She walked along the Dodder as far as Donnybrook and then to Sandymount DART Station, where she boarded a north-bound train - a first for her. Detrained at Tara Street and a short walk over to St Stephen's Green LUAS stop.
Just as LUAS was about to pull out Tess spots an incoming tram. She has a real problem with trams, trains and buses and at their sight gets agitated and barks to the high heavens. And even with her muzzle on she manages to bark. But it's easy to calm her. She is never a threat to anyone.
The driver hears the barking, gets out of his cab and tells the owner to take the dog off the tram. There's something of a set-to but off comes Tess.
Stranded? No. She walks to next LUAS stop at Harcourt and off she goes.
Berlin, probably with the best urban transport system in the world, allows dogs and cycles on all its trains and trams.
Magnificent Dublin and those managers who run the LUAS.
