Top 5 Dog-friendly Places in Berlin

Owning a dog in Berlin is no walk in the park (even when it’s exactly that)! Berlin is a big city and therefore can sometimes appear daunting for dog owners at first glance. The key to a happy dog and happy owner is knowing where you can go together for the best dog-friendly locations in Berlin. Briana, Quigley and I have good news: Berlin is an incredibly dog-friendly city! With an estimated 100,000+ pet dogs living in the German capital, there are plenty of things to do with your dog in Berlin (including many that won’t cost you a dime). Here are our Top 5 dog-friendly places in Berlin. If you'd like to discover more dog-friendly places in Berlin, no problem: Briana, Quigley and I are publishing a Dog-friendly Berlin-Guide soon. Here is a link to preorder the guide:
