Daniella

Unknown · Senior · 10 years

It would be wonderful to fulfill her desire for a home! Daniella, a molosser, medium size, born in April 2016, abandoned in 2018, spends all her days alone in a stall. She no longer seeks much interaction with people, as if she has resigned herself to living in her world of cold winters and hot summers without affection or external stimuli. She does not get along with other dogs. She suffers so much from being confined in the stall that she licks her paws until she hurts herself, and her body has many signs of dermatitis. She is in a private dog shelter affiliated in the province of Rome but we also entrust her to the north, after the necessary pre-adoption home checks, spayed, vaccinated, tested for leishmaniasis and obviously with a microchip. Do a good deed, ask us about Daniella!

IT·Show original

Sarebbe bellissimo esaudire il suo desiderio di casa! Daniella, derivato molosso, taglia media, nascita presunta aprile 2016, abbandonata nel 2018, trascorre le sue giornate tutte uguali in un box da sola. Non cerca più tanto l’interazione con le persone come se si fosse rassegnata a vivere nel suo mondo fatto di freddo d’inverno e di caldo d’estate senza affetto, senza stimoli esterni. Non va d’accordo con gli altri cani. Soffre così tanto la reclusione in box tanto che si lecca le zampe fino a ferirsi e il suo corpo ha molti segni di dermatite. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma la affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, sterilizzata, vaccinata, testata leishmania e ovviamente con microchip. Fai una buona azione, chiedici di Daniella!

About Daniella

What life with Daniella looks like

Daniella is a medium-sized senior dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

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 Daniella, answered.

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