SUMMARY: Dozens of dogs and cats were flown from Georgetown County Airport to rescues in the North, giving them a chance at forever homes and saving them from euthanasia due to shelter overcrowding. A total of 30 animals from St. Francis Animal Center and eight from Pet Orphans Miami were transported by a nonprofit called Pilots to the Rescue. Volunteers like Jesse Pen, who regularly drives dogs from Miami, expressed bittersweet feelings about their departure. The organizations receiving the animals include several rescues in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, where many will go to foster homes after their long journey.
