Comment to 'Presa Escapes Plane.'
  • This dog apparently chewed its way out of its crate and when the baggage handlers opened the cargo door. The dog jumped and ran down the runway at NY LaGuardia Airport. The female 90lb Presa decided to cool off with a swim in Flushing Bay. The NYPD rescued the tired girl from the 60 degree water. At least three flights where prevented from taking off. So they could rescue her. After being pulled from the water, she then was reunited with the owner. For those of you who travel with your dogs. It can be a tough reminder how stressful travel can be for us. It can be just as tough for the animals. At least this one had a happy ending.
