ACHILLE

Male · Senior · 9 years

Important mole with a charming gaze. His sweetness does not go unnoticed: immediately ready to be pampered. He does not get along with his peers. His potential family will have to get to know him before bringing him home. A garden would be desirable. Achille is waiting for you!!!

About ACHILLE

What life with ACHILLE looks like

ACHILLE is a large senior dog waiting at ENPA Verona in Verona.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇮🇹Adopting from Italy

Italian canili require adopters to sign a stewardship contract (affido) and may retain the right to verify the animal's wellbeing post-adoption. Animals are chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting ACHILLE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about ACHILLE?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ENPA Verona handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw ACHILLE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt ACHILLE if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ENPA Verona will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is ACHILLE already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if ACHILLE isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ENPA Verona early rather than rehoming privately; they know ACHILLE and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (IT). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
