    1. I imagine the UKs will go up further since the new rental laws around pets. I know so many people who have got dogs or cats this past year because previously their landlords said no pets.

      “Get the hell out of here, filthy animal.”

    3. It’s become trendy in poland for teenagers to adopt dogs from shelters,
      so now every julka is walking around with a mutt.

      But thehere are more purebred dogs also,
      so there’s actually something nice to look at.

    4. Romania, where the dog is mandatory if you have a house, considering how many thieves there are, you can’t trust shit in this country, let alone to leave a bike without lock for 2 minutes when you go in a grocery store.

    5. Its generational. I was raised with the dog. And I can’t imagine not having one. They bring a lot of joy in life. Lots of love goes around. Nothing better after hard day of working coming back home to dog happily freaking out you are back.

      In Greece the percentage is much higher, but not everyone has adopted officially or has a their dog chipped. Also, many people (older mostly) in villages take care of 2-3 dogs each, but they mostly let them on their gardens and don’t call them pets or that they own them, even though they take care of them. Same with cats. The mentality i think is a bit different than what theap shows.

    7. I’m with the Turks on this one.  I don’t mind dogs, just don’t want one in the house.

      In Italy is by far higher, in residential areas or small palaces it’s 100%. Any family has at least one dog.

      Yep, dogs everywhere—that’s basically what my neighborhood looks like (Warsaw, Poland). P.S. I have two myself.

    10. I live in Poland and I fucking hate it that we have dogs everywhere

      Dog owners go with them everywhere – cafes, restaurants, barbershops, food halls, cosmetic/health stores, convenience stores, fucking everywhere. It’s unhygienic at best and horrifyingly disgusting at worse. Most people still don’t clean up their dog’s shit from public spaces like a grass lawn, and every corner of the city smells like piss because, well, dogs piss everywhere. Dogs are kept inside flats and houses while their owners go to work, so the whole housing estates literally shake from constant howling and barking. Statistics say there are around 50,000 registered dog attacks on other people yearly, yet the government does shit about it.

    11. Two things that shocked me in Greece as a Polish tourist were how few dogs there were and how cheap and good gyros is.

    12. Put Georgia on like 200% we have shit tone of stray dogs and some more degenerates who use NGO moneys to have stray dogs outside in the streets forever so they can get more NGO money more and more

    13. 18% only for NL?? Thank god it’s not higher. Our green spaces are littered with dog shit already.

      Here in Switzerland, a lot of families live in apartments (so either not dog friendly or not allowed by the landlord), you have to attend mandatory dog training classes and vet bills are astronomically expensive.

      If there is a map about “hate against roma people” this map would prolly match that 1 to 1 lmao

    16. I would never give up our dog but OMG did I underestimate the work of a (rescue) dog even though people tell you dogs are a lot of work. I’ll also never get another dog. They truly tie you down and I have him on my mind what feels like 24/7

      As a Pole, I can confirm that it’s a tragedy if you live in an apartment. Because so many people have dogs in their apartments, you can hear them barking all day long.
