    wow! thanks for sharing, troubling isn't it? very good investigative work. Alleged or not, that camera video was spot on…. Too bad for the poor pets that have been through this or have died because of the lack of care in some airlines I will copy this link and pass it on!

    @lvoss: Not supporting Eukanuba/Iams but every link on that site is an internal one and they are obviously biased and pushing an animal rights agenda. Some of the copy is over the top but data appears solid. Our western culture seems entrenched in the belief other species do not experience pain nor do they have rich emotional lives.

    Very thought provoking, Terry. I agree with Belinda, the extremists are in a different category altogether. Animals may or may not have rights in any particular city, village, or state. Thank God we have those truly dedicated, hands on advocates that speak out in the court system on behalf of those that have no words. Thank God we have people who rescue animals of all species, to nurture, return to health, re-home, or humanely put down. Thank God that I believe in a God that smiles upon animal advocates. My God lets me believe in the Rainbow Bridge. I do not put animal rights above or below human rights. To me that's mixing apples with oranges . 2 separate issues, 2 different personal views. Neither view makes me less a (Christian) human being. I believe my personal animal advocacy make me MORE a Christian, than less.

    If this is a recent change, has the dog been seen by a vet? When a dog is in pain they will often have a behavorial change and be more grouchy and not like being touched.
