April 13 (UPI) -- Airport workers in Canada this week fatally shot a rescue dog that escaped from a plane and ran onto the tarmac.
On Monday afternoon, Greta, a 2-year-old labrador mix, was being flown to a foster home in Winnipeg under the care of the Manitoba Mutts, a dog rescue organization. When the plane landed and airport workers opened the carriage door, Greta jumped out after apparently chewing through a plastic portion of her kennel.
