Transport for Caucasian Ovcharka Denali. He was a big dog and is only about a year old. This breed is a very sought after breed and how Denali ended up in a shelter is unimaginable. Luck was on Denali’s side when a rescue in Ardmore, OK learned of his situation in South Carolina and agreed to take him in.

How he got to OK is also very interesting. Denali had no offers from any PNP pilots from South Carolina to fly him anywhere West like Knoxville, TN. Denali was driven to Knoxville, TN but still no PNP pilot offers to get him to West TN where I had offered to fly him to Ardmore, OK. So Denali caught a ride on an 18 wheeler truck thanks to a very generous truck driver. Linda Jones had agreed to foster Denali until the weather improved, but she had to pick him up at 3AM. The weather improved, and I flew Denali to Ardmore. Linda went along to see how PNP works from the pilot’s point of view.

Denali touched everyone’s heart who had a chance to meet him. Including me.

Thanks to everyone who helped get Denali to his OK rescue!! It truly was an amazing feat!!
