To heck with the comfort of passengers, especially ESA/Service trained dogs.
Seeing eye dogs and dogs that can sense an epileptic seizure are okay, they actually do something to help truly physically vulnerable people.
All others, drive or stay home. You are too fragile to be outside.
Someone was trying to board a plane with a ‘emotional rooster’. If I recall, those animals are supposed to be spayed and neutered, but in Tampa airport, an ‘emotional’ dog gave birth.
Sometimes they bumble those investigations.
I have an emotional support rattlesnake. His name is “Bitey.”
Sounds like you have something to hive, my FRiend
Yeah... and that lady’s emotional support snapping turtle looked really suspicious...
