Airport Security Spots Dog In X-Ray Machine, Internet Is Furious At The owner

The dog, a dachshund chihuahua mix, was unharmed when it came out of the machine.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in the United States has advised passengers travelling with pets to follow protocols after a small pet dog was accidentally sent through an X-Ray machine in a backpack at Wisconsin airport. 

TSA shared a photo of the incident on the micro-blogging site Twitter and wrote, "A dog was accidentally sent through the X-ray @MSN_Airport this week. When traveling with any animal, notify your airline & know their rules. At the checkpoint, remove your pet from the bag and send all items, including the empty carrier, to be screened in the machine."

They also shared a tweet demonstrating the proper way of boarding pets. They wrote, "Here’s the proper way to travel with your pet. Note: This is a @TSA PreCheck passenger traveling with a cat. If you think your pet will attempt an escape, ask to speak with a supervisor before removing the animal. Alternative screening options may be available."

The dog, a dachshund chihuahua mix, was unharmed when it came out of the machine. The passenger was unaware about the screening protocol required for animals.

The photo after being shared on Twitter has garnered several likes and comments.

One of the user on seeing the tweet wrote, "That is inhumane to carry a pet in a sealed backpack, which of course is not airline approved for carrying a pet.  Most likely they were trying to get past not having to pay the carry-on pet fee. Sick."

While another tweeted, "I just want to know if the dog is okay.  I find it disturbing that the condition of the dog was not mentioned. How do you not know your dog is in your backpack?!?! If you believe that garbage please put the drugs down."

"I don't get how they think they could get away with this without proper screening?" a third wrote.
