Italian municipal pet owner training initiatives

Overview

Municipalities in Italy have initiated educational programs for pet owners to promote animal welfare and public safety.

In Piacenza, the local municipality and Ausl launched free courses for dog and cat owners. The program includes modules on animal behavior, health, and aggression control, requiring participants to complete 15 hours of instruction to receive a certificate.

Similarly, Udine introduced a training course for dog owners supported by the Order of Veterinarians of the Province of Udine and funded by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region. This program offers theoretical and practical lessons, culminating in an official certification referred to as a ‘patentino’ to encourage responsible ownership and prevent aggression incidents.
