Is that the price you would put on your own dog? And now a $1,000 donation, what a lovely gesture and a slap in the face to every single person with a pet.

Sorry Greg, your reply to the Nala incident is a tad too corporate BS for me. The dog was found DEAD minutes from your airport; that poor dog regardless of whether Nala was a houdini master dog magician and can actually escape locked crates–that is a lame excuse and 100 percent inexcusable for your ground employees to not have some kind of ability to see a dog running across th tarmac? A large German Shepard escapes and no one see’s this poor baby running? Well some careless driver did and killed the dog another example of discusting disrespect –erratic driving. How well lit is the road by the airport? Reagardless–now after the fact, you offer to pay the airfare of the owner & donate 1,000.00 to a shelter? Big deal. What ar you going to do to make sure this doesn’t happen again? Are your ground crew members trained or screened to even give a hoot about animals? I’m sick to my stomach over this and it just adds to all the other garbag of rude impatient employees which seem to be the MO of all ground and flight crew on Delta. I hope you don’t have a dog and imagine–Greg, havingto explain to your kids thatthe dog was hit by a car because daddy’s team didn’t pay enough attention to a large german shepard running around airport property. It’s such a pathetic situation. You guys are up there..The Michael Vic of the Not-so-Friendly Skies. Save the reward money for better crates and better handlers of thse precious vulnrable gifts from God that need us to survive. And don’t even get me started on the on-board under the seat crap for small pets. You want to get ahead of your competition? Try doing some startgic PR and marketing about how Delta is th eonly airline you want to fly with when your travelling with your family members inclkuding FIDO! Appeeal to people’s hearts vs. teir wallets and make a figgn ffort to show peopl you guys care about animals. Watch your sales soar! Make a damn effort to get thjose pets –every single one safely to their destination. I can’t even imagine what the animal cargo looks like. Hey there’s another brilliant marketing idea–be the first major airline that allows you to watch your pet during the flight on channel xyz. Just do something!! Cause-related marketing to nsur Nala didn’t die in vain.

If this were about reminding employees what they need to do to keep this from happening it would be specific. This is for us to read and put it into record for the future potential juror. We want to know what is being done BY DELTA to make things better. PR is not going to fix anything.
It is clear Delta still does not get it. Astounding.
