A man purchases a plane in order to rescue stray dogs! Paul Steklenski, a network engineer and war veteran, chose to earn his pilot’s license and get a puppy in the spring of 2013.
Steklenski not only met a new part of his family after visiting the shelter, but he also learned about the people who rescue abandoned and stray dogs every day.
Steklenski also made the decision to save the dogs. He founded Flying Fur Animal Rescue in 2015 and rented planes in Pennsylvania.
Despite the large costs (about $ 25,000 over the last two years), Steklenski sends 15-20 desperately needed animals to the shelter every day, and he is grateful for the opportunity.
Steklenski was able to purchase an airplane thanks to the help of volunteers and contributions. Steklenski is devoted to animals. And his images with the rescued puppy next to him always capture the excitement of the flight. The flight with Emma, on the other hand, was very memorable.
Because the airspace over New York is one of the busiest in the world, private planes rarely fly here. Steklenski, on the other hand, flew here with Emma this time.
“Imagine: a 14-year-old dog who had barely survived could view the entire city of New York… She had no medical care or attention her entire life, and now she’s on a plane!”
Emma was rushed to the vet as soon as she stepped off the plane. Nicole Brooke stated, “She struggled for so many years.”
Despite everything, Emma was finally given the opportunity to show who she truly is. “She’s looking for love,” Brooke explained.
“Paul gives us a critical opportunity to move pets from North Carolina to Westchester, New York,” Brooke explained. “Without his help, we wouldn’t be able to save the dogs from there.”
