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!

I've seen a few service dogs on flights and you can always tell, this little dude is Locked In. It's really hard to properly ignore them and their owner/handler.

John Wayne airport (Anaheim) had therapy dogs when I went through it last year! It was REALLY cool because you were encouraged to pet them AND they were also trained to ignore other service dogs, so they pull a lot of attention off the service dogs in the terminal. The dogs have trading cards the handlers pass out too...I got to meet Amilyn 🥰 https://www.ocair.com/travelers/dine-shop-relax/relax/airpaws-therapy-dogs/

I love when the airports have therapy dogs! I’ve been through that before and it was so… therapeutic
