Picture of the Day: From kill shelter to airport dog

By General Aviation News Staff · September 25, 2019 ·

Gary Lanthrum submitted the following photo and note: “I’ve flown several dogs to new adopted families for the Pilots N Paws rescue organization. This is the first rescue puppy we picked up in our Maule to adopt for ourselves. It’s hard to believe this cute puppy was in a kill shelter in Texas. She’s now our airport dog in Washington State.”

    Gary – lovely photo, thank you for your rescue work, and congratulations on your new arrival! Does she have a name yet? She looks like she is all, or at least very much, red Doberman.

    PS – I am active on my state bar’s Animal Law Committee and long ago told them about Pilots N Paws.
