Baley

Unknown

A beautiful and well-behaved dog waiting for you in dog shelter! Baley, a German shepherd, large size, presumed birth year 2018 and abandoned in the summer of 2020. Since then he has been in dog shelter suffering from loneliness, the heat of summer and the cold of winter, without a walk, without affection. He shows gentle, calm, sociable and confident with people. He gets along with other dogs, both males and females. Good on leash. For lovers of this breed of dog, choosing to adopt Baley would be a wonderful action. He is in a private affiliated dog shelter in the province of Rome but we also place him in the north, after the necessary pre-adoption home check, vaccinated, spayed, tested for leishmaniasis and obviously with microchip. 328 003 45 08 You can also send an SMS or leave a message in the voicemail and you will be contacted as soon as possible.

Un cane bellissimo e bravo che ti sta aspettando in canile! Baley, derivato pastore tedesco, taglia grande, nascita presunta 2018 ed abbandonato nell’estate del 2020. Da allora si trova in canile a patire la solitudine, il caldo d’estate e il freddo d’inverno, senza una passeggiata, senza affetto. Si mostra docile, tranquillo, socievole e confidente con le persone. Va d’accordo con gli altri cani, sia maschi sia femmine. Bravo al guinzaglio. Per gli amanti di questa razza di cani scegliere di adottare Baley sarebbe una bellissima azione. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma lo affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, vaccinato, sterilizzato, testato leishmania e ovviamente con microchip. 328 003 45 08 Potete anche inviare un sms o lasciare un messaggio in segreteria e verrete ricontattati al più presto.

About Baley

What life with Baley looks like

Baley is a large adult dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇮🇹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 Baley, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Baley?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Associazione ALFA handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Baley on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Baley if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Associazione ALFA 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 Baley 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 Baley 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 Associazione ALFA early rather than rehoming privately; they know Baley 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.
