MORK

Male · Puppy · 7 months

Mork is Mindy's brother. Like her, he is a young Maremmano with the potential for a large size, but his journey is even more complex. He is very fearful and we still can't touch him. With other dogs, however, it's a different story: their presence reassures him and helps him face his fears. For this reason, it would be essential for him to find a family that already has a balanced and sociable dog, capable of guiding him and showing him that people can be trusted. He needs experienced, patient, and respectful people who can accept that his journey will be long and made up of small steps.

IT·Show original

Mork è il fratello di Mindy. Come lei è un giovane simil Maremmano di futura taglia grande, ma il suo percorso è ancora più complesso. È molto timoroso e ancora non riusciamo a toccarlo. Con gli altri cani, invece, è tutta un'altra storia: la loro presenza lo rassicura e lo aiuta ad affrontare ciò che gli fa paura. Per questo motivo per lui sarebbe fondamentale una famiglia che abbia già un cane equilibrato e socievole, capace di guidarlo e di mostrargli che delle persone ci si può fidare. Ha bisogno di persone esperte, pazienti e rispettose, capaci di accettare che il suo percorso sarà lungo e fatto di piccoli passi.

About MORK

What life with MORK looks like

MORK is a large puppy/kitten dog waiting at ENPA Verona in Verona.

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 MORK, answered.

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