Our other passenger, the Shit tzu-Poodle (Shih-Poo) was an older dog who had been found wandering on a rural road. While she had a chip and the owner was located, they said they didn’t want the dog back. We flew her to a new home in Newport News, Virginia.

The weather on this mission was nasty by the time we got to Newport News, VA. Low ceilings and rain took over the sky conditions and we had to shoot an instrument landing to make it in to Newport News airport.
