This is the extraordinary story of one man who has driven more than 1 million miles to rescue thousands of dogs from hunger, abuse, and neglect and give them a second chance at life and love. For years, Greg Mahle struggled to keep the last of his family-run restaurants afloat in Ohio. When it finally closed, he was broke and unsure what to do next. This was when a stranded van-load of puppies changed his life forever. Join journalist Peter Zheutlin as he travels with Greg from Ohio to the Gulf Coast on his Rescue Road Trips. They bring hard-luck dogs from the Deep South to loving "forever families"who are looking to adopt a pet, with the help of many selfless volunteers along the way. From Houston's impoverished Fifth Ward—where thousands of strays roam the streets—and high-kill animal shelters in Louisiana, to joyous scenes of adopters embracing their new pups in the Northeast, Rescue Road is full of heart. It's an inspiring story about the unique bond between dogs and humans, and how going the extra mile can make a life-changing difference for these loyal canines—and for us all.

Back when this podcast was nothing more than a daydream I came across an article about a man who had rescued thousands of dogs. By taking a nearly week-long trip that spans 4,200 miles, from Ohio, down into Texas, and then back up towards the northeastern states, this guy has racked up well over one million miles of rescue transportation. He makes the trip every other week, picking up dogs along dozens of stops in the deep south, many who were almost certainly facing death, and delivering them to the arms of eager forever families along the route back home. This is the story of Greg Mahle and how he first hit the pavement with Rescue Road Trips... listen in to get the whole story.

We talk to author Peter Zheutlin about his discovery of the complex world of animal rescue through the adoption of his dog Albie. He describes the process of meeting, following, and ultimately writing a book about Greg Mahle and other animal rescue heroes, as well as the ups and downs of a writer's life.   Book Peter Zheutlin's New York Times and Amazon best-seller, Rescue Road: One Man, Thirty Thousand Dogs, and a Million Miles on the Last Hope Highway, records the journey of Greg Mahle, who drives a truck 26 times a year to save thousands of dogs. You also get to know many other heroes - the folks on the front lines of rescue - who visit shelters, search for strays, and sacrifice much of their lives to benefit dogs. People like Keri Bullock Toth, Kelle Davis, and Alicia McCarty, among many others. We featured Greg Mahle in Episode 9. Pawprint's Interview with Greg Mahle   Donate to Rescue Road Trips (Donate here!) Peter Zheutlin's wife, Judy Gelman, set up a YouCaring site for Greg Mahle to get a new truck, and Peter discusses it during the interview.

Resources Peter Zheutlin's website Peter's initial article in Parade Magazine, where he writes about life on the road with Greg Mahle Rescue Road Trips' website Rescue Road Trips' Facebook Page Peter mentioned his fondness for the book Silent Spring by Rachel Carson Peter wrote this book about Annie Londonderry, a women who rode her bicycle around the world in the late 1800's Around The World On Two Wheels: Annie Londonderry's Extraordinary Ride Peter Zheutlin started working for the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War a few months before they were awarded the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize. Parade Magazine's Facebook post that Peter refers to during the interview. The response the post generated gave Peter the idea that Greg Mahle and animal rescue could be good subjects for a book.

Greg Mahle of Rescue Road Trips shares his story of dedication to his family, including his wife Adella, and to thousands of dogs over the years.   Approximately twenty-six times a year, or every other week, Greg and one hired driver take a seven-day journey from Ohio to Southern states like Texas and Louisiana to fill up a tractor trailer with up to seventy dogs. They then head to Northeastern states like Pennsylvania and Connecticut to deliver each dog to their respective permanent or "forever" homes. That's a 4,200 mile round-trip, every two weeks!   Learn more about Greg's story, such as WHY he has made this journey every two weeks for years, the ups and downs of life on the road with a huge pack of dogs in a truck, and the many dedicated people who help make these road trips successful.   Donate (Donate here!)
