Bring Bubba & Bo back from Turkey!!

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Molly and I’m in need of support to bring my dogs back from Turkey.

I rescued Bubba and Bo at five weeks old when I was teaching English in South Korea. I saved them from a life on a chain in the streets.

I have traveled all around the world with these babies. In addition to Korea we have also lived in the US and most recently for the past 3 years in Istanbul, Turkey.

Due to urgent personal reasons, I had to leave Turkey in the middle of the school year. Unfortunately due to strict CDC laws about importing dogs from Turkey, I had to leave my dogs behind while I returned to my hometown of Buffalo, New York.

I have now settled into a new apartment and a new teaching job here but Bubba and Bo are the last missing pieces of the puzzle.

I am seeking financial support for the following travel expenses that unfortunately I cannot afford right now:

  • $1600 (roundtrip flight for myself to go get them in Istanbul)
  • $800 (dog cargo flight cost)
  • $1800 (rabies vaccination at the airport)

I have exhausted all my personal resources and connections, so this is my last resort to reunite my family.

It is with a heavy heart and a ton of humility that I ask for any support so that I can bring my dogs back safe and sound.
