A-hole of the month: COPS NAB WOMAN FOR LEAVING HER POOCH AT AIRPORT!!! [View all]

Last edited Thu Feb 19, 2026, 05:02 PM - Edit history (1)

Dog owners are usually asked to pick up after their dog ... but authorities in Las Vegas just wanted a woman to pick up her actual dog and take it with her -- and they arrested her when she allegedly wouldn't.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department shared video of officers confronting an irresponsible dog owner at her flight departure gate ... telling her they're going to walk her back to where she left her dog tied up at the ticket counter.

The clip then cuts to security camera footage which shows this individual arriving with her dog and stopping to chat with the woman at the checked bag desk.

After a short conversation, this woman appears to tie her dog to an object and take off ... bidding bon voyage to her pooch.
