Chicco

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Generalities: microchipped and vaccinated, short-haired buff mixed-breed dog. Currently not spayed, this will be done before the adoption placement. Character: Chicco is a dog that becomes very attached to his main person, from whom he even allows cuddling, but with other people tends to be grumpy, with some growls. On a leash, he is quite confident, has no particular problems with the environment, and is normally handled with a collar. He is currently used to living in a house with a garden, free to come and go; he is used to being alone at home, and does not cause damage. The above information refers to an assessment made here and now and as reported by the owners. Ideal adoption: For Chicco we are looking for people with experience with dogs, available to a getting-to-know process with the dog before adoption, better in small family nuclei where the management of the dog (meals/outs) are equally divided. People who do not get discouraged in front of possible difficulties, but are willing to be followed by a professional if needed. No small children. The presence of another dog, preferably female, will be evaluated; a character compatibility test will be required to be carried out in the dog shelter in the presence of an operator. Although not excluding adoption placement in an apartment, it is thought that a small house with a little garden, allowing Chicco to come and go, may be more appropriate. background:

Generalità: Microchippato e vaccinato, meticcio dal pelo corto fulvo. Al momento non è sterilizzato, verrà fatto prima dell’affido Carattere: Chicco è un cane che si lega molto alla sua persona di riferimento dalla quale si lascia anche coccolare, con tutte le altre persone tende ad essere scontroso, con qualche ringhio. In passeggiata a guinzaglio è abbastanza sicuro di se, non ha particolari problemi con l’ambiente, viene normalmente gestito con il collarino. Attualmente è abituato a vivere in casa con giardino, libero di entrare ed uscire; abituato a stare a casa da solo, non fa danni. Quanto scritto si riferisce ad una valutazione effettuata nel qui ed ora e da quanto riferito dai proprietari. Adozione ideale: Per Chicco cerchiamo persone con esperienza di cani, disponibili a un percorso di conoscenza con il cane prima dell’adozione, meglio nuclei familiari ristretti in cui la gestione del cane (pappe/uscite) siano divisi equamente. Persone che non si scoraggino davanti a possibili difficoltà, ma che siano disposte a farsi seguire da un professionista in caso di necessità. No bambini piccoli. Da valutare presenza di altro cane meglio se femmina, verrà richiesta la prova di compatibilità caratteriale da effettuarsi in canile in presenza di un operatore. Pur non escludendo l’affido in appartamento, si pensa possa essere più indicata una casetta con un pochino di giardino, con la possibilità per Chicco di entrare ed uscire. Provenienza: La famiglia non riesce più a gestirlo e lo vuole cedere

About Chicco

What life with Chicco looks like

Chicco is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at ENPA Monza e Brianza in Monza.

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 Chicco, answered.

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