Traverse City has (or had) a famous airport dog
a border collie named Piper who worked at the Cherry Capital Airport as part of the wildlife control team and became a local celebrity with her own social-media following and community appearances.
Basically, Piper the bird-chasing dog wasn’t just doing airport work — she was so beloved that she became one of the most talked-about town personalities, complete with goggles, parade appearances, and her own Instagram!
