Individual pet dogs are uncommon in Istanbul, but there are tons of strays, who get taken care of as neighborhood mascots. They are extremely well behaved, and almost never bark -- its like both parties (human and animal) have worked out the rules for this arrangement. The city of Istanbul attempted to round all the dogs up, but protests forced them to adopt a tag/neuter-spay/vaccinate policy. Its a really fascinating and endearing example of an alternative form of dog-human coexistence.
