I currently live in Germany and they are so dog friendly and tolerant with animals in many places....to the point of bringing their dogs along with them to restaurants!!!
So that just gives me the opportunity to take Twinkie with me WHEREVER I go. Ive had her for only 2weeks but I have taken her to coffee shops, malls and supermarkets with no problems. Actually I have a hard time leaving the stores since everyone gathers around us and starts petting her.
