On January 17th, pet owners in Madrid bring their furry friends to the San Antón church in Chueca. Here, pets receive a special blessing on this day that honors San Antonio Abad, the patron saint of animals. Besides blessings, other activities are planned around the days leading up to January 17th that are fun for the whole family, including a street parade, special church services, and enjoying traditional baked goods.
