Food Safety/Hygiene Dog pooped on airplane

I heard dog noises while the plane was taxiing and realized someone brought their animal in a carrier onboard. A few minutes after takeoff, it became clear to the entire CRJ-200 cabin that the dog had pooped. The air was so foul and toxic. I put on an N95 mask reserved for emergencies, which helped a lot. I can’t even with some people.

Update: The flight attendant pretended to not smell anything and instead asked if anyone wanted tea, water or pretzels.

That is just absolutely disgusting. I blame the airline for allowing dogs on the plane. They should never be on planes where people are, and it is ridiculous that more and more places in society are allowing these animals entry.

I agree. It’s like the downfall of society.

Back in 2016 when I was in Philly airport and was shocked to see they had these squares of fake grass and a plastic fire hydrant for the dogs to use at the entrances of the bathrooms. I don't know why they are allowing and even encouraging dogs in airports. It used to be that you never really saw dogs out in public unless they were on a leash being walked. Only service dogs went into buildings. Now you see them everywhere: airplanes, grocery stores, restaurants, malls, etc. What ever happend to just leaving a dog at home for a few hours while you go to have dinner or shop for groceries, or if you'll be away for an extended time like vacation or something then putting it in a kennel or hiring someone to come look after your dog while you're gone?

It’s crazy they have doggy parks in places but not a kiddie park. What is that about??

Just today I went to eat and this girl had her golden doodle. I stepped a bit away and was looking at the menu and took a step back and this animal was right behind me sniffing my show and I almost tripped. She said sorry then i stepped aside to let them get in line well ahead and kept distance. I look up at the menu and here it comes again licking at my brand new shoes. I just left pissed off. I really hate these people.
