There is very good news for people who refuse to go to the cinema because they do not want to leave their pet alone at home. The company K9 Cinemas recently opened the doors of the first cinema designed for dogs in the United States.
These pet friendly spaces have been put to the test in some places around the world. In Mexico, for example, this alternative has been implemented little by little, with short functions, scheduled in advance and scheduled for certain days of the month.
Pet owners are responsible for any damage and inconvenience caused by their dogs during the screening. In addition, the passage of large dogs is not allowed, being limited only to small or medium breeds.
In Spain, the Cinesa Madrid and Affinity circuit has also followed this unique initiative, but with special days, without deciding to fully implement the pet friendly functions in its calendar.
In Texas, K9 Cinemas has made the leap in this style of entertainment, as it offers constant projections for people and dogs in its facilities. The movie theaters allow each user to enter with up to two pets.
There is room for 25 spectators and the rest of the space is reserved exclusively for your dogs. In addition, K9 Cinemas makes available to customers treats for their pets, specially adapted to the diet of dogs.
Although the idea sounds pretty cool, you can’t imagine the number of requirements that these movie theaters demand so that your pet can enter.
First of all, with the issue of health they have become quite rigorous, because the least you want is for diseases to spread. People who decide to take their pets to the cinema, must send a valid and current vaccination certificate, to prove that their furry friends are completely healthy.
In addition to their vaccination certificate, dogs must have up-to-date deworming, have a leash in good condition, submit at all times to the supervision of their masters, and show good habits inside the cinema.
Pet owners must leave the room in case their pet wants to go to the bathroom, because there are no spaces available for this type of needs in cinemas and companies demand the greatest collaboration from their users in terms of hygiene and care of the facilities.
What is happening in Mexico, Spain and now the United States, is indicative that pet friendly spaces are becoming a trend all over the world, but…
