I'm no lawyer, but I'd sue them to get the owners name, then sue the owner.

Sherpa I found, I thought maybe you doggy people had a special supplier for another bag.
Do they make one big enough for a pitty, as the alleged biter was identified?

You're not serious with that link, are you? Next time maybe try linking to a group that is slightly less biased, or at least knows how to hide their biases better.

The owner wasn't a passanger. How is the airline supposed to give her a name of a person they know nothing about?

As to the bag (soft case version of a animal crate), it has existed for decades longer than ESA's have been on airplane cabins w/o it.
You can tell from the size of the bruise in the photo that it was a bigger dog. I doubt it was a pit bull, that's just the breed to name when you want media attention. And of course it worked.

I don't doubt that the bag has been around for awhile, its just not something that every dog owner would own or even know about. I've never heard of a sherpa bag until now, and I have years of experience working with dogs. Its just not something I've ever needed, nor have I known anyone else who has needed one. I had a soft sided crate for my dog when I took her on an airplane years ago, but it wasn't a sherpa bag. It was just a typical travel carrier.

Do YOUR research. That website has an extreme bias.
