Saving Dogs With Planes, Trains & Automobiles | Girls With Dogs Dog Edition

    • Pets & Animals

To mark international dog day, we are celebrating the tireless life-saving work so many animal lovers do across the globe, with ‘Doobert’ aka Uber for dogs and the pilot-turned-orthopaedic-surgeon-turned-dog-shelter-rescuer.
Doobert: Free Uber for dogs
By day Chris Roy is an IT professional and by night and weekends, he’s an avid animal rescuer, pilot and superhero who loves to dream up new ways that technology can help people help animals.
Chris Roy started flying animal rescues, transporting shelter dogs from high-kill locations to places where they were more likely to be adopted. But realizing that coordinating the ground and aviation legs was not as simple as it could be, he created a system to coordinate the trips . And he named it after his cat: Doobert. Doobert is a volunteer based Uber-like service with tens of thousands of volunteers across the US, that any rescue or shelter can use. It is kind of like match.com where rescues and shelters connect with each other and with volunteers who transport the animals wherever they need to go. The online platform has become a household name in the world of pet rescue, and it all started with a 17-year-old, 15-pound cat called Doobert.

Dr Peter Rork's Heart Is As Big As Wyoming: Dog Is My CoPilot
Take off with us and Peter Rork in a plane called The Big Dog. It's a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan packed from floor to ceiling, fore to aft, with dozens of lucky rescue dogs. What are they doing? Flying to their forever homes on the other side of the western mountain ranges. Who's flying them? Dr. Peter Rork, the retired orthopaedic surgeon who founded the non-profit Dog Is My CoPilot.
