[NAGDU] Emotional Support Dog attack on delta.

[David]

I, too, share your involvement with several other listservs.  I have 
searched and found no guide dog access issue reports involving Delta.  
Would you mind sending references to a couple? or sharing the report you 
filed on what happened to you on Delta?
