Hi, my biglong haired but very friendly german shepherd is coming to spain with us but I an reading conflicting things on various blog sites. He.s been to france with us and well received everywhere, as the French appear to be a nation of dog lovers, but, I hear spain can be a little different? I am led to believe he may even be classed as a potential dangerous breed? I assure you , he,s a big softy. so I have prepared to purchase muzzles, for public places, and keep him off the beach. has anyone got any advice or experience of traveling to spain with a big dog, we are going to costa brava,

Ray

    Temperatures there will be well over 30c next week. Will that be comfortable for the poor old long haired dog?  He can't go in the sea, you can't go in the swimming pool, both of you together can't go into shops, supermarkets, public buildings or on public transport. Just walking up and down? Not much of a holiday?

    I replied to this in the duplicate thread which I hope you have found.  I have seen lots of dogs in the sea in France but I can't vouch for Spain in high season.
