So far as I know, this has not been mentioned on the forum.
I was actually researching laws affecting service dogs in Spain when I came across this, it is an English language article (for expats in Spain) about new laws affecting dog owners. There are now laws requiring owners to undergo a training course, inform the authorities that they own a dog and not to let them roam loose.
This is good news for us. my impression is that although there are still occasional nasty incidents involving dogs, there are fewer than they have been and becoming fewer. This might be the reason. It is also nice to know that if there is an incident, the law is on our side.
By the way, service dogs are allowed access to all public areas in Europe.
