Totoro,
After you check WSU, check Oklahoma State University. I can try to meet you, take the dog there, then pick up the dog and meet you to deliver it. Or maybe a cheap flight? But OSU has made great accomodations for special circumstances. I don't have a phone book handy, but you can google them. Maybe if you say you are in state they will give better prices. I can give you my address to use if this is needed. And they are about 7 miles from my house, so no big to visit to take care of Clemmy. (Heck, when my parents' oldest cat was sick my mom went 4 times a day to feed him HOMEMADE chicken broth with an eyedropper!!!)
Hugs, I would hate to have to make this decision too!
