This year has been one for the books! We faced challenges at every turn, but our hard-working team, our community of animal lovers, and amazing shelter partners showed up time and time again to help us complete an incredible year of life saving!
Dog Is My CoPilot is set to receive a $750,000 grant investment from national nonprofit Petco Love in support of their lifesaving work for pets.
For animal lovers, nothing tugs at the heartstrings more than the thought of homeless pets waiting for a second chance. Here at Dog Is My CoPilot, we’re grateful to partner with over 200 shelters and rescues nationwide.
We wanted to update our community of animal lovers on recent developments at Dog Is My CoPilot, especially given your dedication to shelter pets.
It is with great sadness for us to share, on Tuesday May 28, The Sequel (one of our Cessna Caravan rescue airplanes) was in Addison, Texas for scheduled maintenance when a tornado destroyed the aircraft.
The rescue flying season is in full swing, and we have already hit another milestone: 32,000 rescued shelter pets! This particular flight that had passenger 32,000 on board was special for a few reasons! Our newest member of the Dog Is My CoPilot team was the pilot.

As we kick off May, we’re excited to celebrate our 26,000th passenger flown to safety! Our two airplanes have already touched down on both coasts and both borders of the continental United States, and have been ‘Wheels up’ nearly every day transporting hundreds of dogs and cats from overcrowded shelters to the safety of receiving organizations.
Quasi was a rescue we met at the end of 2022. He was left by his owners at a large municipal shelter in Merced, California. He had an infection in his body that was life threatening and he needed help right away.
2022 has been another amazing year for Dog Is My CoPilot. This is our 10th Anniversary, we rescued our 25,000th animal, and we now have a second rescue plane, ‘The Sequel’!
