AN MD80 CABIN CREW WERE CONFRONTED BY A PAX WITH AN UNRULY DOG SHE COULD NOT CTL.

Narrative

PAX AND HER SON; BOARDED IN ORD WITH THEIR DOG. BASICALLY; SHE COULD NOT CTL THE ANIMAL; BOTH DURING BOARDING AND IN INITIAL CRUISE. WE; AS THE FLT ATTENDANTS WORKING THE TRIP; TOLD HER REPEATEDLY TO PUT THE ANIMAL BACK IN THE CONTAINER. SHE MENTIONED THAT SHE COULD NOT CTL THE ANIMAL AND WE SHOULD DO IT FOR HER. AFTER WE CONSULTED WITH THE CAPT; WE PRESENTED PAX WITH THE 'INFLT DISTURBANCE RPT' THAT IS PROVIDED ONBOARD. SHE CRUMPLED IT UP PROMPTLY AND STUFFED IT IN THE SEAT BACK POCKET. AFTER DIVERTING TO BOI; THEY STARTED TO BECOME UNRULY AGAIN (THEY SEEMED TO HAVE 'SETTLED DOWN' AFTER THE RPT INCIDENT). AFTER AGAIN CONSULTING WITH CAPT; IT WAS DECIDED THAT WE WOULD NOT DEPART BOI UNTIL PAX HAD BEEN REMOVED. A MIL TROUPER; A LCL ARPT POLICE OFFICER; AND THE CAPT ACCOMPLISHED THIS TASK. IT CERTAINLY DID NOT HELP MATTERS WHEN WE DIVERTED TO BOI. IF WE HAD NOT; I'M SURE THAT THE 2 PAX IN QUESTION WOULD HAVE MADE IT TO PDX WITHOUT ANY FURTHER INCIDENT. I'M ALSO INCLINED TO BELIEVE THAT IF PAX HAD GIVEN HER DOG SOME SORT OF SEDATIVE/TRANQUILIZER; SHE WOULD NOT HAVE HAD THE PROB OF CTLING HER DOG.
