In many parts of Greece, dogs and cats run free. The state, however, identifies, spays/neuters, provides necessary shots and collars (the dogs) and the animals are allowed to run free, fed by tourists, merchants and residents. Many areas have independent adoption programs.
Two black dogs in Santorini. I watched them climb up and down the steep slopes and walk the narrow walls. A dog in the Roman Marketplace, Athens. He was chasing a cat that was too quick for the camera. A cat in Athens. Poodle? A springer spaniel encased in glass, Athens.
I write stories. You can read my work and see my photography at deficioscriptor.com or see my pictures of dogs at dogsandbikes.com.

And too many cats as well! I was in Athens & Santorini recently, and was very surprised by the strength of their feline population 😉
