Imnot surprised. The French are even dafter about their dogs than the British. What’s more they allow them into restaurants. Quite extraordinary.

I'll avoid throwing any personal perspectives into the discussion.

Look at the facilities in the Terminal corridors at PHL ...

They have a similar station at SJC. I'm glad I don't have to take my dog on board... it's hard enough organizing myself to get there.

As do the Germans. Fortunately, the dogs are better behaved than their children, generally.

They do here in Cornwall too. My Labrador often dines out.
He flies in the cabin too. Isles of Scilly skybus have a dog box in the rear of the cabin. I board first with him and sit next to him on the twin otter. 25 mins flight and he can see me and hear me. Big problem is we must be last off. As its only a 19 seater the wait is quite short.

"Roofs" is the plural of roof in all varieties of English. Rooves is an old secondary form, and it still appears occasionally by analogy with other irregular plurals such as hooves, but it is not common enough to be considered standard.

So when did you go to school?

A very long time ago. And my English teacher was a lot older than me.

I’ll be taking my triple buggy into the lounge next month. I think that will raise more eyebrows.

There is a somewhat sleepy black Labrador snoozing in Flounge LGW right now. So they are allowed in.

I am letting sleeping dogs lie. I only noticed as I was leaving for my flight and unfortunately said Lab isn't going to AMS.

Most definitely! What a cutie. You should head over to the Post a Picture of Your Pets thread. My Golden Retriever has made more than one appearance.
