No way that dog should have been in the airport period, and owner is a moron, but so are the parents. Also, the Parents have to bear some fault here, the girl went up to the dogs owner and asked if she could pet the dog. Where were her parents and why did they let her go to the dog in the first place.

I’m so fricking sick of reading these Pit attack stories. This breed is useless and defended by TAF mouth breathing assholes. Low IQ = pit owner. frick pits and their owners.

Some people are legit allergic to dogs. It doesn't even have to attack to kill. I'm surprised there hasn't been a lawsuit over it yet.

Treat every pit bull like a loaded pit bull.

Pit bulls need to be eradicated. Trashy mouth breathers are the only ones who like them anyway.

It’s a tough guy thing.

Our neighbor has 2. 1 is nice the other will nip at you. Yesterday when I was cutting the grass one jumped the fence and was in my yard. I took it opened my gate and let it run. I was terrified when I saw a teenager walking (I hadn't seen her because I was dealing with the dog and she was walking behind the work trailer the neighbor is using to fix up his house). The dog ran after the girl and then ran back to me. The neighbor came out and I told him that if the dog jumps the fence when my daughter is here I'm putting a fricking bullet in it. He looked at me like I was joking and I said if you think I'm joking try me.

This dog is showing clear signs of aggression and has an owner that clearly doesn't care or is too irresponsible to do something about it. Kill it. No one will fault you.

True story:

A patient wanted to bring her “service dog” in the operating room with her during a sterile surgical procedure. I went out to talk to her about it. The “service dog” is an unkempt 40-50 lb mutt that hadn’t had a bath in months. He was literally whining and clawing at my knee the entire time I was talking to her. I even shifted my legs away from it and it then proceeded to claw at my side. The lady was completely oblivious. Eventually I just walked out and told her she would have to reschedule and come back without the dog. People are crazy.

I had a deaf patient who needed her service animal with her to "assist her".
It was a mangy dog who was blind. The reality seemed more like the dog had a "seeing eye person". She was getting a x ray procedure and wanted the dog in the room, but behind a lead shield because she was concerned with the dog being exposed to radiation. The department administrator agreed to all this. The x-ray room was later discovered to be filled with fleas and had to be shut down until it could be fumigated.

Careful baw. I recall a news story about a person in a similar situation being charged at fault for someone else's dog attacking someone. It was something like, you know the dog is a possible threat and YOU let it get out of YOUR control.

I forget the state but ain't that some BS!

Because for some weird fricking reason, it's illegal to make someone prove that a dog is actually certified. Not sure if it's from the ADA or what


Emotional Support Animals aren't covered by the ADA, that's service animals. Service animals don't require training, so there is nothing to certify. They just have to perform a certain task to help with a disability. Obviously a blind person will want a seeing eye dog that doesn't walk them into traffic though, so a lot of them are trained.

Emotional support animals are just pets that some therapist said they should have, doesn't even require that really. Emotional support animals shouldn't get special treatment like service animals, they are just pets.
