Leone

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

Leone è un cucciolo nato nel 2025, dal carattere molto timoroso. È un cane buono e affettuoso, ma ha bisogno di tempo, pazienza e un approccio delicato per sentirsi sicuro. Al momento non è indicato portarlo fuori, per rispettare i suoi ritmi e farlo sentire a proprio agio. Leone è ideale per chi può dedicargli calma, amore e costanza, costruendo un legame basato sulla fiducia e sul rispetto dei suoi tempi.

About Leone

What life with Leone looks like

Leone is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at UAI Rifugio Animali Abbandonati in Italy.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇮🇹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 Leone, answered.

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