United screwed the pooch again...

[QuickNDirty]

I guess this story is a little less ridiculous than that chick that flushed her hamster down the toilet because a spirit employee told her to...

On Monday night, a dog died in a plane after a United Airlines flight attendant forced the dog into an overhead bin.

I’d stuff that bitch into an over head compartment of a plane that was grounded for a few weeks and walk away. There’s shit you don’t do to a dog let alone a puppy. That was someone’s family member and someone’s best friend.

 

[QuickNDirty]

I dunno wtf is the deal with people, but I'd never stuff my dog in a fucking carryon bag. Couldn't have been very good 'best friends' letting some flight attendant retard stuff their dog into an overhead bin.

Poor dog had no one looking out for it.

It's a Pug. They're a brachycephalic (flat-faced) breed, along with English Bulldogs, Boston Terriers, etc. They will heat stroke in normal temperatures with just minimal activity, not to mention the O2 depletion in that area due to lack of ventilation. Placing one in an overhead bin was a death warrant. Stupid flight attendant should be prosecuted. I can't understand why anyone would think it even "might" survive.

Nothing personal but the last thing I want to sit next to (other than a child) is a lap dog. All animals should be in pet crates.
I cant seem to get in line with the support animal thing either. Service animals yes, comfort dogs or pets-- no.

The stupid flight crews have turned in to a bunch of power mad wannabe tyrants. They are mad about their work conditions & pay and corporate BS, so they take it out by being as vile to the passengers as possible.

That flight crew that ordered the people to put their puppy in the compartment should be given a chance to experience the exact same thing the puppy experienced.

I'm sure if the family had flatly refused the evil flight crew would have probably gone whining to the police to come beat them up & drag them off for "not obeying my ORDERS" BS type garbage that they do. Some people like me would have just told them no & if you don't like it, tough and if you want to send your goons to kick me off the plane, fine, I'll leave & I'll drive me & the dog & sue you later. (or just get a little private justice in my own good time and cal it quits on the suing) Others get intimidated and obey little dictator wannabes.

So much fail on both the owner and United.

I'm gonna have to agree with the bunny on this one.
Ditto for people who bring their dog with them to family get togethers, parties, holidays, etc. without first asking if it's OK.
My brother in law brought their lap dog to our house shortly after we bought the place and they knew we had a cat that didn't like the son of a bitch to begin with. Then the fucker went and did the shitty ass slide on the bedroom carpet and left a damned skidmark.
Fuck that!

I can sympathize.
We had a family member that had a English sheep dog.
SOB acted like it was on crack 24/7.
Me and Dad had just finished applying reflective tint to the sliding glass doors.
A perfect installation I might add.
Soupbone had it fucking destroyed in a day.
Still can't believe he didn't shoot that walking rug.

Not the fault of the dog, wrong breed for the human.
"Sheep Dogs" and similar herding ones along with quite a few other breeds have to have constant intense exercise, so either put them to work, play hard with them all day long, or get 2 or 3 of them and let them play in the yard all day to get tired out.
Breeds like that are non stop intense energy till they collapse.

They should get something like a hound that once grown will be happy with an hour long hard run each day & some play time & then will spend the rest of the day sleeping on anything comfortable, will find you and then lay down to sleep at your feet.

i love dogs, not people.
we have a plant nursery open to the public and you can not immagine how many people think they can show up unload their pets and want to walk through the property,
it floors me, not one person has asked if they could, they all assume its perfectly fine, and it aint...
i had one stupid bitch, and i mean it, stupid bitch that i dont care if i get her stupid money or not, get out with two dogs, come into my building, yes i said building.
i told her i have 2 german sheppards running around, and while she starts to tell me its ok, along comes the girls...

people, i was being nice to the bitch by phrasing it that way, she should have packed up and split.

now, the girls arent going to hurt anything but its looks like it, she told me to put up the dogs, i told her to take her fucking dogs and get, because my dogs belong here and hers should never have gotten out of the car.

theres a time and place for everything, people these days have no respect for each other the way they impose their lives and pets on others.

i dont want to sit next to someone with a cutchy coo fucking dog, cat, fucking feret, nothing.

sidenote, kids...
keep your little fucking monsters at home if you dont have any control over them. we all know if an otherwise sick kid is having a tough trip, verses a pain in the ass that shouldnt be let out in public

I understand this.
Couldn't shoot the owners, against the law or something.
Have a Border Collie btw.

WOW! I so glad i read this. I was just getting ready to ship my darling black phase wolf girl who is like my daughter by United.

Then I read this:

"United’s animal foibles got the attention of Sen. John Kennedy, an animal lover and Republican from Louisiana, who sent a strongly worded letter to United’s president Scott Kirby.

“I write to demand an immediate explanation for the number of animals who have died recently in United Airlines’ care,” the senator wrote.

Kennedy cited statistics from the U.S. Department of Transportation that show that 75% of all animal deaths on airplanes happen on United:

“Eighteen of the 24 animals who died in major U.S. airlines’ care last year were in the care of United. Another 13 animals in United’s care suffered injuries last year,” he wrote. “For comparison, Delta and American each reported two animal deaths.”

Fuck that, if I send her at all it will be on a different carrier.

 

[W54/XM-388]

It was some time ago, but I had good success with American Airlines shipping puppies.
They took the time to check weather reports for expected ground temperatures before and after flight before approving the bookings.

I looked into American but the crate is too big. that leaves Delta, who doesnt have nearly as good of schedulde as United.

It used to be that they asked "smoking or non-smoking" whereas then it seems to have turned into "medicated or unmedicated" and now it looks like "breathing or not-breathing".

And no, it WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE funny. Not even sarcastic.

Not taken that way, but Im pretty fragile right now. I watched this girl get born on 25 Dec. 16 and have been with her every day since. Her love is big as a house and unconditional. Unfortunate circumstances may force me to relocat her and kts like losing a daughter. Im not a 'whiner" but damn if Im not about to cry.

 

[alfack]

Almost as bad as the fuckstick that fed a live puppy to a snapping turtle in front of his students.

 

[W54/XM-388]

I'm assuming the dog will be a bit unhappy as well, as she probably is fully bonded with you and might have a bit of a time in a new place & new people. Hopefully it works out okay for you.

 

[jrassy]

The airlines ought to refuse to have pets in the cabin period. Or how about the proud owner of the little shit machines gets to pay for the headphones for all the flights passengers. I give zero fucks about this dog. Even less about the people that think traveling on airlines with fifi is their right, or even a good idea.

I always laugh when people say a pet is a family member. If they're such a fucking family member you better hope your house never catches on fire because then, you're going to have to decide whether you rescue your wife or little son or daughter or the dog. What to do? What to do?

What douchebaggery. You save the kids first, then the wife, then the dog. As fellow member Switchblade' put it..."The family dog is...family."

 

[Frankly]

If your body parts extend over the seat and into mine you should be buying a second ticket. Same for dogs and crying babies.

At least the dog can comfort the motherless kids.

An accusation of Douchebaggery coming from you? Even more to laugh about.
