Pets in the Cabin - Coming soon on Virgin Australia

[Rembrandt]

Well, the dog shouldn’t have been unrestrained… dogs of any size are permitted on Melbourne trains provided they are on a leash and are muzzled: Animals on public transport - Public Transport Victoria

But again, my question… how do you go travelling in the US or Europe where pets in cabin are fairly common?

Well it's just his opinion just like mine. We're well aware of pets traveling in some so called 'progressive' parts of the world, but we don't have to like it.

People like myself have been inconvenienced by pets and their rude owners far too much throughout our lives, so we just simply prefer not to associate with them..

Well, OK, I guess from what you say you're not a fan of pets.

One example of animals in aircraft cabins I can relate to you, where I had a personal experience of literally sitting next to a large dog on a plane, will possibly make you cringe then.

I was on a UA 737 flight to DEN sitting in seat 1A when a guy and his Australian Shepherd dog (yes, I know they're not Australian) came and sat beside me. He was in seat 1C and the dog had been allocated seat 1B (although it's fair to say that the dog happily curled up on the floor next to the bulkhead (and surprisingly didn't bite anyone for the whole flight). It might also be worth saying that the dog was a mountain rescue dog and was well trained.

You may not be aware, but it is possible to train a dog, as my German Shepherd may grudgingly agree. And yes, of course, I am a rude owner...

Training the dog is not the issue.
