Animal Rescue Corps stepped in to help, in the next two weeks they will transport about 125 animals all the way to Nova Scotia, Canada.

Row upon row of dogs are about to find new homes.

Canines both large and small are taken for a walk, put into a carrier and then loaded into the waiting RV.

"Quite a journey ahead of us until these dogs become Canadian citizens. We're looking at about a five day transport, just over 3,000 miles, we only have five days to get them there," said Animal Rescue Corps president, Scotlund Haisley.

Animal Rescue Corps is taking 50 dogs this trip.

In a couple weeks, they will transport about 75 dogs and cats.

These dogs include the fifteen rescued two weeks ago from a Palm Springs home.

"The amount of support that we've gotten from the Animal Rescue Corps is just unbelievable, in fact they've almost adopted us as their shelter," said Palm Springs Animal Shelter director, Pat Brayer.

The community stepped up to help make this trip possible, including a highly-discounted RV.

"We have two rescue dogs, and we're quite familiar with them, and that's why again, we wanted to help," said Mike Thompson's RV general manager, Art Leclair.

Volunteers with Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter helped load up the dogs, and said goodbye to their dear furry friends.

"It's really cool to come down here and help out and know that all these animals are going to go to better homes and kind of free up some of the space we have up here," said Friends of the Animal Shelter volunteer, Steve Silverman.

And space is much needed, the shelter is packed with more than 300 dogs and cats.

"We hope to average 200 to 240 in the future, of course that still seems like so very many, and all I can ask is if you have a pet, please stay committed to it for life," said Brayer.

Many of these dogs, including a blind puppy, already have homes waiting for them.

The rest will be in foster care until they find homes.

"These dogs that your local shelters are inundated with fly out the doors in Nova Scotia, so we've got a total of seven partners already waiting and ready to receive the California dogs," said Haisley.

Nova Scotia animal groups started a blanket and jacket drive for these California dogs, to help them find warm, and loving homes after their long journey.
