How do I contact the shelter about Nemy?

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

Can I adopt Nemy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Associazione ALFA 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 Nemy 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 Nemy 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 Associazione ALFA early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nemy 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.

Nemy

Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Love at first sight: we’re looking for a home for little Nemy! Just look at those sweet little eyes—she’s Nemy, a gorgeous little dog born this past March. Nemy is one of five puppies born to a mother who recently arrived at the shelter. Unfortunately, their mother tested positive for leishmaniasis, but the puppies are determined to make their mark and look forward to a bright future filled with love. Nemy is an absolutely wonderful puppy: at first, she’s a bit shy—a trait that only makes her even more endearing—but it doesn’t take much at all for her to gain confidence, thaw out, and reveal all her sweetness. As she grows, she’ll become medium-to-large in size. She has her whole life ahead of her and an immense need for a family that will guide her and love her forever. Let’s not let her spend her life behind bars! She’s currently staying at a private, affiliated kennel in the province of Rome, but we’re also willing to place her in the north, after completing the necessary pre-adoption checks, providing a complete health record that includes deworming treatments, vaccinations, and, of course, microchipping.

Amore a prima vista: cerchiamo casa per la piccola Nemy! Guardate questi occhietti dolci: lei è Nemy, una splendida cagnolina nata a marzo di quest’anno. Nemy fa parte di una cucciolata di cinque piccoli nati da una mamma entrata in rifugio da pochissimo tempo. Purtroppo, la loro mamma è risultata positiva alla leishmania, ma i cuccioli cercano il loro riscatto e un futuro radioso pieno d’amore. Nemy è una cucciola buonissima: inizialmente si mostra un pochino timida, un tratto che la rende ancora più tenera, ma le basta davvero poco per acquistare sicurezza, sciogliersi e mostrare tutta la sua dolcezza. Crescendo diventerà una taglia medio-grande. Ha tutta la vita davanti e un immenso bisogno di una famiglia che la guidi e la ami per sempre. Non lasciamo che cresca dietro le sbarre! Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma, ma la affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, con cartella sanitaria comprendente le sverminazioni, vaccinazioni e ovviamente con microchip.

About Nemy

What life with Nemy looks like

Nemy is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

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.
