A dog friendly bus. Hong Kong rules :) http://www.cnlive.it/lifestyle/2014/07/30/hong-kong-autobus-ad-alto-tasso-cucciolosita.html Hong Kong has launched a new bus service that allows pets owners to take their dogs with them. I love that initiative and, as I have a German sheep dog called Lara that I adore, I am totally enthusiastic even if I'm not living in China. But I hope that it could be a starting point for an upcoming changement in all other countries. Actually, in Italy, taxis are too expensive and the public facilities as trains-buses-metros are forbidden to dogs. Just with few exceptions for small size dogs. I have a car, fortunately, but when I'm in Milan I always move public transports and I really don't know how I would have done if Lara was there with me. I think that pets are an important part of our life, they're a part of our families as they daily give us love and respect. The same respect is due to them. Do you agree? How is the situation for pets in your country?

Actually, in Italy, taxis are too expensive and dogs are not allowed on the public transport facilities such as trains-buses-metros are forbidden to dogs. There are only a few exceptions for small size dogs. I have a car, fortunately, but when I'm in Milan I always move use public transports and I really don't know how what I would have done if Lara was there with me.

I think that pets are an important part of our life, they're a part of our families as they daily give us love and respect. The same respect is due to them. (^suggestion: We owe them the same respect.)

Do you agree? How is the situation for pets in your country?
