KANSAS CITY, Miss., May 30 (UPI) --A US Airways flight from Los Angeles to Philadelphia was forced to make an emergency landing in Kansas City after a service dog started pooping in the aisle and the flight crew was unable to contain the mess.
The passengers aboard US Airways Flight 598 could only sit back and watch while a big dog defecated in the aisle not once, but twice.
After the dog went to the bathroom for the first time about an hour into the flight, the crew did their best to deal with the mess but they were unable to contain the smell.
"An hour later, it still smelled bad, and after they cleaned it all up, it pooped again," Passenger Steve McCall told INSIDE EDITION. "A couple of people started dry-heaving, a couple of people were throwing up."

Somebody open a window!
Tough break with the smell, but I’m almost sure I would have rather held my nose and toughed it out than waited through the emergency landing etcetera.
He had the fish.
I was on a 10 hour C130 flight. The guy next to me and the guy across form me both puked in their helmets. Emergencu poo? Come on.
They should have taken him out to the poop deck
They couldn’t pick it up with paper towels and put it down the toilet? Or put it into a plastic bag and seal it? Good grief, it’s not that difficult.
Picked the wrong week to give up sniff glue.
Poor poopy, the question is how long had it been since poopy had seen anything but the inside of an an airport?
Depends on how “loose” it was. Just say’n ;-)
Maybe these particular sculptures weren’t exactly rock solid. If you know what I mean.
Two comments:
Doggy DEPENDS. Work every time.
On a flight from Ban Methuot to Saigon in an old DC 4, one of my interpreters brought along a dog he had bought for his children.
Needless to say the dog barked and stank up most of the cargo hold. However, the ARVN general and his wife we able to sit up near the cockpit where there was little smell.
RANK has its privileges when it comes to a RANK dog.
Singing “Saigon from a DC4” (look up the Flatlanders song of similar title)
anybody know if the bill in the CA legislature to have dogs eat at the table with their owners in restaurants passed?
I Hate When That Happens
I’ve picked up some pretty soft poops from time to time. You’ve just got to grit your teeth and do it.
Use what comes to hand. A spatula and a plastic bag, for instance, sponges and paper towels. They could afford to throw the spatula out if they didn’t want to clean it—a lot cheaper than making an unscheduled landing.
“There we were over Macho Grande when the s**t hit the floor.”
A crappy airline gone to the dogs. Pretty telling-—
Reminds me of that old Gary Larson “Farside” cartoon where the dog teacher directs the dog students’ attention to the blackboard where it states “the world is your toilet”.
Should have made the dam dogs owner clean it it up or change the bastard with interfering with a flight crew
