These dogs and cats all landed safely with our partner organizations and found their forever homes. We are grateful to help these passengers land in HOMES all over the country!

Nala

Adoptable Nala is a

DREAM DOG

Ivy

Ivy is such a blessing to our little family. She is such a hoot...has zoomies almost every day....and with a little bit of time has brought my other rescue out of her abused she'll!

Stark & Mac

Isaac (now Stark) and Newton (now Mac) were two tiny puppies when we first saw them in the shelter. When they were individually adopted, we connected their families so the boys could still continue to see each other and enjoy play dates.

Patches

We adopted him 4-15-2024 from Thompson Falls, MT. After seeing numerous dogs, Patches walked over and climbed up my wife's leg to get petted.

Ginny

Sometimes you just know, and Ginny was a Neubauer before she landed in Jackson Wyoming. Really, who wouldn’t want this regal beauty?!

It’s been 6 weeks of Bert! Sweet Bert came to me late on a Sunday evening, he hitched a ride back to Jackson with Dog is my Copilot’s very own Kara and Olivia.

Arlo

Arlo (was Eeyore) was brought to SDH from Oklahoma. We were able to bring him home in August after a whole lot of begging from our daughter, Chloe, a soccer team petition and a slide show - Chloe got her way and found Arlo on social media.

Auggie

Beefcake, now Augustus or Auggie for short, has been a bundle of joy for our family. He is really smart and picking up training really fast. Now that he has his shots, he enjoys going with his sisters on walks.

Birdie

Hey all Happy Fall - Just wanted to send an update since we have officially hit the 3-3-3 mark. Remember Wendy and Birdi (Twirley) from the Abilene hoard (my babies my loves). They are doing so well last night Birdie crawled into my lap and fell asleep!

Kumo was living at an overcrowded shelter in Norman, Oklahoma for over a year before she got a flight to Oregon this past June with 30+ other dogs that were brought from the same shelter.

Squiddy

We adopted Squiddy from the Animal Adoption Center a little over four years ago. She is our first small dog (12 lbs.) and has proven to be a terrific companion.

Nina

Nina rescued by Dog is My CoPilot Captain Frank from Marfa Texas!! She is more interested in licking than selfies! We love her. She is the best!

Ivy

I picked her up April 20th, 2024 from Thompson River Animal Care Shelter. She is having a wonderful time going on walks with her new sister.

Louie

Louie is the BEST little adventure buddy! He’s been on two major road trips, a few camping adventures, paddle boarding, fishing on the South Fork River on a jet boat!

Bella

After 479 days with the AAC, we are SO excited to announce that Bella has found her forever home! This sweet girl has been waiting patiently for a long time and we could not be happier to see her start this new chapter with her new best friend, Bruce.

Tilly

We adopted Tilly (formerly Honey Bee) from the Idaho Humane Society after a flight by Dog Is My Copilot brought her from New Mexico to Boise in 2018.

Mouse

12 years ago I adopted a 4 month old German shepherd puppy who was blind at birth. He taught me the mindset of a dog-life is what you make it. His blindness didn't slow him down as he knew no different.

Ruby

When I went to the shelter I initially met with 2 other pups, and I did not really connect, then when I met Ruby I knew right away! We really connected right from the start, I could tell she wasn’t in the best shape, some infections and she was very weak and skinny.

Mattie

Mattie (Kendal) had a a great time saw a lot of things, got petted by everyone and made some new doggie friends.

Dove

After tremendous loss, Dove has brought joy and healing back into our lives. Dove arrived in Wyoming literally on a Wing and a Prayer. This terrified little heeler I knew almost nothing about was pulled from EPAS on a gut feeling and undeniable synergy.

Crimson & Clover

Crimson is my little guy (I hope to adopt him) and Clover is my mom’s dog. They are just perfect. Crimson is having a dental this morning and I can’t wait to pick him up!

It's been six months since Remi arrived in New York City, thanks to a lifesaving flight out of Texas from Dog Is My Co-Pilot. We have had so much fun with him over the past few months!

Luna

Luna is a dream come true! She has a timidity and apprehension that we are working through together. We want her to know our home is a safe space and she is part of our family.

Lucy

Lucy being Heartworm positive, was a complication for a northern rescue. You see, Heartworm positive dogs cannot legally enter many northern states until treated. Thankfully, through the generosity of a shelter foster, we were able to give Lucy a new life.

KingO

Copilot KingO is delighting us and those he meets on his adventures as he continues to settle in to his new Montana life. He brings so much joy and so many smiles each and every day.

Moose (fka Hershey)

Hershey, Oklahoma, 2023. Hershey (now Moose) arrived in Bend, OR from a shelter in Norman, Oklahoma that was maxed out on space. As with many shelters across the country, this one in Norman, Oklahoma was completely full and needed to make room to accommodate the influx of dogs being surrendered at their shelter.

Goose

I adopted Goose 2 years ago today and he's been amazing we initially thought he was a golden retriever/collie mix but it turns out he's a 50/50 split between a Great Pyrenees and Australian cattle dog!

Dibs

Polly (who actually goes by Dibs these days...or land manatee or baby dragon) said she wants to donate to DIMCP’s new Sequel so more dogs can find homes like her so keep an eye out for her gift.

Chimi

Life with Chimi has been so much happier. Chimi has come into our lives to make it a lot more fun.

Chamois

Chamois, pronounced ’Shammy’, has brought so much joy and so many laughs to our home! She is sweet as can be and is learning quickly.

Polly, formerly “June”, was on a flight from Athens Animal Rescue in Athens, Texas, to Almost Home Foundation, in Illinois, back in August.

Simon

I intended a companion for me and my 75 pound golden/mastiff dog – something bullyish and protective who was an all-wheel drive dog for the mountain trails and snow. Lynette suggested I give Simon a try.

Gladys

Gladys is a 3 yo spayed bulldog from Dallas Animal Services. Gladys found herself in an overcapacity shelter with a skin infection. She was adopted but sadly returned a day later so Karen aand Jamie agreed to foster her in Dallas.

Bonnie

A year ago we dashed to an adoption event to meet this perfect girl who gets along with cats and couldn’t leave without her. And we hit the canine jackpot!

Chopper & Lohman

We adopted Chopper in 2013 after his DIMC flight landed him at the Humane Society of Western Montana. His eye had been removed only days before his flight and was still stitched and badly swollen.

Remi

Our dog, Remi (named Doug when he was flown up from Texas) was adopted from Hearts & Bones! Remi is a border collie mix, it was September when he was flown up.

Mitchell (now Cooper!)

Thanks to the help of selfless volunteers who took time to photograph, share and post pictures and videos of these dogs, and spend time with them, we were able to see just what an amazing, good boy Cooper is.

Polaris

We adopted Piper (now Polaris) and she’s been such a wonderful addition to our family. She’s incredibly affectionate and wants to snuggle all the time, and she really loves belly rubs.

Quincy loves everything and everyone – this includes any person, dog, animal or child he comes in contact with, He is very patient and sweet with our 1 year old daughter, they are two peas in a pod!

Lucy

Lucy (Beignet) came from an overcrowded shelter in Oklahoma. She was on the euthanasia list. Dog is My CoPilot flew her to Oregon, and Street Dog Hero took it from there.

Pumpkin

Pumpkin’s journey brought her to Teton County after a breeder in California left her at a large city shelter in Los Angeles. Her life had been limited to repeated breeding, confined to a crate, devoid of outdoor play, leash walks, or the freedom to run.

Harriet

Our sweet, baby girl, Harriet (formerly known as Emma) came to us through One Tail at a Time (OTAT) PDX. She was flown up to Portland from Texas in August because she was anxious and struggling to express her true nature in the shelter.

Max (now Kiah!)

Kiah, earlier known as Max, through ARK Charities. Kiah was on the July 6th fit to Hartford, CT. Dog is my Copilot was instrumental in making this happen. Kiah was on the euthanasia list along with so many others.

Titan

A special dog, Titan, a young cocker spaniel touched our hearts and we want to share his story with you today. Picked up as a stray, emaciated with infected skin, our shelter partners in Southern Texas immediately stepped into action to save his life.

Marty

Writing to thank you all for our newest family member Marty. His name is a spin off from his former OTAT name Aquamarine. Our family has fostered a handful of OTAT pups and had no idea we would be adopting his little guy!

Hi there! I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for transporting my best buddy to Seattle from Merced County earlier this year!

From Hoot’s mom, Lilly: I’m literally obsessed with her!!! She’s a stage 5 clinger, but in a really cute way, not a separation anxiety way.

Kota

I adopted Kota, formerly known as Cuco from Village For Paws Rescue. Here are a few photos of the him with my other heeler mix.

Pimms

Pimms journey started when she arrived at a large municipal shelter in Southern Texas. Without rescue transport, dogs that enter this overcrowded shelter do not make it out alive.

Phoebe

Phoebe was surrendered to the El Paso Animal Services, in El Paso Texas and required immediate medical attention to address a badly injured eye.

Shafter

Shafter is living the ‘Good Life’ in Portland Oregon! This gentle giant stole the hearts of shelter staff and visitors with his big block head, goofy demeanor, and his permanently crossed eyes.

Sage

Sage was surrendered to one of our partner shelters, the Presidio Animal Shelter in far West Texas in October 2022. That year ended without a single dog or cat being adopted from the Presidio Animal Shelter all year, despite more than 200 intakes.

Hercules

Hercules’s journey began in Presidio, Texas, a small town on the US-Mexico border. The Presidio Animal Shelter is a six kennel steel shed with no supplies, no budget for veterinary care, no volunteers and no adoptions (just one dog was adopted in the last 24 months).
