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

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.

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.

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. 🧡🇺🇸

@Mmmkay10 3 года назад

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:-)

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!

@whizbang7130 3 года назад

Loved this story. So nice and kind of this man to use his resources and talent to help these animals.

@mindakahn9964 3 года назад

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.

This is just the story I needed today.

@agf1700 3 года назад

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.

@melorchardiii5899 3 года назад

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?

@jerrycallender9927 3 года назад

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.

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.

@IamSquirrel Год назад

I adopted a cat from my local shelter and he was transported from Louisiana. I wonder if he was flown here by this kind man. ❤

@veramae4098 3 года назад

Been volunteering once a week at local animal control. My intent was to walk dogs, but the first one I did nearly pulled me off my feet! Typically, they have large, untrained dogs. So I've spent most of my time cuddling cats. Still fun. Try it. Be the change you want to see.
