You can take dogs on buses (and trains) as long as you can carry them! In other words small dogs only, we cannot take our retriever on them 😟

Guide dogs or Assistance dogs are allowed but you will need to supply evidence of such.

Not sure the Tourist Office can be relied on in this instance but maybe someone has direct experience of travelling with small dogs on buses in Spain? We had a guide dog in training in the U.K. and took him on buses, trains, shops, cafes, everywhere. It’s not as easy in France and Spain perhaps.

Google came up with this...

Pets are permitted on high-speed AVE trains in Spain, provided they do not disturb other passengers and obtain a ticket. Certified guide dogs may travel on any train for free without a ticket.Jun 30, 2019
Can you take dogs on public buses in Spain?Generally speaking, dogs are allowed on buses as long as they are kept on the lead and not allowed to ride on a seat. There may be a small charge for taking your dog on the bus, but support dogs will be allowed to travel free of charge and they are always allowed on buses.Sep 14, 2018

Thank you that is interesting, we did try to take our small dog on a bus in Fuengirola and they refused but we tried at the train station and they said as long as he had a muzzle on it was OK seems different areas have different rules but i would like to take him on the bus.

Thanks I will look out for it but maybe from the car since the bus may not be a goer. Is it before the main street at the sea front?
