And while dogs are allowed onto public transport, they're often required to wear a muzzle. That said, the laws aren't always strictly enforced, so just be mindful.

In terms of public transport, you'll have more difficulties with a large dog. But what Spain doesn't offer in ease, it more than makes up for in quality of experiences. You'll find beautifully landscaped dog parks where your four-legged friend can run off the lead, hiking trails through dazzling landscapes, and beaches that stretch on for miles where you and your pet can splash in the crystalline sea. Some cities, like Valencia, are recognized with a "pet friendly" seal, proving what a fitting option Spain is for your pet friendly holidays. ### Pet travel requirements: - **Pet passport** - **Microchip**, or **tattoo** if applied before July 2011 - Up to date on **vaccinations**, **rabies** vaccine - **Health certificate** from your local veterinarian, though conditions apply based on where you're travelling from - Certain breeds must be **muzzled** in public spaces [![pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-dog-restaurant-outside-min](https://magazine.lecollectionist.com/hs-fs/hubfs/pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-dog-restaurant-outside-min.jpg?width=2499&height=1668&name=pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-dog-restaurant-outside-min.jpg)](https://www.lecollectionist.com/en/luxury-villas-rentals/spain) [![pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-villa-balagueret-min](https://magazine.lecollectionist.com/hs-fs/hubfs/pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-villa-balagueret-min.jpg?width=2499&height=1668&name=pet-friendly-holiday-destinations-luxury-rentals-spain-villa-balagueret-min.jpg)](https://www.lecollectionist.com/en/luxury-rental/villa-balagueret-mallorca) [Villa Balagueret](https://www.lecollectionist.com/en/luxury-rental/villa-balagueret-mallorca) in Mallorca, Spain ### Dog friendly accommodation: [Villa Sa Punta de s'Aguila](https://www.lecollectionist.com/en/luxury-rental/villa-sa-punta-de-s-aguila-mallorca) is one of our best pet friendly accommodations in Spain.
