Adopt CAMI

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 6 months

In the first days, she cried constantly, couldn't stand being separated from her mother and could certainly not know what she had escaped. Patrizia did everything to comfort her; cuddles, carrots, and lots of time spent together. Now she has her own stall, she likes to run around in the field and has made friends with the kids who patiently tolerate her energetic playfulness. CAMI is a young animal who never gets tired of playing and exploring everything around her. She doesn't like to be alone; when she doesn't see Patrizia for a while, she calls her with a bray that she only uses for her, and as soon as she sees her again, she gesticulates, lighting up entirely. CAMI teaches that any language is understandable to those who want to understand. Seeing her chase the small female dog Lolli Polli around the fence without ever getting tired, the volunteers from Enpa Modena feel lucky taking care of this strange, curious, and nice little creature.

Read original (it)

Nei primi giorni piangeva continuamente, non riusciva a sopportare il distacco dalla sua mamma e non poteva certo sapere a cosa era scampata. Patrizia ha fatto di tutto per consolarla; coccole, carotine e tanto tempo passato insieme. Ora ha una stalletta tutta sua, le piace sgambettare nel campo e ha fatto amicizia con le caprette che tollerano pazientemente la sua irruente giocosità. Cami è una cucciolona che non si stanca mai di giocare e curiosare ogni cosa le capiti intorno. Non ama stare sola, quando non vede Patrizia per un po’ la chiama con un raglio che riserva solo a lei e, appena la rivede, gesticola illuminandosi tutta. Cami insegna che qualunque lingua è comprensibile a chi desidera comprendere. Vedendola rincorrere la cagnolina Lolli Polli intorno alla rete senza mai stancarsi, i volontari di Enpa Modena si sentono fortunati nel prendersi cura di questa bizzarra, curiosa e simpatica creaturina.

About CAMI

What life with CAMI looks like

CAMI is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at ENPA in Rome.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

Note from the shelter: Separation anxiety - does not like to be alone and calls for her caregiver when separated

🇮🇹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 CAMI, answered.

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