First time this has happened to me I've flown with my dogs to New Mexico 4x now. I haven't done it in 3 years though since last week. Well they always had me take them out of the carrier to bring them through the metal detector with me, but this time they also took us aside with the dogs in our arms (hubby had 1 and I had the other) and they swabbed our hands and ran the cloth through a machine looking for chemical residue. :eek: I, innocent me, had to ask why they did that, and the guy told me that people do BAD things to animals to get drugs onto planes!!!!! :mad: I was HORRIFIED!!!! I mean totally HORRIFIED!!!! I hugged my pups so close and told the guy that that was DISGUSTING and that my boys are my BABIES and I could not imagine an animal being hurt in that way. He looked so sad and said something like people can be monsters. |
It doesn't surprise me at all, sadly. People do horrid acts for money. It's just how the greedy operate. Sorry you had to go thru that, but I sure am glad they are checking things thoroughly at security! |
Reading stories like this makes me really dispise people sometimes:mad::mad:!! Using animals for their dirty deeds is dipicable! |
So sad what this world has come to. |
they have been swabbing hands for some time now, maybe a year. It is sad, but it is not just for drugs it is also for explosives. And when you think about it not really that surprising, if these idiot suicide bombers have no regard for their own life, or other human life, they most likely do not care much about dogs. Some of these countries these people come from as a rule rather than an exception have very little respect for pets or women for that matter. |
oh that is so sad, I have seen mommies teach babies to steal so I guess it is along the same line. so sad |
I didn't know that they used Dogs that way. it makes me totally sick. It's a good thing I don't work for the Border Patrol, if I found something like that happening...wow :mad: |
oh it IS disgusting what people will do to animals, drug smuggling notwithstanding. Remember the guy who had an endangered parrot in his pants on a flight who got arrested? The bird lived, but what a hellacious journey! :mad: :thumbdown |
Very sad what people will do |
Small dogs like that??? |
