Officials say the dog, who does not have a microchip, was following an unrelated commuter and rode to Hoboken Terminal. Animal control took the dog to the Liberty Humane Society in Jersey City, according to NJ Transit.

Anyone with information about the owner is asked to contact Central Communications Center at 1-800-242-0236 or 973-378-6565.
