Foof Museo del Cane

Foof Museo del Cane, Specialised museum in Mondragone, Italy.

Foof Museo del Cane is a museum in Mondragone, in the province of Caserta, Campania, and the only museum in Europe entirely devoted to the dog. Its 20,000 m² site is split into two zones: one displays ancient finds tracing the evolution and history of the dog, the other keeps live animals of breeds from around the world.

Foof is the only museum in Europe entirely devoted to dogs, located in Mondragone. It received the Riconoscimento Museo innovativo at the XXX national congress of ANMLI and a special mention in the "La Fabbrica nel Paesaggio" competition promoted by the Italian Federation of UNESCO Clubs. In 2014 it drew 38,000 visitors, 18,000 of them school pupils on educational visits. It holds patronage from the Ministry of Public Education, the Campania regional council and the Province of Caserta, and an agreement with the veterinary medicine faculty of the University of Naples Federico II.

The museum's name, Foof, is a playful onomatopoeic nod to a dog's bark, fitting for a collection built around the animal. Its live section keeps dogs of breeds from around the world, so the cultural side of the visit is watching and meeting real animals rather than only reading panels. The museum also works with the veterinary medicine faculty of the University of Naples Federico II.

Foof covers 20,000 m² in Mondragone, split between a section with ancient finds on the dog's evolution and a section with live dogs of breeds from around the world. Plan enough time to cross both areas, and note that the live-animal section is a working part of the museum, so visits there follow the staff's directions.
