Reporter Susanne Sternthal of the U.K.'s Financial Times reported on January 16, 2010,from her Moscow base, about seeing a German Shepard-type dog "waiting on a metro platform.

When the train pulled up, the dog would step in, scramble up to lie on a seat or sit on the floor if the carriage was crowded, and then exit a few stops later.
