Airplane cabins are not usually relaxing places, with tight seats and noise. But Merlot, a dog with a special passport, travels comfortably. This Golden Retriever enjoys flying by taking naps, making the journey look easy.
Not everyone likes having dogs in the cabin, but Merlot shows that he is a quiet and calm traveller. In a recent video, he is seen resting peacefully. He is used to flying and seems unfazed by the background noise.
The video shows him asleep in the footwell next to his owner’s leg. He occasionally opens his eyes to check on his owner before going back to sleep. This isn’t his first flight. He has even travelled in business class before.
Merlot’s owner says he is “quiet, trained, asleep,” demonstrating how well-behaved Golden Retrievers can be on planes. They love being near people, even at altitudes of 30,000 feet. The video has over 2,600 likes, with many people enjoying his calm presence. Some viewers would love to sit next to such a friendly dog.
The owner jokes about how people worry about a quiet, sleeping pup on a plane. A viewer called him a “perfect angel,” appreciating his peaceful nature, unaffected by the altitude or small space.
