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 ora sono da una volontaria in Calabria. La volontaria ha però altri cani e non posso restare con lei per sempre. 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 o anche uno stallo che mi permetta di iniziare una nuova vita, circondata da attenzioni e serenità. Mi trovo in Calabria, ma per una buona adozione posso raggiungere il centro e nord Italia tramite staffetta.

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.

An 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 chipped and sterilized before leaving (Legge 281/91). Public canili rifugio typically waive adoption fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nikita, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nikita?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this 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?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — I Pelosetti di Silvana 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 Nikita 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 Nikita 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 I Pelosetti di Silvana 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
