First of all, Delta has a policy about no pit bulls due to getting sued after a dog attacked a passenger on a flight.
Second, they admit the dog was a boxer/pit bull mix, so this is NOT a case of every dog being a pit bull.
Third, ship the dog in a crate in the hold should have been the way to do it, since the dog was NOT being used as a service animal at that time. It was on its way to its new owners.
Four, whiny people complaining because they don’t get their way on social media is an instant turn off for me! I am sick of companies rolling over on good common sense decisions because of social media whiners!
I agree with everything you said. Kudos.

Oh, that’s exactly what it is. You admit the policy was to bar pitbulls. Then you admit the policy didn’t apply since the dog was not a pitbull. Just another instance of calling any big muscular dog a pitbull. If you want to ban pitbulls, then come up with a non-discretionary standard that defines a pit bull. (Other than big muscular dog.)
This is so much like the liberal gun banners wanting to ban something because of it’s looks. Ban black scary guns. Same concept.
