Nikita

Husky · Female · Young · 2 years

Sweet, good, affectionate. People, children, dogs, cats. Hello everyone, let me introduce myself: my name is Nikita, I am a Husky puppy born in early October 2024. I am currently undergoing therapy for some epileptic seizures and after being in a veterinary clinic, I am now with a volunteer in Calabria. However, the volunteer has other dogs and I cannot stay with her forever. It's a situation to monitor, but it could be a temporary condition. I am a small female dog who is calm, very sweet, and very sociable with people. I am also good with other dogs, both males and females. I am sociable with cats as well. I need someone who has patience, love, and the desire to take care of me, accompanying me in my growth and possible therapy. I urgently seek an adoption or even a foster home that will allow me to start a new life, surrounded by attention and peace. I am in Calabria, but for a good adoption I can reach central and northern Italy via shuttle.

Dolce, buona, coccolona Persone, bambini, cani, gatti Ciao a tutti, mi presento: mi chiamo Nikita, sono una cucciola di Husky nata i primi di Ottobre del 2024. Al momento sto seguendo una terapia per alcune crisi epilettiche e dopo essere stata in una clinica veterinaria, sono stata da una volontaria in Calabria. La volontaria ha però altri cani e sono riuscita a trovare uno stallo in Lombardia, vicino a Bergamo. La mia è una situazione da monitorare, ma potrebbe trattarsi di una condizione temporanea. Sono una cagnolina tranquilla, dolcissima e molto socievole con le persone. Sono buona anche con gli altri cani, sia maschi che femmine. Socievole anche con i gatti. Ho bisogno di qualcuno che abbia pazienza, amore e voglia di prendersi cura di me, accompagnandomi nella crescita e nella mia eventuale terapia. Cerco con urgenza un’adozione che mi permetta di iniziare una nuova vita, circondata da attenzioni e serenità. Mi trovo in Lombardia, ma per una buona adozione posso raggiungere il centro e nord Italia.

About Nikita

What life with Nikita looks like

Nikita is a medium-sized young adult husky dog waiting at I Pelosetti di Silvana in Italy.

A 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 often microchipped and sterilized before leaving, but confirm with the shelter. Some public canili rifugio waive adoption fees, so ask the shelter about fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nikita, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nikita?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. I Pelosetti di Silvana handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nikita on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nikita if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask I Pelosetti di Silvana whether they will for Nikita, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Nikita already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Nikita. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by I Pelosetti di Silvana, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Nikita isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask I Pelosetti di Silvana about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nikita 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.
