Poodle on the loose

In Boston, “Choochy” the poodle caused a bit of an ordeal at the Boston airport when she escaped from her kennel as airport personnel were trying to unload the kennel. These same airport personnel could not catch the poodle for OVER SEVENTEEN HOURS. Is it just me or does that sound crazy? Should they have called in the Dog Whisperer? Being a new dog owner myself, I know that sometimes my dog thinks it’s kind of funny to run away from you when you want her to stop and stand still. However, for 17 hours? It would seem that airport personnel would be trained to handle these types of situations as you know there is someone out there whose flight got delayed because of this whole mess. I can already see the lawsuit now. Luckily flights were only delayed for 30 minutes but I read this article that said 15 firefighters and similar personnel chased after the dog. I just find this story so funny. Choochy on the loose!

If someone were to bring a lawsuit, it would be difficult to classify the damages. The article stated that flights were delayed for 30 minutes which I would not see has a material delay but I would certainly think it is negligent for airport personnel to not know how to catch a dog.
