- responsibility for the dog means you should never be irresponsible enough to allow an airline to transport it the usual way

OP, you and your dog kick ass.

I don't mind the story. TR with pics makes it better.

Scamming the system by pretending to be disabled would make you a huge douchebag.

my dog means the world to me. if i was 100% certain of her safety and confident in the airline's ability to get her back to me, i would not be considering this plan. but the fact is that i can't count on the airlines to ensure my dog's safety. even members of my family have related their troublesome experiences to me. i've read many horror stories online. and if an airline can lose a VIP, best-of-breed show dog, i can't help but worry that they could possibly somehow lose mine. especially when i'm traveling out of the country. (it doesn't help that i've had to rescue my dog from a thief seconds before he disappeared with her in his truck...)

bottom line is that i would much rather keep my dog with me at all times.

My hissing viper means the world to me.

My friend's tiger means the world to him.

My mom's vial of influenza means the world to her.


You see where I'm going? You're a douchebag for making other people deal with your dog because you are too selfish to fly it the normal way. It's an ANIMAL.

I liked the pictures.

You're a huge douchebag for doing this.

Have fun in Mexico.

My friend's father did this and it worked. He was flying from Minnesota to California and it was too warm for the dog to be in the cargo hold so he explained to them that she was a epilepsy dog and she walked through security and sat on the floor for the flight. No vest needed. If it matters, he's foreign and a doctor, so used to lying to people and getting his way.

what makes him a liar, being foreign or being a doctor?

There could be an awesome joke in here.

Nice trip report. Are you back in the states yet? Will there be any sort of quarantine?

1. He said he was moving there.
2. I thought he was quarantined in Mexico.
