Crippled Monkey | 00:00 UK time, Tuesday, 15 February 2005

If you're someone who uses a guide horse, a , or even an assistance pig, you'll want to read from The Scotsman newspaper. The US is demanding that the UK falls into line with their aviation laws, which allow any kind of animal to be taken on an aeroplane flight if a blind or disabled passenger says the animal is there to help them.
