Adopt Aron

Rottweiler · Male · Senior · 10 years

black spot garden. Needs a person who knows what it means to have a dog of this breed, or at least be firm and decisive but also gentle and kind. Aron has shown itself to be immediately social with volunteers; when you approach his enclosure he makes the "big voice" but still has a lot of desire to play, chase balls and wants to run. In these days we have seen that on walks he still does not walk well next to the person (but he will learn) and especially does not let any dog he meets escape from his sight; we can say that he does not seem to want to accept canine friendships. It is not a breed to take lightly, but with reasonable discipline and attention Aron will be a faithful companion. He is waiting for you at the animal shelter of Cane di Seriate!

orto lucente color nero focato. Necessita di una persona che sappia cosa vuol dire avere un cane di questa razza, o sappia comunque essere ferma e decisa ma anche dolce e gentile. Aron ha dimostrato di essere da subito socievole coi volontari; quando ti avvicini al suo recinto fa la "voce grossa" ma comunque ha molta voglia di giocare, rincorrere palloni e desideroso di correre. In questi giorni abbiamo visto che a passeggio non cammina ancora bene a fianco della persona (ma imparerà) e soprattutto non si lascia scappare dalla sua vista qualsiasi cane che incontra; diciamo che non sembra abbia voglia di accettare amicizie canine. Non è una razza da prendere alla leggera, ma con ragionevole disciplina e attenzioni Aron sarà un compagno fedele. Vi aspetta al Rifugio del Cane di Seriate!

About Aron

What life with Aron looks like

Aron is a large senior rottweiler dog waiting at Il Rifugio del Cane in Italy.

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 Aron, answered.

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