Dalmatian Wins Hearts
Long-haul travel with a furry companion can be a challenge, especially for large dogs. Many airlines enforce strict pet travel rules, often requiring them to be crated in cargo or confined to small carriers. But one lucky Dalmatian, Spotty, defied the norm—flying in luxury and style on a Singapore Airlines business class seat from Singapore to Tokyo.

The four-year-old Swiss Dalmatian has taken the internet by storm after a video of her impeccable in-flight behavior went viral. In the clip, shared by her owner, Spotty is first seen relaxing in an airport lounge before seamlessly transitioning into her plush business class seat. Throughout the 5.5-hour journey, the well-trained pup was the picture of calm—wagging her tail, napping peacefully, and even watching a movie.

Curious minds couldn’t help but wonder about one key detail—bathroom breaks. Responding to inquiries, Spotty’s owner explained, “It was a 5.5-hour flight at 8 AM. No breakfast, no water until an hour before landing. She’s well-trained and ate normally once we landed. We had pee pads as a backup, but she was perfectly fine!”

Some users also questioned how Spotty managed to bypass the usual cargo travel restrictions. Her owner clarified, “Spotty is a registered service dog. Singapore Airlines allows only fully vaccinated, government-certified service dogs in the cabin.”
