Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Common questions about dog hotels in the Dolomites.

Is there a muzzle requirement for dogs in South Tyrol?

In South Tyrol, as in the rest of Italy, there is an extended muzzle requirement. This means that you must always carry a muzzle with you, but your dog only has to wear it on public transport and in other designated places. You must also keep your dog on a leash outside built-up areas. The leash may not exceed 1.5 metres in length. The disposal of dog waste is mandatory.

What do I have to bear in mind when I travel abroad with my dog?

Before your holiday in South Tyrol, find out about the current entry regulations for dogs in Italy. Among other things, you are obliged to carry an EU pet passport with you. This is issued by your vet. Your dog must have been vaccinated against rabies at least 21 days and at most one year before entry. A microchip to identify the animal is also compulsory. Puppies under three months of age are not allowed to enter the country. As the dog owner, you are liable for any damage caused by your dog.
