A few days ago, a video in which a man is observed at the airport in Istanbul, Turkey, in a complete attack of panic and anxiety upon learning that the airline has lost all four of his dogs. In the clip, the man is seen yelling that he wants to see his pets and demanding an answer from the airport staff. His desperation is so intense that he even throws himself to the ground crying on his back.
The man identified as Joao Paulo de Costa is a dog trainer specializing in the papillon breed, the same breed as the four dogs that were lost on the trip to Turkey. When they tell him that his pets are not there, Joao goes into hysterics and suffers greatly. His overwhelm was such that his reaction went viral and worried millions of people, who wished he could find his furry friends.
So where were they?
Losing a pet must be terrifying, especially for someone like Joao, who constantly shares his day-to-day life as a trainer and his love for his dogs on social media. The video of his situation with the airline went around the world, so everyone demanded a response and follow-up on what happened. Fortunately, this January 26 it was announced that Joao Paulo was finally able to meet with his four safe and sound loins.
Apparently, everything was due to the fact that when traveling from the Philippines to Turkey, with a stopover in Switzerland, the dogs were not boarded for transshipment to Turkey, so while Joao was already in Istanbul, the dogs were still in Switzerland. However, at that time no one knew where they were, so that was what triggered the man’s fit of despair, and with good reason.
a hairy end happy
After such a bitter experience, Joao Paulo was able to recover his “dogs” and now they are all safe and happy to be together again. Given the support received, Joao uploaded some stories to his Instagram account to thank all the messages and the love of the people. In addition, he took the opportunity to introduce us to the four traveling puppies.
The coach also uploaded a video to his TikTok account where he explains that he was very afraid to imagine losing them forever, that he did not know what to do in that sad and distressing situation, but in the end he is very happy to have them back. This clip caused a furor and was filled with comments of happiness from the people who lived through despair with him through the first viral video.

Finally, this situation opened the debate on whether pets should stop traveling in another part of the plane or if they should be given the opportunity to occupy a place next to or at least closer to their master, to prevent something serious from happening to them. pass or get lost, as on this occasion. Some people are even proposing to gather signatures to change the way airlines transport animals.
We frequently know cases of people who lose their suitcases and users also fall into despair, now losing a living being, a pet that more than that is part of your family must be devastating. In conclusion, airlines should have better logistics so that this stops happening.
