It's very bad news for the owner and cruelty to the dog. They should be sued for this.

Holy moly 20 inches of snow is like a blizzard. That is so sad about the dog. I had assumed the owner put it in there to save money or something. I wonder whose mistake this was! How awful

According to the news here an air stewardess insisted the dog had to be put in the locker in its flight travel crate! The owner tried to protest but eventually gave in! Sorry but I would have walked off the plane no way would I put my dog in a locker! 20 inches of snow? Wow the UK ground to a halt for 6 inches of snow a week ago! R.I.P Stephen Hawking

Hello, I live all the way in England and even I heard about this. Apparently they forced the owner to put the pup in there. She didn’t want to but I guess she was just following orders :( so so sad! I am a massive dog lover as well so to see that this morning was awful. Hopefully the people responsible lose there job or something.
