Tube & Train Tips for Dogs

Navigating London transport with dogs is straightforward once you know the rules: **The Basics:** Dogs travel FREE on all TfL services (Tube, bus, Overground, DLR, trams). No ticket needed. Must be on lead at all times. **Escalators:** Carry small dogs or use the lift. Large dogs should be trained to ride escalators, or use stairs/lifts. **Busy Times:** Avoid peak hours (7:30-9:30am, 5-7pm) if possible. Some stations get dangerously crowded. Weekend mornings are best. **Accessibility:** Most stations now have step-free access - great for dogs nervous of escalators. Check TfL website for specific station info. **Thames Clippers:** Dogs welcome on river buses! Great alternative to the Tube for central London journeys.
