Some fly in the cabin, but a lot of bigger animals have to be checked in. Now the rules for checking your dog in is changes. Kris van cleave has the story from Reagan National airport. Reporter you have a big dog like buddy here and you want to fly with him, you used to be able to go to the ticket counter. But increasingly the airline also send you here. This is the cargo terminal, and it is nowhere near that second counter. Come on in. Reporter for peter harold and his wife jan, shanty is part of the family. Which means when they fly their Golden Doodle does, too. Cabin, so she has to be checked. It is not the easiest thing. It takes a long time, you have to go to your vet within a week of the flight and get a Health Certificate each time that you do it. So yeah, it adds about an extra hour to your arrival time. Reporter starting in march, delta will no longer allow larger pets to be checked on. Instead theyll have to be handled as fright. The pets will have to be dropped off and picked up in the cargo section and the pooch may fly on a separate time. We continue do it the cargo way. We just dont have the confidence and it would be too traumatic for us to think of the dog being handled as cargo. Reporter deltas change we really have a better equipped facility at cargo and we can properly keep the animals in a safe environment and have professional staff to look after them when they have a connection or a layover rather than just leaving them out on the tarmac. Reporter programs like pet safe mark a course correction for airlines. Airlines have done a terrible job for over 40 years in transports plants in the cargo hold of passenger planes and the sa statistics prove that. Reporter through november, 33 pets died, 23 injured and 3 more were lost while in an airlines possession in 2015. The real issue is connecting flights, whether its a passenger cargo plane hold or a cargo plane hold, it gets down to the chain of custody, who is watching that animal, who is caring for that animal. Reporter southwest and jetblue wont let you check a pet. American still does but only on certain types of aircraft but not when its too hot or cold. I think shes a bit excited. Reporter on the return to washington, weather delays baggage, leaving peter pacing. But from the looks of it, the wait was well worth it. Oh. Reporter delta says the change will ensure that we have a high quality Consistent Service for pets when owners choose to ship them. Service animals of all sizes are allowed in the cabin, and travel experts say they think that system will be abused by people who want to take advantage of that instead of checking their pets.

If we had a second baby, he would have been fired or forced to quit. The fine could have been nearly 50,000. The cbs news videotaped these beijing bill boards in the 1980s. One child policy was designed to combat the booming population, and to lessen the financial burden on families and the state. Health officials claim at least 400 million births were avoided, but enforcement could be draconian, sometimes including forced abortion and sterilization. Some parents preferred male children and aborted female fetuses. Today there are 33 million more men than women in china. Chinas workforce is shrinking, and chow worries about the stress on her daughter. When we get old, shell be the only one taking care of us, she said. Theyre ready to start trying to have another child and their 10yearold has already given thought to the brother versus sister question. Why a little sister . Because little brother is very naughty. [ laughter ] reporter so you would rath very a little sister . Yes.
