Dear supporters, We have just crossed 7,500 signatures. Our target is 1 million. Please continue to share and spread the word. As the message goes out, it is important to keep in mind that this is not the first time a dog has gotten loose on the runway. In 2012, a puppy escaped in New York La Guardia airport during loading. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2135329/Thats-PUPPY-plane-Dog-lets-loose-runway-causing-delays-New-York-airport.html In this case the airport did the right thing. When the dog was too scared to go back into the cage, they located the owner and brought him onto the runway to coax his dog back to safety. The incident was resolved fast and easily. Similarly, in Newark last year, a Dachshund that got loose was also safely caged and loaded after bringing the owner down from the plane. http://nypost.com/2014/01/08/dog-escapes-plane-bolts-across-newark-runway/ However, earlier in March 2017, an airport security bomb sniffer dog was shot dead after a 3-hour standoff at Auckland airport in New Zealand. The incident also sparked public outcry and anger. In such incidents, the logical course of action for the airport staff is obviously to escort the owners onto the runway to control their pet. All airports around the world should adopt this as their protocol since such incidents has happened time and again. Dogs, cats or any other generally docile pets. This is what this petition is about.
