i can't believe the insensitive postings from people on this site. you may not care what happens to this poor dog but you should keep your hateful calous feelings to yourself. hopefully you will never be lost in the cold. you people need to check yourself and your conscience. remember a dog is a living creature that deserves all the consideration and sympathy a human deserves

deal with it

Losing a dog is like losing a child?? That's messed up.

I can't believe those of you who take such a emphathetic attitude- Obviously you don't have a pet of your own, because if you did, you would understand that they are like your children. I'm so sick of people who take this attitude with animals like they don't matter- in my opinion, losing my dog would be like losing a child. Couple that with the fact that this is clearly either a) the airline, or b) the airport's fault, and therefore it is their responsibility to take measures to find the dog.

The city can invest hundreds of man hours searching for a stupid dog (along with use of a helicopter - can't be cheap), and they can't afford to do other, apparently less important things. Like, say, put more money towards foser care, education, helping the homeless? If I were the mayor, I'd tell the dog owner she was shit outta luck, or at least make sure this work was being done on the airline's bill.

I'll bet anything an employee opened the crate "just to pet" the poor dear. I know people who put "vicious dog" stickers on the carrier when they fly so that no one is tempted to go near it.
