That’s disturbing! I had to stop reading the article.

I realize that size prevents it being an option for most dogs, but ones that can fit in a carrier should be in one and — at the very least — dogs should be muzzled and harnessed. I don’t care if “he wouldn’t hurt a fly.” I wouldn’t plunk my cat down next to a person and expect them to be happy. Why do people expect it with dogs?

The attack was so severe that Marlin Jackson suffered "extensive facial damage," including lacerations to his nose and mouth, and bled so profusely "that the entire row of seats had to be removed from the airplane," according to the suit, which was filed Friday in Georgia's State Court of Fulton County.
Jackson was seated in a window seat on a Delta flight from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to San Diego International Airport in June 2017, the suit says.
Fellow passenger Ronald Mundy was already in his middle seat "with his large dog attempting to sit in his lap," according to the suit, which says that Delta's policy required large emotional-support dogs be secured on the floor.
"Defendant Delta allowed the large animal to remain in Defendant Mundy's lap while Delta employees passed through the area in open disregard of said policy," the suit states.
Jackson asked Mundy if the dog would bite and Mundy assured him the animal was safe. As Jackson buckled his seat belt, the dog started to growl and shift in Mundy's lap, according to the lawsuit. Jackson again asked if the dog was safe, and Mundy said it was.
Without warning, the dog lunged at Jackson, biting him several times in the face and pinning him against the window, the suit states.
"The attack was briefly interrupted when the animal was pulled away from Mr. Jackson. However, the animal broke free and again mauled Mr. Jackson's face," according to the lawsuit.

I can’t believe how many people keep their dogs unleashed in local parks where the signs clearly say “all pets must be leashed.” No it’s not cute when your unleashed dog knocks over my toddler “to say hello.”
