Answer
I can guarentee you that if your dog is out of control you won't even make it onto the plane. Even if you do make it on, if the dog becomes disruptive during the flight, the pilot can and most likely will divert the flight and remove you from the flight.
I **STRONLY** suggest that you leave your dog at home either with a trusted friend or family member or at a boarding facility (speak with your vet they should know of some).
If you can't or won't leave your dog, then your only other option is to speak to your vet about tranqulizers for your dog to take during the flight. I suggest this as a last option. You should always try this out at home first as you never know how your dog will react to them and you don't wan to have a bad reaction at 35000 feet.
Here's some other stuff you need to consider when you fly with your dog:
Every airline is different. Some allow cabin pets and others don't (Southwest doesn't allow any animals except service animals).
You will need to call the airline you are flying on to see what their policy is. Generally speaking, cabin pets must be 20 pounds or less, must fit into an airline approved carrier that must be able to fit under the seat in front of you. You will not be able to sit in an exit row. You will need a health certificate from your airline issued no more than 14 days prior to travel. Most airlines have a limit of how many cabin pets are allowed per flight and often charge a fee for them ($50-100 each way). You will also need to allow extra time to go through security screening as they will have to hand inspect the carrier.
If your pet is bigger than 20 pounds it will have to fly in the cargo hold. This means that during ceritan times of the year you may not be able to fly with your dog due to extreme weather conditions on the ground (the dog would be outside for a while while it waits to be loaded and unloaded.
Generally speaking, for pets to travel as cargo they must be placed in a hard sided airline approved carrier. You will need to have some type of absorbant material in the carrier in case the dog needs to relieve themselves. Again, you will need to provide a health certificate and possibly other documents. On most planes the dog will be placed in a special cargo hold where the air is heated and pressurized.
Regardless of how you pet is flying you will need to restrict all food and water intake for at least 12 hours prior to flight. Make sure your dog potties before entering the airport. Once you enter your dog will need to remain in it's carrier until you leave the airport at your destination This is true for all pets, including cabin pets! If your pet is flying as a cabin pet you will not be allowed to take it out of it's carrier during flight to feed it. You should give the dog an ice cube every now and then so they can get a little water, but remember, water/food in, water/food out!
Edited to add: Do not get a citronella collar. Your fellow passengers do not want to be smelling that stuff for 5 hours and there are better ways to get your dog to stop barking than to spray them in the face.
The barking and going crazy are behavioral and leadership issues that need to be addressed by a certified animal behaviorist. If these issues don't get addressed then your dog will continue to be wild when you take him out.

los angeles?

where are fun and exciting places to visit in L.A.?
for example : wax museum, walk of fame, universal studios etc
Answer
There are literally hundreds of things to do here in LA. Here is my top ten list:
Disneyland: The Happiest Place on Earth. Half a billion visitors canât be wrong. (Sometimes it seems all at once)
Universal Studios: A theme park that grew out of a studio tour. And Universal City Walk is a fun place to hang out in the evening after your day inside the park.
Hollywood: Hollywood Boulevard is ready for its close-up, thanks to years of urban renewal and renovation. Enjoy the Walk of Fame, Entertainment Museum, Chinese Theatre and more. You can see a lot for free. The Hollywood & Highland complex has lots of shops and restaurants, and the Kodak Theater (home of the Academy Awards). I also like the El Capitan theater, because it has been restored to its former glory.
Rodeo Drive, 90210: Packed with exclusive shops, full of gawkers. They all came to enjoy the excess. Free, unless you intend to buy something.
Venice Beach: Los Angeles kitsch and over-the-top culture at its best. Here you'll find Muscle Beach, street performers and tacky shops galore. Fun, VERY interesting, but I avoid it after dark, when it gets a little TOO interesting for my taste. And it's a short bike ride from Santa Monica Pier.
Santa Monica Beach and Pier: Great beach scene and a classic seaside amusement park, complete with antique carousel that has been in a lot of TV and movies. (The Sting and "Three's Company" come immediately to mind). After visiting the pier, you can ride a bike south a couple miles to Venice Beach.
Santa Monica Third Street Promenade - Downtown Santa Monica's shopping promenade is often the scene of movie star-sightings. Just a short walk from the Santa Monica Pier.
Sunset Boulevard: Perhaps one of the world's most famous streets, it began as a route between the stars' posh neighborhoods and the Hollywood studios. It runs from downtown to the ocean, passing through the "Sunset Strip" on its way. It makes for a fun drive. Along the way, you see a lot of different neighborhoods: Hollywood, West Hollywood, Bel Air, and Pacific Palisades. When you get to the ocean, stop at Gladstone's for Fish.
Queen Mary: Once the largest ship afloat, she's been docked in Long Beach for longer than she sailed, and her elegance never fails to impress. Free to visit. You can actually stay on board, for a price.
Farmers Market and The Grove - A new shopping complex right next to a Los Angeles landmark, The Grove and Farmers Market coexist. Enjoy a movie or shopping, and then take the trolley to the Farmers Market for lunch or dinner. It is right next to CBS, so walk across the lot to see if they are taping "The Price is Right". You might even get in.
Griffith Park - Home of the Los Angeles Zoo, Griffith Park Observatory, Travel Town, the Greek Theatre, and Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage.
Getty Museum - The Getty's architecture is so beautiful that it keeps me fascinated. No matter whether you like their art or architecture better (or maybe you'll just enjoy the view), the Getty is sure to please. Free.
