Flight Escorts Needed
by Syd Sullins
Finally, things are starting to feel like they’re back to normal. Many of us are fully vaccinated as are our families and friends in the US - and we’re ready to visit. When I’ve flown recently, the flights were completely or nearly full. We want to travel!
Well, so do our dogs! We have a full house at The Ranch and a wait list. Puppies are coming to us by the litter every week. In the first five months of this year, we have transferred 171 dogs to rescues in the US and Canada. Most of those dogs are already pre-adopted. And we have many shelters in the US that are still clamoring for our dogs. What we need right now are flyers!
If you are flying to the US, or you have friends visiting from the US, please consider being a flight angel. We really try to make it as painless a process for our travelers and it’s oh so rewarding. We stay with you at the Guadalajara airport until the dogs are checked in. Representatives from our partner shelters are waiting at your destination to receive the dogs. And it’s so rewarding to see these precious souls that will soon be in their forever home.
Most of our flight angels are veterans, who have done this once and come to us time and time again to offer to fly dogs. Our biggest need right now is for angels flying to Seattle and San Diego. But we also have other local rescues looking for flights to Las Vegas, Seattle and Portland. The easiest airlines to fly dogs are currently AeroMexico and Volaris.
If you’d like more information, please email us or call 376-766-1411 or 331-270-4447! We’d love to answer all your questions and help you decide if this is right for you.
