Re: airline workers kicked his service dog

these are the doggies my momma is gonna be helping in the training of--she is currently seeing what goggies are suitable for training and with whom to match em.
this program is specific for veterans suffering traumatic brain injury and ptsd. i think is awesome. thankyou for posting--mebbe using this as a tool, something can be added to the training of the goggies as well as the education of the airlines personnel.

Re: airline workers kicked his service dog

Disgusting. Instant firing would be too lenient.... a choice between 5 minutes in a small room with non-disabled vets, or 5 minutes in a small enclosure with a different kind of "service" dog...perhaps a staffy or a dobermann.

Re: airline workers kicked his service dog

toomany employees do not understand hidden disabilities.
brain damage is not understandable by any folks. is a damn shame--they need to educate the employees as to how to treat folks with invisible disabilities, instead of kicking them(or their care animals) and fouling the lives with stressful happenings, as they are prone to doing.

Re: airline workers kicked his service dog

The problem wasn't an inability to deal compassionately with a disabled man and is dog....it was beyond rude, it was low down nasty mean. And that in a "customer service" post. If the service dog had torn the bugger a new thruhull, you can be sure the dog would die for it. What's happening to this world? Get me outta here....
