Genius Dog Uses Trampoline To Escape Fence And Follow Owner To Work

by Gillian Fuller

Thomas McCormack was enjoying his daily commute to work when someone -- or rather, something -- hopped onto the train seat next to him.

When McCormack looked over, he was shocked to see his dog, Paddy, sitting on the seat next to him.

The dog apparently hopped the fence, using a trampoline, and followed its owner all the way to the train.

McCormack, from Scotland, told the Kirkintilloch Herald,

I jumped on the train and the next thing I know, Paddy comes in and sits on the seat next to me. I was shocked. He just looked at me as if he was saying 'Where are you going?'

McCormack believes Paddy, whom he calls a “clever dog,” probably jumped the fence before but was never been able to make it to the train.

He added,

That morning he obviously caught me. I had to take him to work.
