Yes, Singapore is quite a friendly city for dogs. Most public places (including parks and beaches) allow dogs but the dogs will need to be on leash. Dogs are allowed in some restaurants. Usually you will be seated in the out door area. Transportation will be a bit more challenging as dogs are not allowed on public transport.

However, you must ensure that your desired species or breed is one that you can legally own in Singapore.

Our puppies Singapore are socially trained as they are exposed to human interaction and to other pets many times during the day. There are also a lot of trainings for the dogs: car training, potty training, stairs training, noise training, crate training, obedience training, and leash training. We have other mini-trainings for puppies and dogs.

The AVA defines animals that are legal for sale in Singapore as pets, and amongst them are familiar animals like dogs, cats and hamsters. Note that there no tarantulas or snakes in this list and that there are specific CITES appendices that need to be followed to prevent over-exploitation of endangered animals.

You can certainly bring your dogs out here, but do be wary of stray dogs that often travel together in packs. If you see them, avoid making any contact as they might get aggressive.

That's one of the downsides of living in public housing in Singapore. Despite the new size criteria which allow bigger dogs like local mixed-breed canines to be housed in HDB flats, cats are still not allowed. The penalty for keeping an unauthorised pet in an HDB flat can be hefty, with fines up to $4,000 for flouting HDB pet rules.
