My favorite animal story took place last year.Flying SEA-ANC,I'm in 1C and a women in 2D had a small dog in a carrier that barked the entire way.After the first 15 mins.I turned around and gave her the eye,she seemed to be ignoring the barking.Waited another 15 mins. and turned around again,she was still ignoring the barking.
At this point I'm getting pissed off,because she hasn't even attempted to quiet the dog or find out what's wrong.
The FA was no help at all.So barking lasted all the way to ANC.Needless to say as soon as I got home I fired off several emails to AS.Never heard back.
So now I say no animals in cabin except service dogs.(at least they know how to behave)
