Have to agree with you. Not only do many have really bad BO, many also seem to think that cologne or perfume - sprayed top to bottom, will cover these repulsive odors. ANd what about those who travel when they are obviously sick - coughing and hacking all over the place. Most people I know who have pets that would take them on a flight keep them clean & well cared for so they are healthy. And most dogs won't have a bowel movement unless they find a perfect spot. Babies, unfortunately have no such instinct. And the smell of dirty diapers - whether they are changed or not, is in the air a long time. How appealing is that??

Perhaps you should call them back & ask to speak to their supervisor to get things straightened out.
Sometime lazy employees will say anything to get a perceived complainer off the phone. If the supervisor won't help, keep calling & asking for thier boss's name & extension. Sooner or later they will get the message. There are too many people who give up easily when someone tells them something just to make their own job easier. Keep asking for their name, & their supervisor's name......
But just in case, bring a mask with you - maybe that would help?

Well that's good news. Why would anyone pay Paris Hilton to make an appearance, - especially in Canada? Whoever made the decision to book her should be replaced, after all this wasn't the best choice- Paris has been know to be a bit unreliable at the best of events (and pay) . And it's doubtful her style of entertainment would be appreciated by the people who go to the Calgary stampede. Since she has no talent except for spending her dad's money & being known as a party girl, what was she planning ? talk about her BFFs? Flash her booty? MC a cowboy strip show? Just stand there & let papparatzi take pictures while she gives her best dumb looks?

Aren't there any Canadian celebrities not doing anything or in the area around that time??
Just a thought - like maybe Shania, or one of the western female entertainers - Jann Arden is a great comedian in addition to being popular with all age groups...

I agree - I have 2 small dogs- one 17 lbs. & th eother 26 lbs. (she's old & fat) & one would have to travel in cargo which I think would be horrible for them. Is there not some way that a seat could be purchased for the larger dog? Especially if they are well- behaved - what is the difference. Even if they were barkers- I'd rather listen to that than a baby bellowing & the parents screaming at it to shut up & sometimes losing it & giving it a spanking ( as if walloping a kid is going to teach him to stop crying??)
