Buenos Aires is by all appearances very much a European city. It was founded by a flood of European immigrants. Most indigenous people were driven out. You can see the Italian influence in the architecture, language (a kind of Italian Spanish) and the food. The Spanish are the other predominate immigrant influence with culture, food and language. The German influence is apparent in two of the three most popular dogs you see: Boxers and German Shepards. Labs are the third most popular. Sadly they do not spay/neuter as we do, but all these dogs exist in harmony and surreal canine serenity. Go figure.
