Hey

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Hey is a dynamic and active Amstaff with a beautiful white coat speckled with black. He is currently not spayed/neutered and will be before adoption. Hey is a bit rough around the edges when interacting with people, sometimes jumping up to play, but we are confident that with some effort and time he will learn to interact more gently. He enjoys playing with balls and seems to enjoy this activity. He can easily wear a harness and does not seem to have any issues with a leash in a familiar environment. He will soon learn to wear a muzzle, which may be useful in some management situations. Ideal adoption: Suitable for experienced dog owners who understand the breed's characteristics and are willing to dedicate time to getting to know him both at the shelter and at home, possibly with a professional if needed. Suitable for active people who can provide him with the right amount of exercise. Not recommended for very young children as he may accidentally knock them over. A compatible female dog may be considered in some cases, with a compatibility test required at the shelter. Apartment or house with a garden, living with the family and ensuring the necessary daily walks for his physical and mental well-being.

IT·Show original

Generalità: Microchippato e vaccinato, Amstaff dal bellissimo manto bianco macchiato di nero. Al momento non è sterilizzato, verrà fatto prima dell’affido Carattere: Hey è un cane dinamico e attivo, nei confronti delle persone ha approcci un po’ irruenti, saltando a volte addosso per interagire, per il momento conosce poco il “bon ton”, ma siamo certi che con un po’ di impegno e dandogli tempo imparerà ad interagire con più “delicatezza”. Sa giocare con le palline e sembra che sia un tipo di attività che gli piace. Sa tranquillamente indossare la pettorina e a guinzaglio non sembra avere particolari problemi con l’ambiente, prossimamente imparerà anche ad indossare la museruola, strumento che potrebbe essere utile in alcune occasioni di gestione. Adozione ideale: Bene per persone con esperienza di cani, che conoscano le caratteristiche di razza, che abbiano voglia di dedicargli tempo sia per qualche incontro conoscitivo in canile sia per lavorarci a casa, eventualmente con un professionista, qualora che ne fosse la necessità. Bene per persone attive che gli permettano di fare il giusto movimento. Meglio no bambini troppo piccoli in quanto essendo un po’ “bozzo” potrebbe inavvertitamente farli cadere. Non si esclude l’affido in presenza di un cane femmina ben competente, da valutare a seconda del caso, verrà richiesta la prova di compatibilità caratteriale da effettuarsi in canile in presenza di un operatore. Appartamento o villetta con giardino vivendo in casa con la famiglia e garantendo le dovute passeggiate giornaliere necessarie per il suo benessere psicofisico. Provenienza: Ceduto

About Hey

What life with Hey looks like

Hey 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hey, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hey?: 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 Hey on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hey 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Hey 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 Hey 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 Hey 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.
