Public transport is open for anyone to get from one place to another. You get to get on a shared mode of transportation and get off at any preferred stop. And when you use public transport and be in public places, you get to see stray animals. Some of them hang around since they can get a bite of food that people dispose or share with those animals.
But this story is a totally different one from all the stray animal behavior that is seen or heard. Meet Boji, you will not see him as the other stray dogs because he does not hang around public areas, he uses public transport to get to places! Yes, it is true, this awesome stray who lives in Istanbul is spotted using buses and the metro all the time. Scroll down to read more about this doggo!

People bring along their support dogs or their pets with them as they travel, but Boji does not need a master or a guide, he exactly knows where to get on and get off. This awesome doggo shows up at bus stops and metro stations to wait for his transport as any human would do. If not for snow or rain, he would always like to sit out in the sun while waiting for his transport.

The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality has been notified about this peculiar stranger who is not a stranger to the city anymore. So, they took a rather friendly initiative to place a tracker on Boji to track his routine. Since he does not harm anyone on public transport, no one minds him being on board. As a matter of fact, the doggo has a good set of qualities. He waits until everyone has got on and off the transports before he does, he doesn’t show any hurry or aggression towards anything at all.
