Keep the tail wagging- Is the dog for you?


It may sound silly to some people, but the pleasure of sharing a life with a dog can extend the life span of both, humans and dogs. It's been proven that having a pet help lower blood pressure and reduce anxiety and depression. Because of this beneficial effect, show love to your pet and reciprocate it.


Mauricio & Antigona- Paw traveller
Having a dog brings with it the change of life and comfort you are used to, but it brings a lot of selfless love that your furry friend will give you.

For example, forget about sudden calls on Friday afternoon to go somewhere for a long weekend - you have a dog and you will no longer be able to leave the house for more than 10, 12 hours without planning ahead.

There is a lots of work around the dog, they are reasonably independent but still need basic supervision. You have to take care of them, prepare their food, bathe them, take care of their health, find time to play…

I share my life with dogs, they are my best friends, cute, trustworthy and very funny.

The part I love most about my dogs is that they make me better, and they love me to the heaven, even on days when things are not going so well.
All my bad days becoming better enhanced by their relentless enthusiasm, and so is with the good days - the good days are even better with them!


Mauricio- Paw the traveller
More than twenty years ago, when I got from my husband my first dog Mauricio, he filled a hole in my life that I never thought that ever existed.
That little furry devil, with his selfless love, taught me to take good care of another being, and certainly turned me into a better person.
When you have a dog you become happier because your dog is so fun and affective, he hangs around with excitement, and hardly that anyone can stay angry when he's around.

A dog's life is too short and that's really their only mistake. Dogs do not live as long as we would like, and the world is wide and interesting and you will have to hurry if you want your dog to see and experience lots of different things.


Antigona & Mishkin on the beach- Paw traveller
Every experience with a pet is different. There's no way to know what kind of funny nonsense they can make because each pet is an individual.


Antigona- Paw traveller
Before making a decision to take a dog, think carefully about your obligations and whether you are ready to sacrifice some of your comfort for the sake of your pet.
Are you ready to take care of him selflessly, take him for a walk every day regardless of the weather, are you ready to treat pet hair (which will be everywhere, no matter how much you vacuum) as if it is a decoration and a deliberate part of interior ... and so on for the next ten, fifteen years?

If you are ready, you will surely realize through having a four-legged friend is an enriching life experience that is likely to make you a better person.

Jamas! - Tastes of Greece - RETSINA wine

 Retsina - a Greek wine with a long tradition which is mainly produced from Savatiano, a not very well-known grape variety characterized by an extremely high percentage of sugar in the grape seed. Paw traveller Retsina is a wine that people have been drinking since ancient times. S ince they did not have cooling methods they used resin to seal the amphorae in which they kept the wine, which resulted in the authentic and unusual taste of this drink.
