Probably a good idea to give your pit bull a tranquilizer prior to sticking said pit bull in the cargo hold of an airliner.

    Jeez. If that had gone worse, what the heck would the NTSB report have looked like?

    After five hours in coach between a fat guy and a screaming child, I've been tempted to do worse.

    Well, to be fair, the worst dog-damage I ever saw was created by a Border Collie who peeled off dry wall, ripped out wiring and destroyed a couch kind of from the inside out over the course of maybe 6 or 7 hours. 
 
He didn't try to chew metal, though.

    Not the first time, I'll wager! LOL! 
 
Last year when I called Continental Airlines to have a dog shipped from Orlando to Houston the ONLY question they asked was "is it a pitbull 6 months or older?"

    Had the owner asked for the dog to be tranquillized, they would have showed it a movie.

    TCASIf I may ask what this stands for?
Beggin Strips should have been strapped around the cage to distract it from eating the plane.
