Prague ranked fourth best city for dogs worldwide

Prague is the fourth most dog friendly city in the world, according to a global research study by the Berlin-based insurance company Coya, released on Wednesday to celebrate International Dog Day. San Francisco, Seattle and Tel-Aviv came in ahead of Prague, but the Czech capital ranked third, ahead of San Francisco, in terms of the number of dogs per 1,000 inhabitants (nearly 153).

The study took a list of cities around the world which have been previously cited as good locations for dogs and ranked them according to a list of comparable and available data such as how much dog owners follow rules, how many pet stores, vets and friendly establishments for dogs there are, and how much it costs to own a dog.
