Elaide

German Shepherd · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Elaide, è un meticcio di pastore tedesco, di taglia media nata nel 2012. È entrata nel nostro Rifugio nel 2015 dopo il recupero, da parte del Servizio Veterinario della Asl, in una Frazione di L'Aquila nei pressi di un'azienda agricola. Elaide è ben socializzata, affettuosa e vivace: aspetta una famiglia che la accolga per sempre. È sterilizzata, vaccinata, sverminata e trattata con antiparassitario esterno. Verrà ceduta dopo un controllo preaffido e la compilazione di un verbale di adozione. Vieni a conoscerla nel Rifugio della Lega del Cane di L'Aquila: ti aspettiamo dal lunedì alla domenica, dalle 10.00 alle 12.00. Per info: 329.9064859 - .

About Elaide

What life with Elaide looks like

Elaide is a medium-sized senior german shepherd dog waiting at Lega Nazionale per la Difesa del Cane, Sezione di L in Italy.

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 Elaide, answered.

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