S1 E5 – This Is Why We Do It | Emotional Rescue Pet Reunions

In the final episode of Season 1, the mission comes full circle. Cheryl Martinez of Pilots To The Rescue excitedly calls Lorri from Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter to share the news: we did it. The rescue transport was a success. The animals were warmed, cuddled, flown, and delivered—safely and with love. As Cheryl walks Lorri through every heartfelt moment, their shared passion for animal rescue shines. Two women, deeply committed to saving lives, reflect on what it took to get these shelter pets from near-euthanasia to forever homes. And then, the moment we all wait for: our incredible volunteers knock on doors across Virginia, delivering each rescued dog and cat into the arms of their adoptive families. Tail wags. Tears. Hugs. Joy. This is why we do what we do. This is the power of community, compassion, and showing up for animals in need. If you’ve ever wondered whether one person can make a difference—this episode is your answer.

While some scenes have been dramatized for storytelling, every featured animal in this episode was rescued and given a second chance at life. This series was created to raise awareness about the growing crisis of shelter overcrowding, to spotlight the heroes working behind the scenes, and to inspire more people to adopt—not shop.
