Dogs on Buses.

[katex]

I sometimes take my friend's dog for a walk, and thought about catching the bus back sometimes.

Do they still allow dogs on buses, and what sort of charge ?

[Margaret Pilkington]

I don't know if Transdev charge for dogs....but Rossendale Buses don't.
We were on the way back from Bury a few weeks ago when a couple got on with a beautiful Dalmatian.......my husband is a bit nosy, so he asked how much they were charged for the dog......no charge.
You could always give the bus company a ring and ask them Kate.

If they'l let you on a bus, then they should be gratefull for seeing a dog.

yes they do still let dogs on buses and there is no charge for them anymore (on Transdev)

Thanks both of you. I was sure they still were, but didn't want to get a refusal and have to walk all the way back home.

I may be wrong, but at one time, were dogs only allowed upstairs on double deckers ?

Paddy (the dog) begs nicely.
By the way, do they have 1st Class, then I could avoid you ?

I got on a bus in Aberdeen and there was a sign saying DOGS MUST BE CARRIED. I said where am I going to find a dog at this time of night.

Ok I was only 11 at the time.Nothing changes.

When we used to catch the bus to Manchester for a session with the lads the bus used to full of dogs, on the last bus home it was always full of stunners

No, nothing changes ..including you ...

Wouldn't like to carry Paddy ...he is a 7 stone Labrador.... only 7stone 8lbs, wet through, myself at the moment !

With Transdev's outrageous prices it wouldn't surprise me if you had to pay to take dogs these days and twice as much for guide dogs
