Right now, my dog is inside the cargo holding area and we will not get to see him until we arrive in the United States about 20 hours from now.

Everything went smoothly but the asiana airlines people insisted that we were not able to leave food or water for our dog. Although we had everything ready as described on the website (food with labeled instructions, water dispenser etc...) we were not allowed to give any of this to our dog. And the flight attendants at our port of origin seemed confused about what would happen to the dog during layover. We are afraid that our little doggy is cold and alone with no food or water and are very worried about him.

Does anyone know what happens to a dog during layover at Incheon airport? Is there anyone looking after him and making sure he has water and food? Is he able to go for a walk.? It makes me very sad (and worried) to think he may be sitting cold and alone, thirsty and starving in his own filth. Please someone give me some peace of mind about this; or tell me what I can do to make sure my puppy is taken care of. I have another 9 hours of waiting here at the airport before we even get into the plane.

Thank you in advance.
