ESTHER

Female · Adult · 4 years

Ma chi abbiamo qui? Un’altra palla di ciccia, la dolcissima ESTHER è entrata a 4 mesi in canile nel LAZIO ed anche per lei la porta da allora è rimasta sempre chiusa. Nella nostra positività, siamo certi di trovare una casa anche per lei, che da 4 anni attente di vedere il cielo e poter smettere di annoiarsi. Loro non hanno le parole crociate né la televisione, ammazzare il tempo è un supplizio. Inoltre ci sono altri 200 cani lì e l’abbaio è continuo, Non parliamo poi dell’odore che sono obbligati a sentire h24. Liberiamo ESTHER, regaliamole giornate felici, belle passeggiate, programma dietetico di RIGORE per far sì che non diventi più larga che lunga. ESTHER è molto carina e gentile, non ha problemi con gli altri cani ed attende da tanti anni una carezza amica, una parola di amore. I suoi occhi sono tristi e gentili, perché questo Mondo è cosi ingiusto? ESTHER ti libereremo! Per richieste p.f. mandare whatsapp 079.2200057 o telefonare. Grazie

About ESTHER

What life with ESTHER looks like

ESTHER is a adult dog waiting at Via di Fuga – Associazione Adozione Cani in Lugano (TI).

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting ESTHER, answered.

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