Milly

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Spyke and Milly, two brothers around 4 years old, entered the municipal shelter at two months old. They have always lived together in a cramped and cold box without contact with people. We are looking for a heart adoption for them, from people who are patient and welcoming. We are working with our dog trainers so they can start trusting people and we are slowly seeing small steps forward. They are sterilized, tested negative to leishmaniasis, and vaccinated.

Spyke e Milly, due fratelli di circa 4 anni entrati nel canile comunale a due mesi. Hanno sempre vissuto insieme in un angusto e freddo box senza contatto con persone. Per loro cerchiamo un’adozione del cuore, delle persone che siano pazienti e accoglienti. Stiamo lavorando insieme ai nostri educatori cinofili affinchè possano iniziare a fidarsi delle persone e piano piano stiamo vedendo dei piccoli passi avanti. Sono sterilizzati, testati e negativi alla leishmaniosi e vaccinati.

About Milly

What life with Milly looks like

Milly is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at A.S.P.A. Onlus in Italy.

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 Milly, answered.

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