How do I contact the shelter about COTONE?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Adottami col Cuore handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw COTONE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt COTONE if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Adottami col Cuore 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 COTONE 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 COTONE 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 Adottami col Cuore early rather than rehoming privately; they know COTONE 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.

COTONE

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 16 years

We named him COTONE, this beautiful and soft puppy, born in 2010. He lived until recently in a concentration camp-style shelter in Puglia that recently closed. Taken out of that neglectful situation, we placed him in a boarding facility in the province of Rimini, and we are urgently looking for a home for him to finally have a happy life. He is very sweet but also stubborn; he knows what he wants and if he doesn't want to do something, you can't convince him, but he is incredibly affectionate. He is a medium-large breed. We recommend adoption by families without children and a house with a garden. He is given up spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested for leishmania and ehrlichia. Responsible adoption, only for adults, requires a questionnaire and pre-adoption check. For information: ADOTTAMI COL CUORE – ODV 3496403337 – 3496325688.

Lo abbiamo chiamato COTONE, questo bellissimo e morbido cucciolone, nato nel 2010. Ha vissuto fino a poco tempo fa in un canile lager in Puglia che ha chiuso di recente. Strappato a quella situazione di incuria, lo abbiamo messo in una pensione in provincia di Rimini e cerchiamo per lui urgentemente una casa per fargli avere finalmente una vita felice. E’ molto dolce ma anche testardo, è un cane che sa quel che vuole e se non vuole fare una cosa non lo si convince, ma è di una tenerezza incredibile. Si tratta di una taglia medio grande. Consigliamo adozione con famiglie senza bambini e casa con giardino. Viene affidato sterilizzato, vaccinato, microchippato evcon test leishmania e erlichia. Adozione responsabile, solo maggiorenni, richiesti questionario conoscitivo e controllo pre-affido. Per info: ADOTTAMI COL CUORE – ODV 3496403337 – 3496325688

About COTONE

What life with COTONE looks like

COTONE is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Adottami col Cuore in Andria (BAT).

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.
