Albert Rizzi, who is legally blind, was told his guide dog Doxy had to stay under the seat in front of him during the flight....
Two other passenger offered to help him and allowed Doxy to curl up under the seat in front of them.
But Rizzi says after passengers waited more than an hour to take off, the dog became restless and curled up under his legs.
Rizzi said the flight attendant then informed him the dog had to be under a seat or the plane would have to turn around.
