Celebrating Our Canine Co-Pilots

A Tribute to the Pawsome Co-Pilots of Our 3PL Team

🐾 We are inspired by National Dog Day to take a moment to celebrate our best friends who always have our backs—our dogs! Like a trusted co-pilot guiding us through the skies of shipping and logistics, these loyal companions are by our side through every adventure, tail wagging, ready for the next mission. At Shipping Pilot, we know that a good co-pilot makes all the difference, whether in the cockpit or in life. That’s why we asked some amazing team members to share stories about their favorite co-pilots—their dogs!
