Is it possible to go on a bus in Minsk with a dog in your arms: what they say in Minsktrans
Rules for the transport of dogs in Minsk: bag-carrying, passport and pet token. What did the head of Minsktrans say after the Spitz incident.
A girl with a spitz in her arms was dropped off the bus, although she said she had ridden the dog for six years without problems. Who is right and whether it is time to soften the rules, discussed in the project “Face to Face” on ONT.by with the General Director of “Minsktrans” Konstantin Gololobov.
What the rules require
According to Gololobov, the rules are the same for everyone, and the requirements for the transportation of pets are prescribed. You need a bag with an absorbent bottom, as well as documents for the animal.
The girl was just lucky, you can say, once 6 years of driving. All our pets are now registered. Got a passport, got a badge. This is also a requirement that is prescribed in the rules, the general director of Minsktrans stated.

Why are you landing right now
The rules have changed, the guest explained.
“You know, the rules have changed,” Konstantin Gololobov said. Since March, a new version of the decree has entered, and the requirements have even been slightly tougher in relation to pet owners.
He added that in some cases, for certain types of transportation, a veterinary book with vaccinations may be needed.
Who decides on the spot
The final decision is made by the driver because he is responsible for everyone in the cabin.
“The driver in any case is responsible for the passengers, for everyone – and who is with the dog, and who is watching,” – said the speaker of the program.
According to Gololobov, the company receives complaints from passengers who are disturbed by dogs in the cabin.
Will the rules ease
When asked whether to allow the transport of small dogs in their arms, Gololobov said that the law must be respected.
But if there is a law, we cannot discuss it, we must comply with it, he concluded.
