Kisca

Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Tiny, sweet, and with a great need for love… Kisca is waiting for someone who will choose her! Kisca is a mini mixed-breed, weighing about 5 kg and was presumably born in 2017. A tender and clingy small female dog, one that seeks human contact and just wants to feel finally part of a family. She is docile, playful, and gets along well with other dogs. Despite her sweetness, today she finds herself in a dog shelter, where her days pass with silent hopes and the desire for just a little more affection. For a small, affectionate female dog like Kisca, a kennel is particularly inconceivable. Kisca still has a great desire to love and be loved: she follows people with her hopeful eyes, seeking closeness, attention, and security. She would be the perfect companion for someone who desires a loyal, present, and tender small female dog. For her, we seek a special family that can give her the serenity and stability that every dog deserves. A warm home, peaceful walks, a couch to snuggle on, and someone to love every day. After everything she has lived through, Kisca deserves a real life: one filled with affection, protection, and happiness. She is in a private, conventionally operated dog shelter in the province of Rome but we can also place her in the north after the necessary pre-adoption home checks, sterilization, vaccination, leishmaniasis testing, and of course with a microchip.

Piccola, dolcissima e con un grande bisogno di amore… Kisca aspetta qualcuno che scelga proprio lei! Kisca è una meticcetta di taglia mini, pesa circa 5 kg ed è nata presumibilmente nel 2017. Una cagnolina tenera e appiccicosa, di quelle che cercano il contatto umano e che vorrebbero solo sentirsi finalmente parte di una famiglia. È docile, giocosa e va d’accordo con gli altri cani. Nonostante la sua dolcezza, oggi si trova in canile, dove le giornate scorrono tutte uguali tra attese silenziose e il desiderio di una carezza in più. Per una cagnolina così piccola e affettuosa, il box è particolarmente inconcepibile. Kisca ha ancora tanta voglia di amare e lasciarsi amare: segue le persone con i suoi occhietti pieni di speranza, cerca vicinanza, attenzioni e sicurezza. Sarebbe la compagna perfetta per chi desidera una cagnolina fedele, presente e piena di tenerezza. Per lei cerchiamo una famiglia speciale, capace di regalarle quella serenità e quella stabilità che ogni cane merita. Una casa calda, passeggiate tranquille, un divano su cui accoccolarsi e qualcuno da amare ogni giorno. Dopo tutto quello che ha vissuto, Kisca merita finalmente una vita vera: fatta di affetto, protezione e felicità. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma la affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, sterilizzata, vaccinata, testata leishmania e ovviamente con microchip.

About Kisca

What life with Kisca looks like

Kisca is a very small senior dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇮🇹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 Kisca, answered.

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