For most owners, the most beautiful days of the year cannot be imagined without their furry family member. This is confirmed by an opinion survey by Forsa, according to which 42 percent of all dog owners take their four-legged friend with them on vacation and almost 20 percent travel at least occasionally with a dog. Tuscany is almost an insider tip among dog lovers. Here the season begins in April, when the thermometer rises to temperatures around 23 degrees, which are pleasant for dogs.

It is most beautiful in the early and late season
Tuscany is very easy to reach by car, so your four-legged friends are spared an overly stressful journey. But because the summers in central Italy are usually sunny and dry and temperatures inland can sometimes exceed 40 degrees, Elisa Santoni advises vacationing with your dog in the early or late season: “Then it is pleasantly warm, but extended Tours through old Tuscan towns and the beautiful landscape are far less strenuous for your four-legged companion." Holidays in spring or autumn bring another advantage: the general ban on dogs on the beaches is no longer so strict, so four-legged friends can also be found in many places You can really let off steam and swim in the sea away from the designated dog beaches.
Vacation with the pack? No problem!
Even though there are more and more offers for holidays with dogs all over the world, going on holiday with more than one or two dogs is still difficult today. Elisa Santoni is increasingly receiving inquiries from dog breeders or dog sitters who want to travel with a whole pack. “Several dogs are no problem for us at all,” she says, “our record is seven four-legged friends that we have accommodated in a beautiful holiday home at the same time and I’m really excited to see when this record will be beaten.”
Service for four-legged friends
In most dog-friendly holiday homes and apartments, they have prepared for their four-legged guests and baskets, pillows, toys, food and drinking bowls are already available, so you don't even have to lug them around. In addition to information about veterinarians, shopping opportunities for dog supplies and dog beaches nearby, two- and four-legged vacationers often also have a pool for dogs and a garden hose in the mostly fully fenced gardens.
