Major problem! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Oh man I can't imagine the way you felt when you realized he wasn't in his crate! Thankfully they found him though. This could have turned out A LOT worse than muddy fur.

On a happier note, where did you two go on vacation? Was it just the two of you? I have a free airline ticket I need to use by January and I was thinking of going on vaca with Howie

That must have been so frightening for you and Buttercup. Give him extra hugs and kisses.

myteddybear · 10-22-2006, 06:46 PM

Holy cow! I can't even imagine! Thank God though that he is o.k. could have been a very different ending.

Awwww....give him hug and kisses! I'm sorry that had to happen!

YORKIEMOM2B2006 · 10-22-2006, 08:33 PM

I'm glad you found him, that must have been scarey

margaritaville · 10-22-2006, 08:46 PM

Can you tell us what airline? I have to fly in Dec. and I'm thinking of taking mine.

Bnot · 10-22-2006, 09:15 PM

Wow, I know if it had been me.....airport security would have escorted me out both times!

So glad someone found him, and did call you.

Yea, think we all want to know what airline that was! I may have to fly too one day.

WOW, that must have been soooo scary!!!! gosh, I understand airline don't want to be held accountable for luggage, but a living creature is not just luggage!!!!!

chachi · 10-23-2006, 05:16 AM

Dragonfly · 10-23-2006, 06:20 AM

from us!!

red98vett · 10-23-2006, 06:25 AM

POOR BABY !! You didn't know if he was IN the crate to begin with ?

Can I ask how that would happen ? If I were taking my girls on a plane I'd have been talking to them all the way to the airport and making sure they were ok on the ride in the car.....and for REAL making sure they were ok getting on a plane - I know I'm overprotective - but that is PRECIOUS CARGO....but...That's just me ....and I'm sure you were rushed - maybe you didn't close it up ??? Man are you lucky to have him back - poor baby

LuvMySissy · 10-23-2006, 06:34 AM

What an awful experience!! Are you still on vacation and have yet to return? What do you plan for the return trip with your baby? I would think that based on the fact that your baby was not in his crate when you arrived to collect your luggage, they might "make an exception" and allow you to take him on board with you??

If it were me, I would be calling every possible number at the airlines until I found someone who would allow this. It is the least they could do for your distress. Even if the crate door was not locked all the way, I feel this is till unacceptable. They make your pay for your precious cargo in exchange for taking care of it. Good luc, to you and I hope you get some results!!!

i double posted don't know how sorry.

Peters · 10-23-2006, 06:38 AM

poor dog at least you got your baby back a little worse for the wear but back none the less i'm sure verything that happened was on video also maybe you could demand to talk to who is in charge over the whole airport? either way they are at fault and at the very least should pay for the grooming if nothing else. i believe they would have had to call the police to drag me out kicking and screaming!

Julz · 10-23-2006, 06:46 AM

I'm still shaking my head! I can't even IMAGINE such a thing!

It sounds like a TOTAL miracle that you have him with you right now. So he DID make the flight? How on Earth would he have gotten muddy and matted?
