Florence

Florence is extremely dog-friendly, especially after a law was passed in 2008 allowing dogs to enter many public places (restaurants/art galleries etc). If Lorenzo the Magnificent took a liking to his furry-friends, you can only imagine that the tradition stuck around. Be aware that here people might always ask ‘maschio o femmina’ (male or female) since many believe that the sex of the dog determines whether or not they will get along.

  • Although it is not forbidden, it is highly recommended to avoid peeing at doors and shops entrances. For the rest.....PEE FREELY!
  • Poop should always be collected by your 2 legs mate.
  • It is, unfortunately, mandatory to carry (without wearing it) a muzzle. Contrary to what one might think, the most "comfortable" muzzles are the Baskerville models.
