Dogs on the London Underground

I've seen loads of dogs on the London Underground. Some seem to be enjoying the experience much more than others! I've chatted with dog owners of all different types and come up with some basic tips for taking your dog on the tube.

1) Try to travel when it's not crowded

2) If you dog is little, pick him/her up. At best they'll be scared, at worse they'll get stepped on!

3) DO NOT let your dog on the tube if they are not house trained UNLESS you intend to carry them the entire time. Accidents are a great way to get dogs banned on the underground.

4) Check when the underground stops operating if you are traveling at night, it usually shuts at 12 and opens again at 5 but this can vary.

5) Use the luggage gate... I went through the normal gates and Zorra got whacked in the bum. She was  not impressed.

Taking your dog on the underground is a great and cheap way to travel around London, but as always you MUST make sure your dog is socialized and friendly before taking them in public.
