Success Stories
Operation Roger has had many happy endings from all the transports we have done. If you have a success story to tell us about a pet we have helped, please send an Email to operationroger01@yahoo.com and include a photo-we would love to share it with our visitors!
The latest completed transport stories are found under Information/Success Stories. We will add the update on the pet in red below our story. The stories found here are listed by the latest completed transport number at top. If you know your pets transport number, you may quickly find it in this manner. All of these stories will eventually be segmented into groups of about twenty.
This particular section you are reading now, located under Animals/Success Stories, lists the stories by the pet's transported alphabetical name. However, within the confines of each letter, the names may not be alphabetical. Confused? Don't worry. Scroll around and you will be able to locate your pet eventually. Sorry, but this is the result of the program, not us. If the pet’s name was changed enroute or at a later date, it will not show under the new name.
If you remember the approximate date of the transport and can't find your pet's story, Email us that information and transport name. We will endeavor to find the story for you.
We are always striving to improve our website. We hope you like what you see.

KLARA #97
#97 KLARA (Entelbucher) Martin, MI - Chestertown, MD
KLARA #97 a 1 year old, 35#, female Entelbucher was picked up by Driver Doug (Dusty) L near Grand Rapids, MI. This was Dusty's first transport and it went well. He said Klara loved to be scratched behind the ears. Dusty met Mitchell, with Rolling Rescue, in Lamar, PA, who took Klara on to Chestertown, MD.
Klara is a snuggler, good with people, good with dogs except dominant dogs, and not good with cats. She was taken in by Bellowood after an IN rescue renigged on taking her after she was already enroute to Indianapolis from GA.
Mis-labeled as a terrier mix, she is really an Entelbucher, a small, little known in the U.S., cattle herding breed. She has a strong herding drive and needed a working home. Victory Farms in Chestertown, MD, specializes in training and placing working dogs. Like most herding breeds, Klara will sometimes nip at ankles or hands while walking with a handler. This is not aggression, its a breed trait. In the abscence of cows, she will try to herd people.

SPECKLES #95
#95 SPECKLES (Catahoula Leopard) Valdosta, GA-Knoxville, TN
SPECKLES #95 a Catahoula Leopard, 2 yrs, 60# chocolate brown merle, brown eyes, male was picked up by Driver Danny Joe W in Valdosta, GA and transported to his new foster home in Knoxville, TN. Danny Joe reports Speckles was a very gentle and loving boy and didn’t tear up anything on his truck. (Danny Joe has a way of laughing off everything one of his transport pets does and just shrugs.) Danny said Speckles was mostly quiet, as well. He was very laid back and very people oriented as the rescue had indicated. Danny Joe emphasize Speckles would make a great truck dog and would be an excellent family pet as well.
Speckles was in a high kill shelter and was rescued by Catahoula Rescue. He has suffered neglect and abuse and has hair loss, a permanently deformed foot (which doesn't slow him down much) and some other skin issues. He is amazing in his spirit of forgiveness in that he loves people anyway...and stands on his HEAD to be petted!

MILO #94
#94 MILO (Catahoula Leopard) Elko, NV-Hillsboro, Oregon
MILO #94, a 6 month old, 40#, male Catahoula Leopard from Elko, NV. Operation Roger driver Penny C was only 20 minutes out of Elko when she learned Milo was on her way. Scrambling to make the necessary phone calls and arrange a meeting place with the sender, Renee H, Milo prepared for a short ride to Sacramento, CA, where he was to meet up with Operation Roger driver Lizzy C.
Well...the best of plans can go wrong.
Penny's load didn't get unloaded in time. Lizzy's load in the Los Angeles area didn't get loaded on time. So instead of meeting in Sacramento, Penny took Milo with her on to Lodi, CA, where she was to pickup her next load. In stepped Operation Roger team drivers Don and Diane A. They met Penny in Lodi, doggy sat Milo for a few hours, and made the transfer to Lizzy in Sacramento. Lizzy then continued on toward Oregon where Milo met his new "Mom" Lori L. All's well that ends well.
