There hasn't been lockdown in France for quite a while, but we do have a curfew, like in Quebec. However, here in France the exception (inter alia) is:
"Déplacements brefs, dans un rayon maximal d’un kilomètre autour du domicile pour les besoins des animaux de compagnie."
"Animaux de compagnie" can be translated as "pets" or the term I prefer, "companion animals". The term would apply to any animal kept as a companion in the home, provided one could show that the animal is indeed a pet and has to "do its needs". I have not yet heard of anyone taking a pet peacock for a late night walk, haha!
I wonder why Quebec has chosen to limit the exception to only dogs?
