United's pet problems

Fox 5 reported that a flight attendant on a United flight from Houston to LaGuardia forced dog owner to put the carrier with her French bulldog in the overhead bin instead of under the seat. Catalina Robledo and her daughter Sophia said they told the flight attendant that a dog was in the bag. United apologized for Coquito's death and accepted responsibility. But the airline issued a second statement saying, "However, our flight attendant did not hear or understand her, and did not knowingly place the dog in the overhead bin. As we stated, we take full responsibility and are deeply sorry for this tragic accident."
