The AKC believes this policy will unfairly punish many >responsible dog owners and has written to the airline to voice its concerns. >The AKC strongly opposes any policy that determines a dog to be >"dangerous" based on specific breeds or phenotypic classes of dogs. >Regulations should not be based on breed identity. A dog's behavior, and >not its breed, should determine whether it is accepted for air shipment. >The AKC is urging American Airlines to reconsider its breed-specific >policy, and we encourage dog owners to contact the airline to request the >same.
