Tuscans may soon be able to take pets out to dinner
Filed under: Restaurants, Italy
Well, it’s getting on toward summer time. It’s the time of year when you want to take your dog on a walk right down to your favorite dining/ drinking establishment (if you live in a place where that’s a possibility, that is). In the US, and I assume a large number of other places around the world, you’d be relegated to the patio or sidewalk areas if you brought Fido along. That’s nice for this time of year, but it gets pretty chilly of you want to do that in the colder months.
If you lived in Tuscany, though, that might be about to change. Lawmakers there are looking into passing a law that would allow pet owners to bring the hairier members of the family along to any public venue, including museums and theaters. There are conditions: the pet must be on a lead, the pet must be well behaved, proper hygiene must be looked after, and the pet must be vaccinated and healthy.
If your baby doesn’t do well in with other dogs or has hygiene problems, then you’re out of luck. But if a pet in Tuscany meets all the rules, then they can go out to dinner with their person. Life is sweet under the Tuscan sun.
