WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (CBS12) \u2014 15 beagles rescued from a Wisconsin breeding and research facility took another step toward a forever home with a rescue flight bound for New York.<\/p>\n

Pilots coordinated the transport mission in coordination with Pilots To The Rescue. This nonprofit flies at-risk animals from overcrowded shelters and rescue groups to areas where they have a better chance of adoption.<\/p>\n

The dogs originated from Ridglan Farms<\/a>, a Wisconsin facility that has been at the center of a large-scale effort to relocate thousands of beagles into homes and rescue organizations across the country.<\/p>\n

Friday’s flight was conducted in partnership with Big Dog Ranch Rescue<\/a> in Loxahatchee Groves and Second Chance Rescue NYC. Once in New York, the beagles will receive care and be matched with adoptive families.<\/p>\n

Organizers said the mission marks Pilots To The Rescue<\/a>‘s second transport involving beagles from the Wisconsin facility.<\/p>\n

The nonprofit’s volunteer pilots use donated aircraft and flight time to move animals to rescue and adoption centers, helping reduce overcrowding and increase adoption opportunities.<\/p>\n

The beagles departed from Palm Beach International Airport Friday morning, where rescue groups and volunteers worked together to safely load the dogs onto the aircraft before takeoff.<\/p>\n

Big Dog Ranch Rescue has played a major role in the nationwide effort to save and rehome beagles released from the facility, helping hundreds of dogs begin new lives with adoptive families.<\/p>\n

Photos and video from the rescue mission were expected to be released following the flight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.
