On March 27, Hartz Loving Paws and Pilots to the Rescue's first mission of 2025.

March 2025, Hartz Loving Paws™ sponsored a life-saving flight in partnership with Pilots To The Rescue, an NYC-based nonprofit organization. The flight transported a dozen dogs and cats from various overcrowded shelters in Georgia and Alabama to shelters in New York and New Hampshire so they can have a better chance of adoption. The mission was also in collaboration with a newly formed group, Seuk’s Army, that celebrates the legacy of pilot Seuk Kim who tragically lost his life in a plane crash in November 2024 while performing an animal rescue mission.

Hartz Loving Paws and Plots to the Rescue transported both dogs and cats from southern shelters.

August 2025, Our second sponsored flight of the year with Pilots to the Rescue was a huge success! We teamed up with the amazing influencer @fostertalespt to successfully transport 25 dogs and cats from overcrowded shelters in Georgia to the North.

Brooke from Foster Tales Puppy Therapy helps support the social and emotional well-being of children and staff in elementary schools using her foster puppies. We are proud to support partners like Brooke who champion mental health while also ensuring their foster pups receive vital early social development.

Thanks to this mission, these 25 pets now have a clear path to a better future and a quicker journey to finding Unconditional Love with their forever families.

October 2025, Hartz Loving Paws™ and Pilots to the Rescue™ teamed up for the third time in 2025 to provide 24 dogs a new chance at life on a flight from South Carolina to loving rescues in the North. Some of the pawsengers came from heartbreaking situations — shelters at capacity, limited time left, nowhere to go. Thanks to Hartz Loving Paws support and rescue partners Eleventh Hour Rescue, Freedom First Rescue, Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter, and Social Tees Animal Rescue, their futures look bright.
