Airline Mistakenly Ships Couple's German Shepherds To Germany
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- It may be ironic, but a couple that just moved to South Florida wasn't amused when an airline mistakenly shipped their two German shepherds to Germany instead of Fort Lauderdale Sunday.
"We got our luggage -- no dogs," said owner Ramiro Diaz. "That's the most pathetic mistake that can happen. It's OK when you lose luggage, but life, like a pet, that's beyond comprehension."
The couple said when they examined the claim checks for their dogs, they noticed the wrong destination -- Frankfurt, Germany -- had been entered. Frankfurt is about 5,000 miles from Fort Lauderdale.
"For this to happen to this family is just unheard of," said Cherie Wachter of the Broward County Humane Society. "How they ended up in Germany when they were supposed to be in South Florida is just unimaginable."
The dog's owner, Ramiro Diaz, calls the mixup "pathetic."
The couple flew from San Francisco to Washington D.C. Sunday. They caught a connecting flight to Fort Lauderdale, but the dogs were accidentally put on another plane.
A United Airlines spokesperson said the airline is sorry for the inconvenience and the dogs will be flown back from Germany. They were due to arrive at Miami International Airport on Tuesday.

I had a german shephard named Bandit when I was a kid. She was really stupid because she drank antifreeze once.
ugh is this some obscure movie quote that only 3 people know about?

I don't know. That really is a true story. My dad left it out in the garage and she drank it.
Did she die?
