What happens if the dog needs to go to the bathroom? Where do they go. I imagine an accident by the animal would stink up the entire plane cabin. They must account for this somehow?

I wondered the same thing when I recently saw a story & photos of an emotional support miniature horse on a US airline.

A local veteran who has a professionally-trained service dog to help with his PTSD applies a 'doggy diaper' to the back section of his canine when traveling in an enclosed, group situation. He makes sure the dog tries to "better hurry" (the cue the dog has learned to try to relive herself) before boarding the vehicle.

@deepwaterdotter Most dogs on planes are not professionally trained service dogs though. They are people's pets. People who pass them off as emotional support animals. Huge difference.

Yikes. Even with a diaper, it's gonna stink!

Professionally trained service dogs have impeccable manners and are thoroughly house broken. They don't have "accidents".
The airlines have supposedly cracked down on so-called emotional support animals so they should be few and far between.

I am a frequent flier and have never noticed an issue. Service dogs are impeccably trained. When we fly with our very small job..she gets nothing Tom eat or drink for a couple of hours before we leave and stays in her travel kennel. No issue ever.

No one uses doggie diappers....LOL Whether it's a comfort dog, llama, alligator or camel; the animals just do their business wherever they happen to be. The flight attendants clean it up, as well as they can.
