Austria's first Corgi-Café closes after only one month!

Austria experienced a short but exciting episode with its first Corgi-Café, which opened in Vienna on December 1, 2024. Despite the constant customer assaults and fully composed reservations, the café had to close again after only one month. The operators kept themselves covered by the exact background, reported OE24.at. After all, the two Corgis Teodor and Tegla had caused a sensation as an animal attraction, but after two weeks the absence of the two clouded the joy of the guests. The reason for the lack of dogs remains unclear, but reference was made to bureaucratic hurdles. On December 29, they decided to make a permanent closure, which could be based on the strict conditions of the Veterinary Office MA 60.

The idea behind the Corgi-Cafés

The concept of the animal cafes, which has its origin in Asia, was already very popular. Originally founded in Taiwan in 1998 with cat cafes, the trend developed quickly in Japan. A similar Corgi-Café, the "Corgi in the Garden" in Bangkok, is a prime example of the success of such facilities. There, customers can play for $ 11 per person with 12 Corgis and spend their time with the dogs. Tanzhanok Kanawaong, the operator, has developed a well -thought -out system that ensures that the animals get enough calm and movement while the customers delight them. This type of animal love has proven to be particularly successful, as reported by Galileu.
