Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and flying hound lovers! Well, who is not one of those? This is such a cool story! The link will take you to KOAT channel 7 Albuquerque NM! Make sure you watch the video and see our friend Chris Dowd and Raine the flying pup!

Pilot Brings Puppy To NM For Care

“The pilot lives in a airplane community where planes are kept at houses and taxied down the street. I made very sure I was early – because I just had to see it!
Here is his house before the plane arrived:

The neighbor finally asked my why I was parked there taking pics. Don’t blame her – I’m sure I looked suspicious!

Here is the plane coming around the final curve to his house. All the street signs are about 18″ off the grount so the wings don’t hit them.

Another picture of the plane coming in.

The plane parked safely in the driveway!

Just about that time our local tv station arrived to do a story on pilotsnpaws and Raine. Here is Raine being “interviewed’

Just look at that face. The face of rescue folks!

I just love a good happy story! Just warms the ole heart!

Good job Chris of All Ears Basset Sanctuary. I cannot thank you enough for helping all of the Kentucky hounds in the past, present and I am sure in the future!

We love you in bassethoundtown!

More flying hounds later….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

    Awwww, I hope they fix that hip soon. That’s got to be painful. Poor thing!

    I had no idea that there was such a thing as an airplane community! How cool is that?

    Thanks for sharing Chris and Cat! I really enjoyed that story.
