Rescue Express, a DBA of MGM Animal foundation, is a free- of-charge shelter animal transporter for over 300 shelters, rescue organization, and individuals. We operate every weekend, travelling from San Diego, CA to Burnlington, WA. We operate buses with 100 carriers aboard and a tractor trailer with a 300 carrier capacity. The animals are picked up from shelters between San Diego and Redding, CA. and are received by non-kill shelters and rescue groups between Eugene, OR and Burlington, WA. We also operate transports in areas which have been hit by natural disasters and need shelter animal evacuation. We transported over 250 animals during Hurricane Harvey for PetSet moving displaced shelter animals from Houston to Minnesota.
