Making dog owners sound crazy for needed to take their animals on the tram or subway is mean. Sometimes animals need to see a vet, be boarded, or play in Central Park. This is the same for people with children in strollers or people who enjoy bike riding. Just because we live on an island, doesn't mean we should be confined to it. Try to think with an open mind before being so quick to make negative comments. I just sent an email to the directors@rioc.com to ask why the Tram has such a different policy than the NYC MTA. The Tram Operators require a fully enclosed container where the MTA states just a container where the animal can be contained on your lap and not bother other riders - nothing about fully contained. I hope to have an answer soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575679856496869514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259113181688214686.post-62293818042397710512008-05-26T12:15:00.000-04:002008-05-26T12:15:00.000-04:00I wish we could go back to the dog-free days here ...I wish we could go back to the dog-free days here on RI.
