Just Nuisance - Simon's Town, South Africa - Dog Statues on Waymarking.com

"Just Nuisance would regularly follow the naval liberty men when they went for a "run-ashore" in Cape Town. He soon became well known on the trains and would jump on and off at different stations. Apparently, the sailors would try to hide him from the Ticket collector, but as he was such a big dog this was not always possible and he would be put off at the next station, but being a very clever dog, he would walk back to the previous station or just wait at the station in question and board the next train to continue his journey. A few times, when approached by an angry conductor, he showed how serious he was about rail travel by standing on his hind legs, putting his huge paws on the conductor's shoulders and growling in the poor man's face.
On August 25, 1939, Just Nuisance was enlisted into the South African Royal Navy. He was given the Christian name of "Just", the Trade of "Bone Crusher" and his Religious Denomination given as "Scrounger" (this was later upgraded to Canine Divinity League)."
