Zagreb is a city known for its hospitality, so it comes as no surprise that its hearts and wide smiles often go out to pets as well. Therefore, your four-legged furballs can run around on several locations which are reserved especially for them, and they can also enjoy a walk through the green landscapes of Maksimir and Ribnjak parks, around the lakes Bundek and Jarun or exploring the slopes of Medvednica. A reprieve from this merry play can be sought in the very centre of the city. The irresistible call to have a cup of coffee coming from terraces on Zagreb’s rushing streets is always a good option, just like an evening get-together in one of the pubs which had secured a special green area for those curious paws. Pets are very popular in Croatia, and Zagrebians maintain a very relaxed approach when they are concerned. This means you will definitely come across a waiter carrying a bowl of water during your stay, greeted by a cheerful pup-salute.

If you are visiting Zagreb for a few days with your charming paw friend, and you wish to do a complete tourist sightseeing tour, here is how you can make it happen! Peek into the famous Grič tunnel, go for a ride on the funicular leading you to the Upper Town, and make sure you pose for a woof-woof selfie in front of the Strossmayer promenade. If your pet is interested in cultural exhibits, treat it to a special outing – there are several museums which accept pets as well! Keep in mind that pets are even allowed in shopping malls, and if they tire from all these adventures, they can always be taken on the public transportation system with just several simple rules to follow. If your pet is into luxury, worry not because you can arrange a VIP hotel experience. Oh yes, the city can offer that as well! Is this your first time in the Croatian capital? You aren’t familiar with the rules, laws and culturally acceptable behaviour related to pets? Here is some useful information which will make your movement around Zagreb as easy as a breeze!
