Olimpia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Lara is a delicate soul, a sweet small female dog, kind and smiling, a little Maremmano who would need to live in a house away from the city chaos, surrounded by the love of a real family. She really needs very little to smile and be happy, there is a treasure inside her. Call to meet her and adopt her! Story The gentle Lara has always been in a dog shelter. From us she started to learn about collar, leash and walking. She is shy at first but now approaches people without fear. She is very nice with her paws a bit shorter than normal. Otherwise she looks like a Maremmano. Lara is at the animal shelter in the province of Caserta and to foster her, vaccinated, microchipped and spayed, you need to meet her to help her not be afraid and trust people.

About Olimpia

What life with Olimpia looks like

Olimpia 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Olimpia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Olimpia?
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 Olimpia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Olimpia 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 Olimpia 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 Olimpia 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 Olimpia 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.
