Pepe è un cane di circa 5 anni, con tratti da molossoide e anima ancora da cucciolo. Ama le passeggiate e i momenti condivisi, ma ha anche un carattere indipendente. Cerca una persona paziente e consapevole, non di prima esperienza, con cui costruire un legame di fiducia e serenità. Pepe ha tratti di dolcezza nascosta, ti osserva con quei suoi occhioni grandi ed espressivi, confidando che tu sia sempre al suo fianco. E’ un tesoro nascosto che sta aspettando la sua occasione!

About Adotta Pepe

What life with Adotta Pepe looks like

Adotta Pepe is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio il Bau (Bastardini) in Italy.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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 Adotta Pepe, answered.

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