Living in Rome: A Canine Perspective

The number of cuddles I’ve received in the local Piazza di Spagna definitely proves the theory that Rome is a pet friendly city. Word on the street is also that Rome increases ones appetite and I can definitely confirm this. I’ll be honest, who can decline spaghetti leftovers? Not me! Thanks goodness for the big parks for me to work off the extra calories – Villa Borghese, Villa Pamphili, Parco della Caffarella – you name it, I’ll run it. A good jog up and down the Spanish steps doesn’t go astray either. Thankfully with all that exercise I’m allowed to travel on the regional  metro, but only on lines A and B, on the first and last carriages and if my family buy me a ticket. Back on the dining front, most of my local coffee bars welcome me while my parents enjoy a cappuccino and one even brings furry visitors a bowl of milk to slurp on. Rome, you are bellissimo!

Did you know?

During 5th–1st century B.C. the Colosseum was used to parade exotic animals to the public in held in honor of the dead. The internal design of the venue was created with an elaborate elevator-style system used to bring animal cages to the upper ground level from underground tunnels.

About Rome

The impressive artistic heritage of Rome is unrivalled with 3,000 years of influential art, architecture and culture on display. The church-dominated city is home to Vatican City, headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church and an abundance of local cuisine and wine. The family-focused city loves animals and is a popular international pet transport destination.
