Dog abandoned at Las Vegas airport triggers animal-abandonment charge

A Las Vegas woman has been charged with animal abandonment after leaving her two-year-old dog tied to a baggage sizer at Harry Reid International Airport; airline staff denied boarding due to lack of service-dog documents, and the owner resisted officers, resulting in resisting-arrest charges; the dog was taken into Animal Protective Services and later placed in foster care when the owner did not reclaim it, with many adoption inquiries flooding in for the dog nicknamed Jet Blue.
