    K..I know that Swift no longer allows pets..:biggrin_2557:..and not sure if this can be answered here but I do alot with animal rescues and adoptions..now here's my question:

    How much trouble can I get into if I'm just delivering an animal if I'm going to that area anyway?

    because I've done this for a while I have drop off points so there would be no worry of being stuck with the animal because of a no show

    I say let's go with the omit theory. You don't lie about it, you just... omit it ;-)

    While I approve of the rescue, logically thinking what if the dog does not like riding in a big truck and starts tearing stuff up? Or pisses or doo doo's on the floor while your driving. I would prefer my own well trained pet, but not one I do not know driving something of size and weight. Could make a reciepe for disaster.

    Most of my transports have been crated except the ones who are ready known to be road worthy
