Dogs are everywhere

I' ve been to many countries and many cities but never seen any city that has such a big amount of dog lovers who are walking on the streets with their beloved dogs. Seems like, every 1st or 2nd person in Barcelona has a dog in the house, and sometimes the number can go up to 4-5 dogs. Surprising, yet so weird that these dogs are well behaved and dogs do not roar to each other and do not even bark on people. What do Barcelonians do to their dogs to be so calm and peaceful?

In any other country I used to bypass the road if there is any dog on it, because I am used to think that some dogs can be really aggressive and got prepared for unexpected actions from dogs. I am a pet lover, I do love dogs. But, I am kind of fed up of stepping on the dog's poop at all times. Why don't some dog owners pick up after their pets? Watch where you step, because they are everywhere.

It is a great place to dog lovers and a nightmare to those who have phobia for dogs.  Hands up, dog lovers! If you don't have your own pet but you love dogs, you still have an opportunity to see and play with plenty of them outside. Majority of dog lovers here are kind and open minded. For those who are afraid of dogs, hold on, stay calm and don't be nervous. Dogs in Barcelona are everywhere, but they are all nice, because they are Barcelonians.
