It's better to accept responsibility (even if they weren't (the only ones) at fault), than to deny it and have it blow up even worse.
It doesn’t seem that the facts are in question. People are just making theoretical excuses for United. I’m waiting for someone to say maybe the dog was hit by a micrometeor.

* Why was the animal not checked on during the flight? I'm not pointing fingers here, there could be good reasons for that: turbulence, sitting at the window next to one or two older/disabled/POS pax, something else.
So if it were the end of a long day it’s okay to kill a passenger’s dog?
