In general, however, the WMATA does not allow dogs on metro trains or buses, with the exception of service animals. This policy is in place for the safety and comfort of all passengers, and to prevent disruptive or dangerous behavior from uncontrolled animals.

However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For instance, if a passenger has a disability that requires the use of a service animal, the WMATA will make accommodations as necessary. Additionally, the WMATA may make special exceptions for certain events, such as dog-friendly days at the Metro, where leashed dogs are allowed on board.

However, as a general rule, the DC Metro does not allow pets on trains during peak hours (weekdays from 7-10 am and 4-7 pm). This policy is in place to ensure the safety and comfort of all passengers, as well as to minimize disruptions and potential damages that could be caused by animals on the train.
