Thoroughly enjoyable to read, though clearly not to experience! I hope your hand didn’t get infected. Clearly both of you deserved a schnapps along with a schnuggle!
Wow, that was quit the escapade. I’m happy all was resolved. I traveled with 2 big Samoyeds and a cat for years. It’s probably more difficult these days, but when I flew with them I showed them a ticket for each animal. I had no issues. But one thing I learned is if you fly big dogs, book a passenger flight with a cargo hold at the back so you can visit your dog mid flight AND check with the pilot to be sure your dog is on the plane. Also ask them to load dogs last. I made big fusses about my dogs welfare, and I’m confident they were treated well because I stayed on top of things. I know that’s experience doesn’t apply to you, but I just wanted to put it out there for everyone.
I always took my cat out of the bag. No pun intended, Lol! No one ever complained.
Absolutely right! But that was nothing compared to what happened when we got to Saudi .. I don’t know what I would have done if he wasn’t on the small side …
Schnuggleware has become my new favorite word! How could she not laugh at that, it was so perfect!
I hope you and ‘Schnuggles’ (Newton) won’t experience any more of that kind of plane-trips and your hand was okay.
Pat him from me!
Ps. I not only laughed loudly of the “schnuggleware”, but also the description of how strong willed was to avoid a bath and especially the one with the driver’s seat!
I did too! I’ll bet when I tell my husband he’ll just look at me lol
Totally unrelated to dogs but I still laugh every time “Frasier” is making the “You ripp-ed dese - you men-de dese” (“Euripides-Eumenides”), and when Fran Fine is telling Mr Sheffield that she’ll go with the kid but she might not come back so quickly from visiting the Middle East because “my people tend to dilly-dally there [in the desert] 😏

love it!
Can’t wait for more adventures with the Havanese. And Ethan! ❤️
Love it! And what a brilliant title! Too bad the flight attendant didn’t find the ‘Shnuggleware’ joke funny ;)
maybe she secretly did :). My accent was I'm sure horrible.
Newton needs to write his memoirs. Maybe you know a good ghost writer. 😎
I’ll let him know! :) We’ve been working on it, as you have been yours, which I’ve been enjoying very much….

Whew! It’s a doggie dog world after all.
