LUCKY

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 10 years

Magnificent mixed-breed dog, born in 2016. He arrived at the shelter a few years ago and has never been chosen, perhaps because of his initial shyness which, once overcome, gives way to great sweetness and a need for affection. Lucky is a very affectionate dog with us volunteers, and he gets along well with the other dogs too. He shares the

Splendido meticcio, classe 2016. Arrivato in canile qualche anno fa e mai scelto forse per la sua timidezza iniziale che, una volta superata, lascia il posto a tanta dolcezza e bisogno di contatto.

About LUCKY

What life with LUCKY looks like

LUCKY is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Lega del Cane Foligno in Italy.

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 LUCKY, answered.

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