[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well the flight attendant should be fired. However, people really should not fly with brachycephalic dogs at all. Their shortened snouts cause all sorts of breathing problems and there’s a reason why many airlines don’t allow them to fly in cargo anymore. Flying in the cabin is safer but really, just leave them home. [/quote]

If the family had been allowed to stow the carrier under a seat like they should have been able to do and as they had expected to do - this would not have been a problem.

The dog died because it was placed in a compartment with little air and the dog basically suffocated as would any other living thing creature.  Poor puppy, I feel so bad for that family.

As I said, the flight attendant should be fired.  That doesn't change the fact that, if you insist on owning one of these dogs and supporting the abomination that the breed standards have become, you should at least prioritize their health and not force them to fly with you.  Brachycephalic dogs are already at greatly increased risk of respiratory issues, flying with them just makes that so much worse.  [/quote]
