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."

Slightly off topic,but when my son was in training at Parris Island many years ago I sent him a bunch of Gary Larson’s “Farside” books.

He said they made him the most popular guy in the barracks.

Were we lucky and the flight was filled with a liberal in every seat?

I once snagged a frequent flier first class upgrade on TWA from St. Louis to San Fran. Just before KC, the first class toilet overflowed and the lovely green/blue water flowed all over the first class cabin, finding its way to every corner of the cabin. The stench was awful. Made an emergency landing about 10 PM in KC and waited about 3 hours for another aircraft.

Not ONE DIME of compensation from TWA. Don’t even think I got an apology letter.

It would be if it was all mushy and got into the rug. OTOH I get sick and tired of these “Comfort” animals. One AA flight had a pig wandering up and down the aisle. What makes these people think their “comfort animal” is any cleaner than my dog? They take them into restaurants and food stores.

First off, he’s not a dam dog, he’s a SERVICE Dog dip$hit.

Second the dumba$$ Flight Crew needed to DEAL with the situation NOT cause a dam scene.

For blind people? Who knows. These days you can get a service dog for depression.
