Miele

Golden Retriever · Male · Young · 3 years

Hello everyone! 🐾 Let me introduce myself: my name is Miele, I’m an adorable Golden Retriever/Maremmano mix born in September 2023. I’m medium‑sized, weighing just 20 kg, and on the smaller side. My life didn’t start well: I spent an entire summer wandering through the village streets under the sun, with no one caring for me. I was completely exhausted when volunteers finally managed—after many attempts—to catch me and bring me to safety. Today I’m a very loving dog and I’ve finally learned to trust people. I adore cuddles, physical contact and being close to humans. I’m also very gentle with children, and I get along well with both dogs and cats. I walk nicely on the leash and I’m ready to discover life alongside a family. I’m looking for a loving home that will help me forget that summer spent on the streets. I’m currently in Italy, but I can travel across Europe and the United Kingdom within two to three weeks for a good adoption. If you’d like to give me a chance, I’m here waiting for you. 🐶 👉 I am vaccinated and negative for Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Dirofilaria, Brucellosis and Leishmania. 👉 Adoption only with a protection contract, adoption fee and home check (RBU included). 📝 Foster/adoption form: 📞 🇮🇹 Chiara (WhatsApp) – 🇬🇧 Chiara (WhatsApp only) – 🇩🇪 Sabrina (WhatsApp)

About Miele

What life with Miele looks like

Miele is a medium-sized young adult golden retriever dog waiting at Furry Rescue Italy in Nazionale.

An young 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 Miele, answered.

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