"Dogs! I have two and they are real true friends"

Cristiano Ronaldo

PORTUGAL

Portugal is the oldest country in Europe…

Portugal, with its dramatic Atlantic coastline stretching more than 500 miles, reliable weather and fine seaside resorts make it one of Europe’s best destinations for a beach break…and you can take your dog! Despite the iconic history and culture, gastronomy and wines, the beaches, surfing, music festivals, the Portuguese people are affable, open and sincere. The Portuguese people really do welcome foreigners with open arms. Definitely a pet-friendly country, the Portuguese seem to have a strong affinity with our furry friends with more than half of the country’s households owning a pet. Dogs are permitted to accompany their owners into commercial establishments, which includes shops and restaurants properly marked as “pet friendly”. The abundance of public parks and beaches are perfect for taking dogs on walks and allowing them to explore nature.
