Gibble

Unknown · Adult · 4 years

A good dog in need of a home! Gibble, a medium-sized mixed-breed dog, 48 cm at the withers, born in April 2022 and abandoned in the spring of 2024. At first he is a bit uncertain in his relationship with people but after a while, with the right approach, gentle and confident, the veil of shyness is gone and he shows his affectionate and trusting nature. Gets along with other dogs, both males and females. Knows how to walk on a leash, although he needs a bit of exercise and needs a person who can give him clear instructions that give him security. He is located in a private shelter accredited in the province of Rome but we also place him in the north, after the necessary pre-adoption home checks, vaccinated, spayed, tested for leishmaniasis and of course with a microchip. 328 003 45 08 You can also send an SMS or leave a message in the answering service and you will be contacted as soon as possible.

Un cane buono e bisognoso di trovare casa! Gibble, meticcio di taglia media, 48 cm al garrese, nascita presunta aprile 2022 ed abbandonato nella primavera del 2024. All’inizio è un po’ incerto nel rapporto con le persone ma poco dopo, con il giusto approccio, delicato e sicuro, il velo di timidezza viene mandato via così mostra la sua natura affettuosa e confidente. Va d’accordo con gli altri cani, sia maschi sia femmine. Sa andare al guinzaglio, anche se deve fare un po’ di esercizio ed ha bisogno di una persona che sappia dargli indicazioni chiare che gli diano sicurezza. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma lo affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, vaccinato, sterilizzato, testato leishmania e ovviamente con microchip. 328 003 45 08 Potete anche inviare un sms o lasciare un messaggio in segreteria e verrete ricontattati al più presto.

About Gibble

What life with Gibble looks like

Gibble is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gibble, answered.

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