Benidorm is in the Valencia region so the rules will probably be the same everywhere in the Valencian area.

Hello

 You can't take any animals on buses in this area ( to vets etc) afraid it's taxis only!

Cheers

The general rule is no BUT I did see a lady get on our bus with a small dog in her shopping bag get on a costa azul bus ( Santa Pola to pilar de la horadada route) . It was quite obvious she had him as he was poking his head over the top of the bag lol

I don't want to travel on a bus that has had a dog anywhere near my seat. In Benidorm you can't take a dog in a taxi either.

I wasn't asking your opinion on taking dogs on buses just information. 

Thanks

I think it was a reply to the wrong quote.

Think it was more a response to this one you said 'I don't want to travel on a bus that has had a dog anywhere near my seat'

Obviously you don't have a dog then.

No I don't have a dog as I don't have time to look after one properly.  Owners of dogs here let them mess on pavements and not clean up. The back streets are a complete mess. I've entered the lift in our building after dogs have had a pee,  the owners leave it!!! I don't want a dog on my bus seat when the owners leave it messy. I could add more, but won't.

Please dont imply that all dog owners are all the same. I own a dog and mine and myself are not in the group you are pointing out. Not all dog owners are the same. My dog is as clean as you !
