A public consultation has been launched on whether or not dogs should be allowed onto South Yorkshire's Supertram network.

At the moment our canine friends are only allowed aboard if working as service dogs, or if they're being carried inside a cage.

Now, South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority has launched a four week consultation on whether the rules should be relaxed to allow dogs to finally ride the Supertram without restrictions.

Once the results are in the Combined Authority will make a decision on whether to go ahead with a pilot scheme.

It closes at midday on March 3. You can have your say here.
