Hi! In the summer of 2026, I'd like to travel Interrail from Italy to Norway with my 35kg dog. Is it possible to buy an Interrail pass for him too?

Interrail with big dog ticket

There’s no Interrail pass for a pet. You would need to contact each railway company you’re travelling with, and find out their policies on pets, then buy a pet ticket if necessary.
There’s a bit of info here, but you’d have to your own research. A lot of people have reported difficulty in buying a pet ticker on its own (since you’ll already have a pass for yourself).

Just to add some country-specific detail to this: for the Italy leg, Trenitalia and Italo both allow dogs — small dogs free in a carrier, larger dogs on a leash and muzzle for a reduced fare on regional trains (rules vary slightly by train type). For Switzerland, SBB has a "Dog Day Pass" for CHF 25 that covers unlimited trains for the day if your dog doesn't fit in a carrier.
I wrote up the full rules with sources for both countries here if it helps with planning: gossippet.com/italy-transport-by-train and gossippet.com/switzerland-transport-by-train. Worth checking each country on your route individually since rules really do vary a lot, as mentioned above.
