TIPP CITY, OHIO - A German shepherd that survived a flight from Atlanta to Dayton after five other dogs died was released from a veterinary hospital Wednesday. <br> <br> Sven Anstadt, a veterinarian at the Anstadt Animal Hospital, said the dog was treated for dehydration. <br> <br> The dogs, which were imported from Frankfurt, Germany, died during or shortly after a flight from Atlanta that arrived at Dayton International Airport on Saturday, Anstadt said. He said the dogs had been in separate carriers in the cargo hold of the Delta Air Lines flight. <br> <br> Anstadt said the dogs had been trained to detect drugs and explosives. <br> <br> ``We regret this unfortunate incident,&#39;&#39; said Delta spokeswoman Kristi Tucker. ``We are currently conducting a thorough investigation. As this is a customer matter, we can&#39;t go into any further detail.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Pathologists at Ohio State University&#39;s College of Veterinary Medicine have examined the five dead German shepherds and expect results back in about five weeks. <br> <br> Tipp City is about 15 miles north of Dayton.
