Q11: Are Dogs Allowed on the Go Train?

Yes, dogs are allowed on the GO Train, but there are some rules and guidelines to follow:

1. Size and Leash Requirements

  • Small Dogs Dogs under 15 pounds (7 kg) are allowed to travel on the GO Train for free as long as they are in a carrier or pet carrier.
  • Larger Dogs Dogs over 15 pounds must be kept on a leash and are subject to a $2 fee. They must be under the control of their owner at all times.

2. Travel Guidelines

  • Must Stay on Leash If your dog is not in a carrier, they must remain on a leash while onboard the train.
  • Be Mindful of Other Passengers To ensure a safe and comfortable ride for everyone, dogs must be well-behaved and not disrupt other passengers.

3. Special Considerations

  • Service Animals Service dogs are always welcome, regardless of size, and are not subject to the same restrictions or fees.
  • Designated Spaces Depending on the train, there may be designated areas where dogs can sit with their owners, but it’s best to confirm with GO Transit staff if you’re unsure.

Conclusion

If you’re planning to travel with your dog, always check the latest policies from GO Transit for any updates or changes, as rules may vary slightly by season or special circumstances.
