For over 30 years, the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole has leveraged local philanthropy to make nonprofits more effective and our community stronger. Dog Is My CoPilot is grateful to be part of this incredible event. Each year, funds raised through Old Bill’s touch the lives of everyone including pets in Teton County!
We now operate two Cessna caravans to transport twice as many adoptable pets from overcrowded shelters to new adoption partners all over the country. The second plane is based in Texas and will be flying adoptable animals to new partners in the central and northeast. Operating two aircrafts allows us to expand our partner network and double the number of lives that we save each year.
Fly along with us and watch this video from BOBS from Skechers! Together with Petco Love, we are giving shelter pets a second chance at life by transporting them from cities where the shelters are overcrowded, to cities where the demand for rescue is high. A win-win for everyone involved and a true mission of love.
We are looking to expand our animal-rescue team by adding a full-time paid Cessna Caravan pilot.
We are a nonprofit committed to transporting animals from communities with overcrowded municipal shelters to animal adoption centers and families waiting to adopt a new pet.
We believe that collaboration with individual animal shelters and adoption organizations, which manage the placement of animals in their local communities, is key to saving more lives!
