( CNN ) Flying with your cute little bundle of doggie love ? Each airline has its own rules about how to bring a small dog in the cabin or a larger dog in its crate with the checked luggage . Not in the checked luggage , as an independent Chihuahua discovered on Tuesday . The dog was discovered in its owner 's checked luggage by Transportation Security Administration officers at LaGuardia Airport in Queens , New York . Luckily for the dog , the TSA screens all checked luggage . The officers in search of more dangerous items found the dog and called the owner , who had not intended to bring her darling dog on her Tuesday trip . The woman 's husband took the misbehaving pooch home . The TSA 's security procedures do not prohibit you from bringing a pet on your flight , but a more breathable crate is suggested . On the other hand , traveling with torch lighters that look like grenades ? Those are always prohibited . Crazy things Americans tried to take on planes in 2013 .
