      @flakoloko5009 Last I knew (been here 12 yrs.), one year recent OTR. No more than two violations in the last three years. If leasing on a truck, 08 or newer. There are owners here with multiple trucks looking for drivers flat/van. Google or call recruiting at Mercer Transportation Louisville, and they can give you the current information

    Thank you, I do not know where I am going until I find a load. Big city veterinarian rates are sky high for their overhead is also. Our family always had three shepherds on our farm growing up and I have had a number since. Old age, a couple with cancer has been real. The farmer in me (we are well versed in animal care) had me working on her the other night. I drained some yuck out of that area that night. Yesterday she was definitely feeling better and got around better. At 13 and her mental state she still has "some" time left. It just isn't easy seeing age and health taking a toll on our buddies.

    OMG....same thing happened to me. I had a black lab that was 17 years old. He had hip dyspasia and he stopped being able to jump on my bed or in my Jeep. I could tell he was in pain, but tried to keep him comfortable for as long as I could. About one year later, he couldnt even manage the stairs to go outside anymore. I woke up one morning and he was spread eagle flat on the floor and couldnt manage to get up anymore. I layed on the floor with him and tried so hard to get him up, but he couldnt. He was fine otherwise, so I know how you feel my friend. I knew it was time. He weighed 100 lbs so I had to call my neighbour to help me lift him into my Jeep. I called my Vet and yes we had to say goodbye. It was one of the worst days ever!!! I sang him a song as they were giving him the injection Cant you call ahead to a Vet to make an appointment in the next area you go too? Tell them your a trucker and need help. Many people will help if you reach out. Lots of Vets will do house calls/or in your case truck calls. Im sooooo sorry my friend. If it is her time, dont fret or be worried, because Jesus had Noah build an Ark for a reason. To save all the animals. I know there are horses in Heaven, and I truly belive that our Pets are waiting for us. Dr. Billy Graham even made a statement one day before he died.... He said, "The Lord is making a heavenly and perfect place for us to come, and if it takes my DOG beging there, then I believe he will be there" If he says that, than I believe our animals will be waiting. I cried my eyes out for one week, than thought "why am I waiting" I tried to find another black lab, but I couldnt find one. I had always loved Doodles, so I found a local breeder. I specifically wanted a black male, and they only had ONE out of a litter of 13 They were GOOD breeders and kept the puppies with the Mom for 12 weeks, instead of only 8 weeks. He was ready to go the next day, so I went and picked him up 2.5 years later, hes the love of my life. I cant live without a dog, always had one. Id love to send you pictures. Send me your info ok. Good luck dear friend. God is watching over you and you will be reunited again with you special "Sammy"... Yes that is my dog NOVA in the picture....
