Pet Relief Areas at Airports

i first noticed pet relief areas at PDX. i think it's cool that there's a play and relief area for our pets and emotional support BP's. ;)

anyway here's some recent pix i took.

here's the one at PDX (Portland, OR). it's a really nice one. it includes a sink where your pets may wash their pays after relieving itself.

The one with grass is nice. I remember those gravel/cement yards. My dog wouldn't pee in them, she just got really confused. (But she would pee on the airport carpet, that was okay in her mind.)
Having a sink is a good idea too, then people won't try to wash their dogs in the bathroom sink.

There is one at Myrtle Beach international (SC). Its the only one I have seen. It was just a room with fake grass and a red fire hydrant. I didnt know it was a common thing at other airports tho. It is pretty neat!

hmmm what are these guys doing behind those bushes?

Are pets flying that common? If so, why?

Not "common" but you can't have them de-plane & pee just anywhere. And most pets being flown somewhere may already have to "go" just by the time they get
to the airport, so again, this is very helpful. Similar to baby-changing stations in restrooms, & guess what guys...those are now being put in YOUR restrooms too.

Right, because real dads never have to take care of their little kids...:rolleyes: It's so much better for everyone when you just leave them wet, stinky & screaming.

I’m a real dad, I don’t need a table, I’ll change them anywhere. Never had an issue so far. Dining area at fast food joints get peaceful quick though.
