With every tragedy comes new strength
A tornado flipped our aircraft causing significant damage
As many of you know, severe thunderstorms have impacted a million or so lives in Texas and other parts of the southwest. 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. Thankfully, no people or animals were injured in this accident. Our thoughts are with the greater Dallas community that is impacted by this storm, and for the hundreds of dogs and cats in shelters awaiting transportation to their new life
At Dog Is My CoPilot, we work with over 200 animal shelters and rescues nationwide. Powered by national non-profit Petco Love, we secure rescue partners who find each and every one a loving home. Each of our aircrafts transport 3,500 pets to safety each year. This accident will impact our operations significantly and we are working diligently to find alternative lifesaving solutions while this aircraft is repaired or replaced.
