Dog café

A dog café is a type of business establishment where typically customers pay to spend time with domesticated canines for purposes of entertainment and relaxation.

[1][2] Such cafés may also provide other services such as food and beverages.

[2] Dog cafés can be found in many countries, ranging from places such as New York,[2] California,[3] and Vietnam.

[2] In 2024, two dog cafés in New York City were saved from closure by locals.

Over $20,000 was raised in a few days via a GoFundMe page, with an additional one bringing in over $250,000.
