After about an hour, airport staff sent her a photo of Bluebell locked in her crate, confirming that she was in the middle eastern kingdom.

Miller told the outlet that she was already anxious about putting Bluebell on an hours-long flight after hearing “horror stories.

While the Koran states that dogs are unclean. Fundamentalist Muslims hate dogs, but other Muslims don’t mind them.

Glad they got their dog back, but I read it’s been traumatized so much by the ordeal, it’s like a different dog. Very anxious and shell-shocked. Poor thing. I hope they can maybe get their dog some behavioral therapy, maybe at a local shelter which offers that, so they and the dog can enjoy their relationship again.

It could have been worse — it could have been shipped to China and ended up as rack de chien or Xi’s appetizer.

The dog took the scenic route, eh?

Years ago, people took pride in their job and excelled in getting the job done right. Now, not so much. Just there for the paycheck since they were employed because they check all the right boxes.

The United States of America used to be was where you could find excellence, and the people who were allowed to immigrate here wanted to be a part of that American dream where hard work an innovation could carry you all the way to the top.

Now, just get to America, get signed up for all the benifits, and you and your family are set for life! Send someone’s child, mail, or dog to the wrong country, no problem! You aren’t expected to actually DO the job correctly!

I have a dog that looks very similar to this one. He is very skittish when it thunders and fireworks. He too ate through our bathroom door during a thunderstorm. I wonder if it’s something with the breed?

I’m glad Bluebell got returned to the couple. Now, could the British couple please move back to the UK, but keep the dog here... 🤓

Indeed it may not be a joke in those parts.

Yes, a dog was shopping. It was a service dog and probably the people knew the owner and what he or she wanted. It was on Twitter.
