Totally naive/ignorant here. Honest question. I realize that the dog is leaving a huge mess and a bad stink and the ICK kit would need to be used...
As far as what the dog owner is supposed do: A) Leave the dog at home, B) Drive, C) Have the dog in a crate and checked with the bags, D) Not have a dog. Any of those options is acceptable. No matter what, letting your big dog **** in the galley is not an acceptable option.
Not sure what the crew was thinking or why they decided to return. A friend was on this flight and never got an answer as to why they returned, other than it was due to the dog.
