Hello.  I had been researching areas initially in East inland Malaga, to retire to. I found a lovely house in Canillas De Albaida, but sadly there was an awful lot of dog barking across the village/valley morning noon and night.

Can anyone tell me what the village of Tolox is like to live in? Is it peaceful ?  I very much like the style of houses in the area for my price range and views are wonderful, but I am worried about it having the same dog issue. 

Thanking you in anticipation!

Hi there,

I think dog barking is a Spanish Thing, especially in rural areas. I've never been anywhere in Spain (outside cities, that is) where I've not heard dog barking - even in a very remote part of the sierra de gredos!  I guess you either have to accept it, or live somewhere else.

Hi!not sure about Torox, but I live outside Frigiliana and the dog barking is unbelievable, literally day and night and many dogs. Also weekends loud music until all hours.i agree with the previous person, hard to get away from it in Spain,

Thank you Melanie.  I love Frigiliana and Nerja area btw.

I'm now researching Olvera Village, near Ronda, Cadiz.  Wish me luck!

Tolox isn't too bad but in the early morning you can hear dogs barking but not all day and night at all - it's very quiet

Torrox Pueblo only has dogs barking when walking past there homes when the dog is on the roof terrace. Otherwise not any barking. But every morning people let their dogs out for a run and toilet before they go to school and work. But at 9.30-10am the road cleaner arrives from top of village working downwards cleaning up after the dogs. If you go for a walk before it is cleaned, it can be quite a shock as UK has different rules. Spain is brilliant and different
