can I just put a finger in the air on behalf of dogs? (not the bird, an index finger),

dog physiology is quite different from humans.
they have incredibly more sensitive senses of smell and hearing.
putting a dog in a light aircraft is an inhumanly bad thing to do.
the noise levels in small aircraft are too high for a dog to endure comfortably.
it would be like you sitting beside the speakers of an outdoor rock band for hours on end.

dont torture your dog.

I have mentioned this directly to pilots concerned.
most thankfully only do it when they know the dog is already deaf.

woof woof. end of diatribe.
