No... security is looking for weapons and dangerous things, they could care less about a dog. Plus security works for the airport... they have no idea what airline allows dogs or not or if there is a fee and if you paid it. Believe me, I lived the nightmare of sweating and hoping and praying I'd get to go to my moms for xmas when I was flying 2 dogs in 1 carrier by myself when it was 'against airline policy' but noone even looked. They try to be STRICT on the website to deter people from trying... but those who do do it generally they are not bad to work with. Ive never heard of ANYONE getting turned away yet. Im sure it happens sometimes though.
