Something we have done on the biker forums I visit is to post or e-mail where we live and if we are willing to help a biker and/or bike get home, when there's an accident or a breakdown. We didn't give our actual addresses online though, for safety reasons. I wasn't involved, because my location didn't work out, but some did help a lady get back to Canada last summer after she had a wreck on her bike. Kind of like a "tag team"

. I would consider helping to transport a pup or dog partway to a new home...don't know how the rescue places would deal with it, though....
