I’m a lover of small fuzzy animals, especially dogs (and select cats). No question in my mind that being around them reduces my stress and puts a smile on my face.
Four Canadian airports, including one in northern Alberta’s Fort McMurray (up in oil country) have introduced pet-therapy dogs for passengers to interact with. Dogs will be stationed around the airport at select times during summer months.

My worst flight ever….
The guy behind me had 2 longhaired cats in a cage under my seat.
Kept bringing each one out for a good scratch.
You could see the stray hairs floating in the air.
Sneeze….Sneeze….
But you’re alternative sounds like a great idea !!
Agree about pets on the plane — with rare exception they don’t belong there. The idea here is that these animals are scattered around the airport to provide folks with a point of stress relief. I sure we’ll hear more about the program in the coming months.
