I hated to see that the cats don't get as much attention but at the same time my heart is swelling knowing this kind man is trying to help even when fighting his own demons. Sir, I salute you.
I rescued my first dog, Sam, almost 5 1/2 years ago. He was found as a stray in Kansas and was subsequently transferred to a shelter in Colorado. Sam is the sweetest boy (with his ornery moments) and I can't imagine life without him. Thank you for this uplifting story!
Have known peter for 25 years He was an outstanding surgeon, truly gifted and yet he barely talks about his past success _ instead he pours himself into this project and these animals. Life lesson anyone?
What a kind and big-hearted soul of a man this guy Peter is! You can really see what fulfillment his new purpose gives him. I think his late wife would be enormously proud of him. 🧡🇺🇸
I agree! We need more people like him in the world. It's atrocious how some animals are treated in many parts of the world. Peter, is saving one loving animal at a time:-)
Me too! What this man is doing is wonderful. Dogs are just the best. I have 2 and getting them would definitely be among the best life decisions I’ve ever made.
If I could handle another dog I’d make my husband fly to meet up with him. I’m especially impressed that he logo’d his plane. Guys are more involved with the look of the plane than their own. A real Angel. You can tell by his wings.
My little Ginger came to me from St. Croix Animal Welfare Center, flown to Norfolk on her own plane by Paws From Paradise, a group of pilots who fly dogs from St. Croix all over the East Coast, under direction of Sali Gear, Chesapeake, Virginia.
This man is AWESOME !!! thank you, thank you, thank you !!! I don't think I could make it without my boy NEWBIE...pictured at left...he is my heart ❤️🐾🐾🐕🐾❤️
This story made my day. I love the Dog is my CoPilot name as well. I had that bumper sticker on my car for years. Like Peter, I like dogs better than most people!
This SOOO Beautiful 😭😭😭 crying tears of Joy 💓 Thank You Dear Sir for Your Beautiful Enormous Heart you have for Our Precious Fur Babies May God grant You Double portion of Blessing over You 🙏🙏🙏💓
I love this story. In Columbus, Ohio, last year we went to the Humane Society to adopt a dog. There was only a few dogs. I can see why Peter flys dogs to other areas to be adopted.
Thank you to the food doctor Rork for committing his life & time to serve animals, saving them from being killed in shelters. Bless him in all his travels and to all the animals too ❤
Wonderful heartwarming story ♥️ I am also in the healthcare field and can fully understand how this work, finding dogs new homes is more rewarding. Humans are generally not that thankful ... but you can completely transform these pups lives and those who adopt them 🐶🐱💕
Another one of your beautiful stories that brought me to happy tears. An incredible man with a heart of gold doing one amazing job of rescuing man best friend by finding them homes across the country. My sincere thanks for what you do . Love when CBS Sunday Morning shares stories like this. Stay safe and blessed in 2021
What a great, great, great human being …. I wish you would re-run CBS Sunday Morning in prime time … we need to see more good in the world … we know it’s out there and in reality, there is more good than bad out there …just that the latter gets more of the airtime, sadly
The pilots who do this are simply heroes.

Dogs truly are pure of heart and pure of soul. So is Peter.
When you feel overwhelmed by all of the problems in the world, a story like this reminds you that there is hope.

Just when you think this world is a crappy place, there is Conor Knighton and Tumbler.
Tumble.

This is great! More than 19000 doggie passengers amazing ! We need more thinkers like Peter !

So glad that there is a home for flying dogs.
Love on four legs! I really need to get a dog.

Maaan I'm so glad there's a small handful of smart rich people who do nice things for animals

Rescue dogs are the best, as well as those who rescue--and are rescued by--these wonderful animals.
