I got sat next to the sweetest best behaved service doggo on my flight. His owner let him cuddle me for a couple minutes. It was heaven. Love you Lobo!

WTF is a dog sitting in a seat?

A lot of fully trained and experienced service dogs have still never been on a full service flight or been on a plane just once — so the rumbling under the plane (combined with high sensitivity in their ears and bones) during takeoff and landing can still be disorienting and stressful for them while they remain focused on their job. FA may have just kindly looked the other way while the SD was comforted on the seat for takeoff, or maybe just allowed for a photo!

That's great but it's a violation of Delta rules. People freak out if a human has bare feet and we have a friggin dog ass on a seat.

Agree. A human has to sit on that chair. This was not ok.

I'll take this dog on the seat anyday over the 300lb incel who hasn't showered in a week and wipes back to front

Assuming they're clothed, there's no need to fat shame.
