Daverik

Unknown · Young · 1 year

He is Daverik, a large breed dog born in June 2025, and there are dogs that manage to stand out right away for how special they are… he is one of them. He is a friendly dog, very confident, and deeply in search of human contact. He seeks out people, interactions, and someone to guide him. He has a huge need to feel welcomed and part of something. In new situations, he remains calm and has a rare balance for a dog so young. Even when he is afraid or feels insecure, he never loses his trust in people. He gets along well with other dogs and knows how to go on a leash. Daverik doesn’t just wait for a home: he waits for his reference point, his family. He is currently in a private, conventionally accredited dog shelter in the province of Rome but we can also place him in the north after the necessary pre-adoption home checks. He is neutered, vaccinated, tested for leishmaniasis, has a health file, and of course, a microchip.

Lui è Daverik, un giovane cane di taglia grande nato a giugno del 2025, e ci sono cani che riescono a farsi notare subito per quanto sono speciali… lui è uno di quelli. È un cane socievole, molto confidente e profondamente alla ricerca del contatto umano. Cerca le persone, le interazioni, una guida da seguire. Ha un bisogno enorme di sentirsi accolto e parte di qualcosa. Nelle situazioni nuove rimane tranquillo e con un equilibrio davvero raro per un cane così giovane. Anche quando ha paura o si sente insicuro non perde mai la fiducia nelle persone. Va d’accordo con gli altri cani e sa andare al guinzaglio. Daverik non aspetta solo una casa: aspetta il suo punto di riferimento, la sua famiglia. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma lo affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, sterilizzato, vaccinato, testato leishmania. con cartella sanitaria e ovviamente con microchip.

About Daverik

What life with Daverik looks like

Daverik is a large young adult dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Daverik, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Daverik?
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 Daverik on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Daverik 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 Daverik 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 Daverik 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 Daverik 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.
