Crazy Huh? Roll Eyes

Following this also yesterday on a Air New Zealand ATR flying domestically from Invercargill-Nelson was forced to turn around back to Invercargill after 10min in air due to a greyhound dog escaped from the cargo box up front and was running around free barking with passengers hearing it was told to the crew and one went down to check it out he saw the dog and went straight back up and plane was turned around. As soon as the aircraft touchdown and the door was opened the dog ran out and spent close to a hour running around the airport with crew and passengers chasing it before it jumped into the cop car and was taken off....The dog was travelling upto Nelson for dog training school there  Silly Dog....

The airline is considering today if it will take it back onboard with them.
