Adopt Bella

Pit Bull Terrier · Female · Adult · 7 years

Bella è una Pitbull adulta, bella di nome e di fatto! Purtroppo la sua famiglia non ha più potuto occuparsi di lei, e ora si ritrova in un box a sognare una nuova casa.💭🏡 In questi pochi giorni che è con noi abbiamo già potuto notare che è bravissima al guinzaglio, non si scompone davanti a motorini o biciclette e affronta persino il veterinario con estrema calma. In macchina è una passeggera impeccabile, tranquilla e composta. In questo momento stiamo gestendo una dermatite e qualche altro problemino di salute, ma nulla di grave, stiamo già indagando per risolvere tutto e far tornare il suo mantello splendente. Chi vuole iniziare una nuova avventura con lei? BELLA – Canile a Calderara di Reno (BO) SESSO: FEMMINA TAGLIA: MEDIA DATA DI NASCITA: 03/01/2019 RAZZA: PITBULL 📍 Adottabile a Bologna, provincia e in Emilia Romagna. Si valutano anche richieste fuori regione SOLO se disposti a fare un percorso di conoscenza in canile.

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is a medium-sized adult pit bull terrier dog waiting at Fuori Le Zampe ODV in Bologna.

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 Bella, answered.

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