Barbra Streisand Bitch Attacks Flight Attendant 
 
 Barbra Streisand -- Bitch Attacks Flight Attendant 
 
 EXCLUSIVE 
 
 Barbra Streisand's female dog just got herself into serious trouble at 36,000 feet -- attacking a flight attendant aboard a billionaire's fancy private jet ... and it was so bad, the victim needed stitches. 
 
 The perp is a bitch named Sammie -- Barbra's 12-year-old Coton de Tulear ... who accompanied Streisand on Tuesday during a flight from NYC to DC on a PJ owned by billionaire investor Ron Perelman. 
 
 Our sources tell us ... a female flight attendant noticed the dog and went over to pet her, but Sammie snapped, biting the woman's hand ... puncturing the skin and opening a wound that required stitches. 
 
 We're told Barbra IMMEDIATELY apologized to both Ron and the flight attendant -- but everyone forgave her and the injured woman is expected to make a full recovery. 
 
 #StillNotAsPainfulAsTheGuiltTrip ||||| Barbra Streisand is in the doghouse. 
 
 The legendary singer’s little pooch, Samantha, nipped a flight attendant Tuesday. 
 
 Streisand, 73, was heading from New York City to Washington, DC, to lobby for funding for the Women’s Heart Alliance when the snafu occurred. 
 
 The unidentified flight attendant, who was working on Ron Perelman’s private jet, saw the 12-year-old Coton de Tulear and decided to pet it without showing her hand first — a non-invasive way to get acquainted with new animals. 
 
 Samantha’s bite was so severe, the stewardess required stitches. 
 
 As any dog owner would be, Streisand was horrified by the incident. 
 
 Fans of Streisand know how deeply she cares for her four-legged companion. In fact, she often posts photos of Samantha on her Instagram. 
 
 Streisand’s rep tells Page Six, “This never happened before and Barbra apologized profusely to the flight attendant.” 
 
 Hello Instagram… isn’t my Samantha just precious? A post shared by Barbra Streisand (@barbrastreisand) on Aug 6, 2014 at 12:20pm PDT
