How do I contact the shelter about Moreno?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Rifugio San Francesco handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Moreno on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Moreno if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Rifugio San Francesco 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 Moreno 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 Moreno 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 Rifugio San Francesco early rather than rehoming privately; they know Moreno 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.

Moreno

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Look into Moreno's eyes: a little bundle of just 6.5 pounds, born on April 1st, 2022. His story is a mix of tenderness and misfortune, but his spirit is pure joy. When he was just a helpless puppy, a small accident marked his life: his little brother fell on him, leaving him with a slight tilt to his head. This small flaw, however, in no way affects his sweetness. Moreno is a lovely small dog, very tender, a concentrated dose of love and cuddles waiting only to be poured onto whoever will welcome him. Imagine his celebrations when you come home, his gentle caresses, his gaze seeking only affection. Moreno doesn't ask for much, just a safe place to rest his little head, a pair of hands that caress him and a heart that loves him forever. He will be given in Campania already microchipped, vaccinated and spayed, ready to start a new life by your side. Don't let his small imperfection hold you back. On the contrary, let it be what pushes you to meet him, to discover the depth of his affection. Give Moreno the chance to live the life he deserves, full of love and happiness.

IT·Show original

Guardate gli occhi di Moreno: un batuffolino di appena sei chili e mezzo, nato il 1° aprile 2022. La sua storia è un misto di tenerezza e sfortuna, ma il suo spirito è pura gioia. Quando era solo un cucciolo indifeso, un piccolo incidente ha segnato la sua vita: il suo fratellino gli è caduto addosso, lasciandogli una leggera inclinazione alla testa. Questo piccolo difetto, però, non scalfisce minimamente la sua dolcezza. Moreno è un cagnolino adorabile, tenerissimo, un concentrato di amore e coccole che aspetta solo di essere riversato su chi saprà accoglierlo. Immaginate le sue feste quando tornerete a casa, le sue carezze discrete, il suo sguardo che cerca solo affetto. Moreno non chiede molto, solo un luogo sicuro dove appoggiare la sua testolina, un paio di mani che lo accarezzino e un cuore che lo ami per sempre. Verrà affidato in Campania già chippato, vaccinato e sterilizzato, pronto per iniziare una nuova vita al vostro fianco. Non lasciate che la sua piccola imperfezione vi freni. Anzi, che sia proprio quella a spingervi a conoscerlo, a scoprire la profondità del suo affetto. Date a Moreno la possibilità di vivere la vita che merita, piena di amore e felicità.

About Moreno

What life with Moreno looks like

Moreno is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio San Francesco 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.
