Life in Korea is good, but it would be a whole lot better if I had my dog with me. Life just isn't complete without him. In Korea it's not always possible to keep pets and my apartment is certainly not a good home for a dog, although I've though about getting a companion I would never, because that would be like cheating on my dog. Besides, there is no dog in the whole world that would come close to being better than my Rocco!
So anyway, back to the topic of Korea not being a suitable place to keep a pet… There are many animal lovers out there who can't have their own pet, and the solution…well a pet cafe! In seoul there are dog and cat cafes that you can visit in order to get some animal loving.
I went to BAU House Dog Cafe, and although I felt a bit guilty for being there without my own, it was just great to be surrounded by canines. We had to wait for quite a while before being seated, but you can still walk around and play with the dogs while you wait.
If you have your own dog you can bring him/her a long for a play date. The dogs at the cafe are both people- and dog- friendly.
You can order a selection of beverages, but unfortunately the only food is doggie treats.
It is well maintained and the 'waiters' are constantly cleaning up after the dogs and sanitizing, so there's no need to worry about the smell.
with a face like that of course he can sleep on the table

playing tug-o-war with a treat
Although I am more of a dog person, I would still like to check out the cat cafe. There is however one cat who lives at Bau House, but I only saw him briefly as he darted past me.
