At Dog Is My CoPilot, every flight we take is a mission of love and last month was no exception. While we were responding to the catastrophic floods in Central Texas, helping move shelter pets out of harm’s way, we also celebrated a major milestone: flying our 40,000th passenger to safety.
We’re proud to once again partner with the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole for Old Bill’s Fun Run, and this year, our hearts are full of gratitude for the local heroes making it all possible.
This summer, Dog Is My CoPilot took on our largest rescue mission yet and thanks to our generous supporters and partners, it was a massive success. In partnership with Palm Valley Animal Society in South Texas and Brandywine Valley SPCA in Delaware, we coordinated a special MEGA flight, using two of our aircraft to transport over 100 shelter pets across the country.
Each year, when our founder and Chief Pilot Dr. Peter Rork blows out his birthday candles, he makes one wish… to help save more shelter pets! This May, we hope you’ll join us to honor his birthday wish with a donation to help keep our aircrafts ‘Wheels Up!’ saving shelter pets.
This winter, The Big Dog has been soaring through the skies, completing dozens of flights and covering thousands of miles to support our shelter partners. Along the way, we’ve picked up hundreds of furry friends and safely delivered them to loving homes. One special passenger we’re excited to introduce is a sweet senior poodle who’s experienced quite the journey to happiness.
As we soar into 2025, Dog Is My CoPilot (DIMC) has been busier than ever, flying thousands of miles to save animals in need. From responding to the devastating wildfires in Southern California to expanding our partnerships across the country, we remain deeply committed to giving homeless pets a second chance.
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.
