A Few More Boonies

My name is Lauren - I am one of the founders of Boonie Flight Project and Saipan Humane Society.

UPDATE 2/18/2025):

We have enough funds raised to fly Dex, Floof, Bandit! They leave next week. THANK YOU!

I am fundraising for just two more dogs before taking a break: Bingo and Fatty. We need just $3k more to get them out of here in March.

The background story:

Boonie Flight Project began in 2021 to save boonie dogs on the U.S. islands of Guam and Saipan, where they would otherwise face euthanasia. Due to years without accessible spay/neuter, there are simply too many dogs and not enough homes on our islands. On Saipan, a small island with a population of only 50,000 people, we face a staggering crisis with over 21,000 dogs, just one animal shelter, and no veterinarian.

The only hope for our Saipan shelter dogs lies in finding homes on the U.S. mainland. Unfortunately, this has been severely impacted by the discontinuation of United Airlines’ pet transport services.

Without this option, we are forced to send dogs circuitous routes through international destinations before connecting with pet-friendly airlines. This costs around $3,000 (give or take $500–$1,000) per dog.

Let's save some dogs.

Thank you,

Lauren
