Because it makes sense. <\/h2>\n\n<p>Mariejoe loves walking through the city with me. I do too. Most of the time. But when it&#8217;s hot, when the distance is long, or when I simply don&#8217;t feel like asphalt \u2013 then we take the subway. It&#8217;s a sensible decision.    <\/p>\n\n<p>What many don&#8217;t know: In the MVV Munich, a dog rides for free. No dog ticket, no surcharge, no extra fee \u2013 as long as you have a valid ticket yourself. This is one of the more pleasant rules of this city. I say that as someone who doesn&#8217;t immediately like all Munich regulations.   <\/p>\n\n<p>The MVV is the network that connects Munich and the entire metropolitan area \u2013 subway, S-Bahn, tram, bus, regional trains. There are clear rules for dogs and their humans. Those who know them have no problems. Those who don&#8217;t sometimes find themselves on the platform with a dog. <a href=\"https:\/\/animalconnect.de\/en\/rules\/keeping-a-dog-in-munich-all-rules-obligations-and-tips-for-dog-owners\/\" style=\"text-decoration: underline;color: #6C988D;font-weight: 600\" title=\"Dog Rules Munich\">All rules regarding dog ownership in Munich<\/a> are available in the comprehensive overview \u2013 this article focuses only on the MVV.   <\/p>\n\n<hr \/>\n\n<h2>When does my dog ride for free on the MVV?<\/h2>\n\n<p>The rule is simple. Beautifully simple, almost too simple for Munich. <\/p>\n\n<p>One dog per passenger can be taken along for free \u2013 provided the human has a valid MVV ticket or a Deutschlandticket. No separate dog ticket. No surcharge. Done.   <\/p>\n\n<ul>\n  <li>\ud83c\udfab <strong>Any valid MVV ticket is sufficient<\/strong> \u2013 single ticket, day ticket, monthly ticket, Deutschlandticket, subscription \u2013 all count<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udc15 <strong>One dog per person<\/strong> \u2013 free, on a leash, in vehicles and at stations<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udc3e <strong>Second and additional dogs<\/strong> \u2013 each requires a child&#8217;s ticket, unless it fits in a basket or bag<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udc5c <strong>Small dogs in a bag or basket<\/strong> \u2013 travel for free for the dog; the owner, of course, still needs a valid ticket<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83e\uddae <strong>Guide dogs and assistance dogs<\/strong> \u2013 always travel for free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>A dog has no right to a seat.

You don&#8217;t. <\/em>\n\n<hr \/>\n\n<h2>What are the rules for leashes and muzzles on the MVV?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Two rules. The first is absolute. The second is situational. Both are stated in the official MVV transport regulations and in the Munich dog ordinance.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 style=\"font-size:18px;margin-top:20px\">Leash requirement: always, everywhere<\/h3>\n\n<p>In all MVV vehicles and within S-Bahn and U-Bahn stations, dogs must be on a leash. The City of Munich specifies for public transport and train stations: dogs must generally be kept on a short leash. A tracking leash or long flexi-leash therefore does not comply with the official requirements.  <\/p>\n\n<ul>\n  <li>\ud83d\udccf Short leash \u2013 not a tracking leash, not a 5-meter flexi-leash<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\ude89 Also applies in the stations themselves, not just on the train<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\ude8c Applies to all MVV modes of transport \u2013 U-Bahn, S-Bahn, tram, bus, regional train<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udd12 Attach leash to collar or harness \u2013 secure against slipping off<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 style=\"font-size:18px;margin-top:20px\">Muzzle: situational \u2013 but have it with you just in case<\/h3>\n\n<p>A general muzzle requirement does not apply to every dog according to MVV transport regulations. A muzzle is required if the dog could endanger passengers. In practice, this means: if you are traveling with an insecure, very agitated, or unpredictable dog, you should have a muzzle with you and accustom the dog to it beforehand.  <\/p>\n\n<p>For the Bayerische Regiobahn (BRB), dogs not traveling in a transport container are subject to leash and muzzle requirements. This applies to popular excursion routes such as towards Tegernsee, Lenggries, or Bayrischzell. <\/p>\n\n<ul>\n  <li>\ud83d\ude10 <strong>On the MVV:<\/strong> Muzzle if there&#8217;s a potential danger to passengers<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udfe0 <strong>On the BRB:<\/strong> Leash and muzzle required for dogs outside a transport container<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>My tip:<\/strong> Always have a muzzle with you \u2013 and familiarize your dog with it beforehand so it&#8217;s not a drama<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83e\uddae <strong>Assistance dogs:<\/strong> do not need to wear a muzzle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<em>Perfect for: anyone who didn&#8217;t know that the BRB has different rules than the subway. Now they know. <\/em>\n\n<hr \/>\n\n<h2>Which dogs are not allowed on the MVV?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Dangerous dogs are excluded from transport on the MVV. The Munich dog ordinance specifies: dangerous dogs are not permitted in MVV vehicles or S-Bahn and U-Bahn stations. Which dogs are considered dangerous in Bavaria is determined by the Bavarian Dangerous Dog Ordinance; for questions regarding classification, the Kreisverwaltungsreferat in Munich is the competent authority.  <\/p>\n\n<ul>\n  <li>\ud83d\udeab <strong>Dangerous dogs:<\/strong> Transport excluded \u2013 in all vehicles and S-Bahn and U-Bahn stations<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\udccb Which dogs are considered dangerous in Bavaria is determined by the Bavarian Dangerous Dog Ordinance<\/li>\n  <li>\u2705 <strong>All other dogs:<\/strong> are allowed if the rules are followed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Here you can find more information on <a href=\"https:\/\/animalconnect.de\/en\/?p=5603\" style=\"color: #6C988D;font-weight: 600\">dangerous dogs and listed breeds in Munich.<\/a> If you are unsure whether your dog is classified as dangerous, you should inquire with the KVR Munich beforehand.<\/p>\n\n<em>Perfect for: anyone who has a dog with a particular appearance and wants to know beforehand if it will be a problem.<\/em>\n\n<hr \/>\n\n<h2>Taking your dog on the S-Bahn: Excursion destinations from Munich<\/h2>\n\n<p>The best thing about the MVV: It takes us out. Far out. Tegernsee, Starnberger See, Ammersee, Isar Valley. With a valid ticket or Deutschlandticket, the dog rides for free \u2013 even beyond the city limits, as long as you stay within the MVV tariff zone.   <\/p>\n\n<p>If you travel beyond the MVV tariff zone, you should check the rules of the respective transport company. On Deutsche Bahn, dogs not carried in a transport box must be on a leash and muzzled; separate ticket rules also apply to larger dogs. <\/p>\n\n<ul>\n  <li>\ud83c\udfd4\ufe0f <strong>S-Bahn towards Starnberg:<\/strong> Dog free, short leash, within the MVV area<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83c\udf0a <strong>BRB towards Tegernsee \/ Bayrischzell:<\/strong> Leash and muzzle required for dogs outside a transport container<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83d\ude86 <strong>Deutsche Bahn outside MVV:<\/strong> observe separate ticket and muzzle rules; larger dogs do not simply travel with the Deutschlandticket<\/li>\n  <li>\ud83c\udf33 All <a href=\"https:\/\/animalconnect.de\/en\/outings\/the-best-dog-friendly-destinations-in-munich\/\" style=\"text-decoration: underline;color: #6C988D;font-weight: 600\" title=\"Excursion destinations with dogs in Munich\">excursion destinations with dogs in Munich and the surrounding area<\/a> \u2013 for those who need inspiration on where the S-Bahn can take them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<em>Perfect for: anyone who wants to know where the MVV can take them with their dog.
