As full-time travelers, my husband Steve and I can’t have any pets but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy meeting random cats and dogs during our travels.

Here are 24 delightful dog photos from around the world that showcase dogs we have enjoyed meeting over the last two years. I hope you enjoy meeting them too.

This fella lives in Zagreb, Croatia. He’s a little bit scruffy, a little bit dapper. I just hope that wasn’t his cigarette.

One of my favorite pictures. A man and his buddies in downtown San Jose, Costa Rica.

This happy fella was hanging around a restaurant in Bucharest, Romania. He decided that the spot right next to Steve’s chair was the best place to be.

I have no idea why this guy in Cuenca, Ecuador was holding an umbrella over the dog, but what a photo opportunity.

Don’t worry, he’s just sleeping. There were so many dogs on the streets in Paracas, Peru that you often had to walk around them. None of them were threatening and all seemed well cared for.

We met this scrappy little dog on a tour of District 13 in Medellin, Colombia. He was running into the street to chase every car and motorcycle that passed by. Then he would retreat to his doorway. His bark was definitely worse than his bite.

We saw many dogs in Peru that were wearing what looked like blankets turned into dog coats. Some were even wearing people clothes. This lucky one was labeled correctly.

I wasn’t joking about the people clothes. Apparently this guy from Cusco, Peru is quite the hoop star.

This is Bigote (Spanish for mustache). She, yes she, is an older dog we met at a restaurant in Huacachina, Peru.

This dog was hanging out at the train station in Cusco, Peru. He had it all figured out. He would approach a stranger with one front paw held up like he was hurt in hopes of getting some food and sympathy. What a little con man.

Just a man and his poodles in Buenos Aires.

Look at the happy face! He sat outside the gate to the Superpark amusement park in Cordoba, Argentina. I just know he wanted to ride the roller coaster.

Meet Negro, a celebrity in Cordoba, Argentina. Every afternoon he joins a tour group as it works its way through the city. His name means black in Spanish. Not very imaginative, but accurate.

After the tour he joined Steve and me for dinner before going home to his family for the night.

A common scene in Buenos Aires, especially in the Palermo neighborhood. The dog walkers have to tie the group to a fence or pole as they pick up and return their charges.

What a fantastic dog. He was walking down the sidewalk towards us. When he got to the street he sat down and waited for his master to catch up. And he was kind enough to pose for this photo.

We had so much fun playing fetch with this guy in La Cumbrecita, Argentina.

Another La Cumbrecita beauty.

A typical scene throughout Latin America. We were astonished by how well trained the dogs were.

Just chillin in Medellin, Colombia.

This is Betty. She was one of the resident dogs where we stayed in Bucharest. It was a gated property and when you approached from the road she and her cohort would bark warnings like crazy. But once you were inside, she was a sweetheart.

This photo doesn’t show how lively this dog was. He was visiting some ruins with his master and exploring everything and everyone.

I love the joy on this girl’s face as she runs with her dog and her dad on Taboga Island off Panama City, Panama.

These two really wanted to see what was going on in Huacachina, Peru.

This is Bansko, my playmate in Bansko, Bulgaria while Steve was recovering from his skiing injury. I thought Bansko was a girl, but a man came by and informed me that Bansko is a boy and he doesn’t understand English.  I’m not sure how he determined that (the language part, not the boy part).

I hope these photos put a smile on your face. Be sure to check out our post “20 Captivating Cats From Around the World.”

Happy traveling,
Linda
