To be shocked at seeing a dog in a pram on the bus.

[Gwlondon]

I was on the bus today with my ten month old DS. Another lady got on with a pram with a dog in it. I was a bit shocked and sniggered a bit to myself. I even looked again just to check it was a dog- it was a small dog. No idea what breed. BUT THEN we got to a stop and you could tell that the bus driver was telling a lady in a wheel chair that she couldn't get on because there was no space.

As the bus pulled away I rang the bell to say that I would get off with my pram. Bit of a cuffle to get off. The wheelchair user then caught up with bus and eventually got on to share the wheelchair/pram area with a dog in a pram!

AIBU to think that the world has gone mad! I was half sniggering and as I walked the rest of the way home. I still can't believe it.

I live in Hong Kong. It's a very, very common sight here. In handbags, in prams, in those shopping trolley things. No-one looks twice. They also put shoes on them which is ludicrous.

I shit you not, we went to the beach yesterday and I saw one is a doggy tutu swimsuit thingy. A poodle.

I've seen it before (dog in pram), but not on the bus.
hope you reported the bus driver for not asking pram users to make space for wheelchair.

Jeer if you must,but I am a Pensioner with an elderly small dog, that can't walk far,but still likes to get out of the house with me.I don't have a car and a doggy pushchair is a blessing for us both,especially if you live alone as I do.
