100 dogs flown from high kill shelters to no kill shelters.
#1
I am always happy when I come across a story like this. Dogs in places that are over populated by strays are being given a chance in places that need and want dogs. No dog should ever be killed again because of over crowding in a shelter. It is always possible to transport the dogs to where they are wanted.

This is not the first time that Colorado has taken dogs from other places. They are doing a lot of good work finding homes for dogs.
I love the names of the groups involved. "Dog is My Copilot" and "From Forgotten to Forever Rescue and Transport" organized the project. Once in Colorado a number of rescue groups will be finding homes for the dogs.

This is such a hopeful event. In time we can end the massive euthanizations of previous generations. We are creative enough to find ways to do better.

What a great idea. And with groups who volunteer to help with the transport, it works so well.
I like the name of that group: "Dog is my Co-pilot".

Those dogs will hopefully find forever homes now instead of being euthanised. So wonderful!

Colorado has been great. The various rescue groups in the state take in dogs regularly.

This is only a years work of rescuing for one state. 
They are not the only place that rescues from over populated areas.
I think we are looking at a very hopeful future for many animals. Volunteers are willing to transport them and the shelters in the arrival area take as many as they can and people are eager to adopt them.
Some day there will not be large numbers of animals at risk. After a disaster or when the number of strays gets too large animals will routinely be transported to welcoming homes. The world is becoming a better place because of things like this.
