IGGY

Male · Adult · 5 years

Timid with people, he needs time and patience to trust. Sociable with his peers, it would be better for him a home where there is already a dog with whom to establish a strong bond and thus acquire correct attitudes of trust with the owner and the domestic environment. If there is a garden, it must be escape-proof as he has proven to be a good jumper. Requires experienced people.

IT·Show original

Timoroso con le persone, ha bisogno di tempo e pazienza per fidarsi. Socievole con i suoi simili, sarebbe meglio per lui una casa dove sia già presente un cane con cui instaurare un forte legame e acquisire così atteggiamenti corretti di fiducia con il proprietario e l’ambiente domestico.Se fosse presente un giardino, dovrà essere a prova di fuga in quanto si è dimostrato un buon saltatore. Richiede persone esperte.

About IGGY

What life with IGGY looks like

IGGY is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at ENPA Verona in Verona.

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 IGGY, answered.

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