Heather Shaw

Transport Coordinator

Heather became involved in the rescue since 2014 after Renae asked her to pick up a puppy in Virginia and transport it back to PA. That one transportation had her hooked and she began her amazing job as the "Transport Queen". Heather not only volunteers her time to us but also to Reach Out Rescue and Resources and is on the board with them. Heather dedicates so much of her time to making sure dogs are going here, there and everywhere! She has 3 dogs of her own: Daisy, Bailey and Moe (ADBBR alum). Heather is leaving us and moving to Montana this summer but she will still be our go-to-girl for all transport coordination!
