[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually the dog has to fit in a carrier under the seat.

Exactly. Sounds like the OP is lying. [/quote]

Why would I be lying about this?? I was shocked. [b]I'm actually going to lodge a complaint with Alaska today.[/b] [/quote]

By all means, please do so. If the airline infringed its own rules, you have to complain, so they can retrain their staff. 
It's very important.

But because you inserted the name of the breed, instead of just saying this dog was not in a carrier and seemed too large for the weight limit... you come across as a crazy anti-pitbull person, and you lose crediblity.

So next time, when you want to complain, only complain about actually disallowed things: weight, carrier. The breed is immaterial.

Joke’s on you, Speech Police PP. It is actually, literally ALL about the breed here. This is from the same FAQ link PP posted above:

“The following Brachycephalic breeds and breed mixtures are prohibited from flying in the cargo compartment on Alaska Airlines:

Dogs
American Pit Bull, American Staffordshire Terrier…..

Why are these breeds allowed to fly in the cabin if they are prohibited from flying in the cargo compartment?

Brachycephalic or "short-nosed" breeds are always at a higher risk of respiratory distress as compared to other breeds and careful consideration should be taken when planning travel. Should you choose to travel with these pets on an airplane, it will still be allowed under the continual care of their owner while in cabin.”

Basically the cargo hold can cause breathing problems for certain—gasp!—***BREEDS*** of dogs and cats.
