How do I contact the shelter about Enrico?

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 Enrico on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Enrico 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 Enrico 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 Enrico 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 Enrico 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.

Enrico

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Enrico is a docile and sociable dog with people, appreciating their company without being intrusive. He is used to wearing a harness and is good on a leash during walks, although he sometimes tends to sit or lie down for short breaks. A suitable adoption for Enrico could be a family with little to no experience with dogs. However, it should be noted that despite his labrador-like appearance, he may have some characteristics of a guardian dog, so it's possible he may exhibit some guarding behavior at home. He is okay with well-behaved children who treat animals with respect. He thrives in quiet family and living environments. Compatibility with other dogs can be assessed in a shelter with the help of an operator. He can live in an apartment, but a house with a garden would be ideal.

IT·Show original

Generalità: Microchipato e vaccinato. Meticcio possibile incrocio labrador e pastore guardiano, Pelo corto bianco crema. Al momento non è sterilizzato, verrà fatto prima dell’affido Carattere: Enrico è un cane docile e socievole con le persone, apprezza la loro compagnia senza essere invadente. Abituato ad indossare la pettorina, in passeggiata a guinzaglio è bravo anche se ogni tanto tende a sedersi o sdraiarsi per delle piccole pause Adozione ideale: Per Enrico potrebbe essere indicata anche una famiglia alla prima esperienza con i cani. Si sottolinea però che pur assomigliando molto ad un labrador, come aspetto, potrebbe avere delle caratteristiche caratteriali del pastore guardiano, quindi non si esclude che a casa possa fare un po’ di guardia. Ok con ragazzini ben educati nei confronti degli animali. Bene contesti famigliari ed abitativi tranquilli. Possibile in presenza di altri cani previa prova di compatibilità caratteriale da effettuarsi in canile in presenza di un operatore. Non si esclude l’appartamento anche se sarebbe meglio una casa con giardino dandogli la possydi vivere anche in casa Provenienza: Accalappiato

About Enrico

What life with Enrico looks like

Enrico is a medium-sized 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.
