    Essentially I'm looking for a company with paid CDL training (i have no permit, experience, training anything) plus a pet policy for one small dog (under 25 lbs) and preferably doesn't do hair follicle testing.

    I'd appreciate links to any carriers that meet these requirements and thank you so much in advance!

    I'd delete that hair follicle request because there's a storm coming...

    I can hear it forming now.

    Get ready

    I applied at Jim Palmer, they're actually my #1 pick. Seems like a group of really nice people but sadly they couldn't take me because I haven't had my license for 3 years. I had a suspension a little over 3 years ago due to failure to pay court fines. I know Wil-Trans is their parent company so I doubt they'd take me. Will this be a problem with any of the others? Also may be important to add in that I got a misdemeanor marijuana charge 3+ years ago (related to that failure to pay court fines I mentioned earlier). Thanks again for all your help @Chinatown :D

    Some companies look at misdemeanor charges on a case by case basis and yours being 3 yrs. old probably won't matter.Most companies only require you to have a license for 1 yr.
    Try Titan Transfer: a few months ago a student there posted they don't provide lodging, but do provide meals. He said there's a cheap motel across the street from the terminal that gives discounts to Titan students. Maybe they'll take a credit card if cash is tight.
