One concern is the escalators. I have seen signs on some escalators
indicating that dogs need to be carried.


It's not clear how they expect to supply enough dogs for everyone to be
able to comply with this sign.

There's a good business opportunity there for somebody.

Interesting pricing model, too - a Great Dane or Rotty would be very cheap
to rent, a small spaniel far more expensive.

Also, wouldn't supplying dogs for everybody cause a sharp increase in
littering? :-)
