A passenger on a Delta flight that had a layover in Atlanta earlier this month says her dog was lost by the airline's staff after she was stopped by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. The passenger, Paula Rodriguez, posted in a Facebook group called "Atlanta Area Lost and Found Pets" with a plea for help after she said she lost her dog on Aug. 18.
"For 2 straight days I have not received any information whatsoever on her whereabouts, and just today I received info from Delta that she escaped her kennel on the airport ramp and that airport staff was looking for her," Rodriguez wrote on Aug. 21, sharing a photo of her dog, Maia.
Rodriguez asked Atlanta-area shelters to keep an eye out for her dog, and asked members of the Facebook group for suggestions. "I am truly desperate and every minute counts," she said.
