Chicca

Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Chicca ha 14 anni e per tanto tempo ha conosciuto il calore di una casa e l’amore della sua mamma umana. Poi, improvvisamente, tutto è cambiato, la sua mamma è stata ricoverata e Chicca è arrivata da noi. A 14 anni ritrovarsi in un ambiente sconosciuto, circondata da persone e rumori nuovi, non è facile. Chicca è una cagnolina dolce e timida, inizialmente un po’ spaventata. Ma basta darle un po’ di tempo, avvicinarsi con delicatezza e conquistare la sua fiducia perché si lasci andare mostrando tutta la sua dolcezza e il suo desiderio di ricevere affetto. Per Chicca cerchiamo una casa tranquilla, dove possa ritrovare la serenità che ha conosciuto per tanti anni.

About Chicca

What life with Chicca looks like

Chicca is a medium-sized senior dog waiting at Pet Rescue Italia in Cornaredo.

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 Chicca, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Chicca?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Pet Rescue Italia handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Chicca on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Chicca if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pet Rescue Italia 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Chicca 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 Chicca 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 Pet Rescue Italia early rather than rehoming privately; they know Chicca 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.
