Is Strasbourg Dog-Friendly?, Strasbourg, France

If you’re wondering whether you can comfortably take your dog on vacation with you to Strasbourg, wonder no more. Strasbourg is a wonderfully dog-friendly city to visit in the Alsace region of France.

If you’re visiting France, you can reach Strasbourg conveniently by train with your dog from many nearby cities. Dogs are allowed on all French trains. Small dogs can be taken in an enclosed travel bag for a small fee. If they’re too big for a bag, they must be leashed and wear a muzzle.

The main train station is conveniently located in the heart of the city.
