Hiya everyone. We are coming over to live next year but until settled we will be without a car for a few month. Are dogs allowed on buses? My dog is a staffy and i know that he needs to be muzzled so just needed to know situation about travelling with him on bus. Thanx in advance Jules

Only guide dogs are allowed on buses in Spain, officially. Dogs should be in crates and travel in the luggage compartment under the bus.
However, I have seen the locals travelling with their dogs but only the very small ones, the ones they keep in shopping baskets or tucked up in their arms.
Same with lots of shops. Despite "Perros No" signs, you often see them carrying the little ones around with them.
Doubt if that would work with a staffy, though.

Thanks Marcliff and i agree a 23kg staffy called Asbo might be abit tricky hiding!!
