Adopt Oriana

Female · Young · 1 year

Good, sweet, lively People, kids, dogs, and cats Hello everyone! My name is Oriana, I am a sweet small female dog similar to a spinone, born around December 2025. At the moment, I weigh 10 kg but my ideal weight would be 15 kg, a medium-sized contained size. I am a affectionate, good, and prudent small female dog. Unfortunately, my story is very sad. I was found, with my brother, on a dusty street in Calabria, I was malnourished and injured, I didn't have the strength to move. Fortunately, someone noticed us and gave us the chance to have a new life. I am looking for a family that truly loves me and won't ever leave me alone. A family with whom to share walks, cuddles, and many happy moments. I am looking for an adoption or even a foster home to finally start a new life full of love. I am in Calabria, but I can reach the center and north of Italy, dewormed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Buona, dolce, vivace Persone, bambini, cani e gatti Ciao a tutti! Mi presento: mi chiamo Oriana, sono una dolcissima cagnolina simil spinone nata indicativamente a dicembre 2025. Al momento peso 10 kg ma il mio peso ideale sarebbe 15 kg, una taglia medio contenuta. Sono una cagnolina affettuosa, buona e prudente. Purtroppo la mia storia è molto triste. Sono stata trovata, con il mio fratellino, in una strada polverosa della Calabria, ero malnutrita e ferita, non avevo le forze per muovermi. Fortunatamente una persona si è accorta di noi e ci ha dato la possibilità di avere una nuova vita. Cerco una famiglia che mi ami davvero e che non mi lasci mai più sola. Una famiglia con cui condividere passeggiate, coccole e tanti momenti felici. Cerco un’adozione o anche uno stallo per iniziare finalmente una nuova vita piena d’amore. Mi trovo in Calabria, ma posso raggiungere il centro e nord Italia, sverminato, vaccinato e con microchip.

About Oriana

What life with Oriana looks like

Oriana is a small young adult 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 Oriana, answered.

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