Adopt PIPPO

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

And who loves setters, or simply gentle, friendly, tireless, and intelligent dogs, will surely find our PIPPO splendid! Born in April 2024, Pippo is leishmaniasis-negative and a bit shy at first meeting, but he throws himself into your arms the moment you whisper a couple of soft words in his ears. He is compatible with other dogs; we're not sure about cats, but he seems disinterested; found motionless on a highway, broken... 😫 but we are certain he won't stay in a cage for long! 😩 To meet him:

Read original (it)

E chi ama i setter, o semplicemente i cani docili, amichevoli, instancabili e intelligenti, senz’altro troverà splendido il nostro PIPPO! Nato nell’aprile del 2024, negativo alla leishmania, Pippo è un cane un po’ timido al primo incontro, che però si butta letteralmente tra le tue braccia, non appena gli sussurri due paroline nelle orecchie. Compatibile con gli altri cani, non sappiamo con certezza con i gatti, anche se pare disinteressato; rinvenuto su uno stradone immobile, distrutto…😫 siamo però certi che non resterà in un box a lungo! 🤩 Per conoscerlo: ENPA Torino, Via germagnano 8, dal lun al sab h13-16

About PIPPO

What life with PIPPO looks like

PIPPO is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ENPA Sezione Torino in Torino.

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 PIPPO, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about PIPPO?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ENPA Sezione Torino handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw PIPPO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt PIPPO if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ENPA Sezione Torino 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 PIPPO 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 PIPPO 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 ENPA Sezione Torino early rather than rehoming privately; they know PIPPO 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.
