NEW YORK CITY, NY (WHDH) — Subway employees in New York City had to delay commuters about an hour while they searched for a runaway dog, Dakota, who was stuck on the train tracks.

Dakota escaped from a nearby park and ended up on the tracks. She ran about a mile before transit employees were able to catch her and bring her to safety.

Dakota suffered a minor injury but was reunited with her owner.

Subway service resumed after Dakota was removed from the tracks.

Dakota is said to be doing well.
