Adopt Chanel

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

After 10 years of exploitation and little love, she certainly didn't deserve to spend her last years in a dog shelter! Chanel in this photo has already gone for her daily walk, has already received her dose of cuddles and freedom, but she knows that now she will have to wait for another day to pass before she can feel like just a dog again, if only for half an hour. The life of Chanel is waiting to be lived. She is so kind and affectionate, good with people, she would love her human with the loyalty that repays every sacrifice. Chanel deserves a family, a home, lots of peace. No other dogs, already spayed.

Dopo 10 anni di sfruttamento e poco amore, non meritava certo di passare gli ultimi anni in canile! Chanel in questa foto è gia uscita per la passeggiata quotidiana, ha gia ricevuto la sua dose di coccole e libertà, ma sa che adesso dovrà aspettare che un altro giorno passi prima di tornare a sentirsi semplicemente un cane, per almeno mezz'ora. La vita di Chanel è attesa di vivere. È così buona e affettuosa, brava con persone, amerebbe il suo umano con la fedeltà che ripaga di ogni sacrificio. Chanel merita una famiglia, una casa, tanta serenità. No altri cani, già sterilizzata. CANILE RIFUGIO BRESCIA

About Chanel

What life with Chanel looks like

Chanel is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Canile Rifugio di Brescia in Brescia.

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 Chanel, answered.

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