigorous vetting of potential adopters. Plus, hear how we managed Bonnie’s anxiety during her first-ever road trip and why our unexpected stop in Memphis during Elvis Week turned into an unforgettable experience.
From spontaneous visits to historical sites like Valley Forge and Gettysburg to the emotional and logistical challenges of saying goodbye to Bonnie, this episode is packed with stories that highlight the dedication and flexibility required in rescue work. Whether you’re a pet lover, a road trip enthusiast, or just in for a rollercoaster of emotions, laughter, and invaluable lessons in animal rescue and adoption, this episode has something for everyone.
