The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has an Instagram profile. On it, you can browse through all sorts of the bizarre items they seize on a daily basis. Meat cleaver? Check. A knife disguised as a lipstick container? Check. 92 pounds of marijuana? Check.
…A living, breathing dog? You guessed it: Check!
Sometimes, people find things at the airport that are both unexpected, and unexpectedly heartwarming. Other times, however, the findings are downright crazy. This is one of those times!!
One TSA agent at New York's LaGuardia Airport was recently stunned to find a small, white, seven-year-old Chihuahua stowed inside a flyer's hard-sided suitcase.
Apparently, the dog crawled into the bag when she realized her mom was packing for a trip to Los Angeles. I mean, it's kind of heartwarming to know the pup didn't want Mom to leave her, but it's also terrifying, as a dog owner, to imagine.
The sneaky Chi-Chi triggered an alarm at the airport and the owner had no idea she was hiding in her luggage.
The owner’s husband brought the dog home safely.
Remember, folks: When you head to the airport and hand over your luggage to the TSA, always make sure to know every single item you've packed. Or else, something as insane as this could happen to you…

A TSA agent at LaGuardia airport went to unzip this checked bag after it set off the alarm. No one could have imagined what was hiding away inside...
The passenger's seven-year-old Chihuahua had snuck into her bag as she packed! Luckily, the dog was okay and her dad came to pick her up and take her home. Looks like someone wanted to go on vacation, too.
The TSA posted a picture of the dog on their Instagram page, with a caption reading: "It’s always important to double check your bags before traveling, especially to make sure your Chihuahua hasn’t stowed away inside one of them."
