Switzerland evokes a picture of beautiful snow-capped alps and delicious Swiss chocolate. The country is also well-known for how pet-friendly it is; you can bring your pet dog with you on trains and buses, shops and restaurants, and many famous tourist attractions.

Switzerland is one of the most dog friendly places on the planet. Since Switzerland is quite a wealthy country, many people own pets. There are over half a million registered dogs in Switzerland and even 1.5 million cats while there are about 8 million people living in Switzerland. So that means for every 16 people there is one dog which makes it one of the most dog-dense countries. Pets are generally treated really well and are increasingly popular as an alternative to children. But that’s probably a worldwide phenomenon, at least in the western world… So all of this makes Switzerland a super comfy place to travel to with your dog.
