❤️ This One Will Bring Tears! 😭

Lola, a 6-year-old Boxer, went missing after a tussle with her Boxer sister. In an instant, she was gone.
From day one, two sightings helped narrow down the search area. During our first search, the goal was simple cover as much ground as possible. Looking back, I'm convinced Lola was taking shelter inside a barn while heavy thunderstorms rolled through the area. Even though we didn't locate her that night, I couldn't shake the feeling she was still there. I knew if we came back, we'd find her.
About an hour into the second search, the thermal drone picked up a heat signature in the backyard of a large property.
There she was... laid out in the grass, completely exhausted after being missing for three long days.
Finding her was only half the battle.
For nearly an hour, we watched from above as her family slowly worked to gain her trust. Every step was nerve-racking. One wrong move and she could have taken off again. Everyone was holding their breath, hoping this would finally be the moment she'd come home.
Then it happened.
She finally stayed put.
The second her family got their hands on her, the tears started flowing. Three days of fear, sleepless nights, and uncertainty were over in an instant. Watching that reunion unfold from above is something I'll never forget.
This is exactly why I believe so much in this technology. Having the drone overhead during the retrieval allowed us to keep eyes on Lola the entire time and guide her family every step of the way. I truly believe that if we hadn't been able to relocate her, her story could have ended very differently.
To Lola's family thank you for trusting Volunteer Drone Services. It was an honor to help bring your girl home. ❤️

⭐️ Another great example of how thermal drone technology is transforming search and rescue.

From locating missing pets to helping save human lives, thermal drones allow responders to cover more ground, find people faster, and improve outcomes when every minute counts.

🚁 Cover more ground. Save valuable time. Save lives.

Great work by the Tennessee Highway Patrol Aviation Unit! 👏

Tennessee Highway Patrol aviation units helped local law enforcement find an 83-year-old man with limited mobility after he went missing in West Tennessee. Aerial images show rescuers saving the man, who was found clutching his dog in the middle of a field. ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/mrx7s4ms

🚨 SHE SURVIVED THE WILD... TWICE. 🐾
Clarissa is a rescue who survived months living in the wild before finally being trapped and finding her forever home. Just two weeks later, a routine walk turned into another fight for survival. When her leash startled her, she panicked, slipped free after it became hung up, and disappeared.
The next morning, her AirTag gave one final ping on the same side of the river where she had gone missing. But when we launched the thermal drone, the search took an unexpected turn. Clarissa had already crossed the river and made her way into a heavily wooded area where no one expected her to be.
Just under two hours into the search, we located her using advanced thermal drone technology. Finding her was only half the battle. It took nearly 20 minutes of patience before she built enough confidence to stay put and let her owner safely approach.
Clarissa suffered severe pad damage to her front paws, but today she's back where she belongs—her paws wrapped, surrounded by love, and sleeping like the queen she is. ❤️

🐾 BARKLEY’S STORY 🐾

Some recoveries remind us why experience and advanced thermal drone technology matter.

Barkley, a 3-year-old, 10-pound Shih Tzu, disappeared into a tall hayfield. Hidden beside a lone tree, he was nearly impossible to spot from the ground. Using advanced thermal drone technology, we were able to locate Barkley and safely reunite him with his family.

This is another reminder that when every minute matters, having the right technology—and the experience to use it—can make all the difference.
