Kira

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Generalities: microchipped and vaccinated, a light red American Staffordshire Terrier. Temperament: Kira seems to be a gentle dog towards people, even those she doesn't know, especially if approached correctly. Accustomed to wearing a collar, on walks tends to pull, but probably because she doesn't have enough satisfying outings, nevertheless manageable with a minimum of physical strength. The above refers to a behavioral assessment conducted here and now and from the information provided by the owners. Ideal adoption: For Kira we are looking for people with some experience of the breed, who have the certificate or are willing to get one. Who do not leave her alone at home for too many hours, and who gradually accustom her, who know how to give her some rules, who make her do the necessary activity so that she is satisfied. No other animals, no children. Apartment or villa with garden living at home and ensuring her daily walks necessary for her psychophysical well-being. background:

Generalità: Microchippata e vaccinata, amstaff color fulvo chiaro. Carattere: Kira sembra essere un cane docile nei confronti delle persone, anche con quelle che non consce, soprattutto se ci si approccia nel modo corretto. Abituata ad indossare il collare, in passeggiata tende a tirare, ma probabilmente perchè non fa uscite abbastanza appaganti, comunque gestibile con un minimo di forza fisica. Quanto riportato si riferisce ad una valutazione comportamentale effettuata nel qui ed ora e dalle informazioni fornite dai proprietari. Adozione ideale: Per Kira cerchiamo persone con un po’ di esperienza della razza, cha abbiano il patentino o che siano disposti a farlo. Che non la lascino a casa sola troppe ore, e che l’abituino con la dovuta gradualità, che sappiano darle qualche regola, che le facciano fare la dovuta attività per fare in modo che sia appagata. No altri animali, no bambini. Appartamento o villetta con giardino vivendo in casa e garantendole le dovute passeggiate giornaliere necessarie per il suo benessere psicofisico. Provenienza: La famiglia non ha più tempo per occuparsi di lei

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira 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 Kira, answered.

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