OMG!  This story just makes me nuts!  Delta loses a man's dog on a flight to Detroit from Mexico.  I'd go all Jack Bauer on these idiots!   :porthos

I don't get how something so simple can get messed up.  Tag it and load it.  How frakking hard is that people!?!?

It sounds like the dog got out and ran away. Likely the baggage handlers thought he was cute and wanted to play with him, the dog was freaked out and took off, and they can't find him.

Would never trust the airliners to ship my pet. To them they are a piece of luggage.

Am I the only one scared that the title of the article is delta loses an "entire" dog? did they loose half a dog before?

Yeah - that seemed weird to me too.

"Come on people, give us a break. It's the first time we lost an ENTIRE dog..."

"Come on people, give us a break. It's the first time we lost an ENTIRE dog..."

hehe yeah "Sometimes when we are transporting them MAYBE they go into the turbine or MAYBE we have some rituals in certain parts of the pacific but this is first time a live "full" dog was retrieved clap for us please!

"Come on people, give us a break. It's the first time we lost an ENTIRE dog..."

"... because the gremlins usually leave some fur and bones when they've finished their meal."

Mexico... maybe it was a drug dog going rogue, did they count the parachutes? ;)

Hehe I am imagining snoopy jumping out of the plane onto his dog house carrying a bag full of drugs...but OH NOZ the red barren is after them!

Who wants to go Jack Bauer on their asses.  SERIOUSLY, how do you LOSE a DOG.  And HOW do you JUSTIFY giving ONLY $200 as a REFUND but ONLY for YOUR  BUSINESS?!?!?

This just reminds me never to fly Delta again.  This is the worst PR incident they could have done.  "It ran away".  Yeah, I'm sure it ran away. 

Sure.
