Adopt POLDO

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Announcement of 10/3/2025 Male, 9 years old, small size, very sweet and always looking for cuddles, gets along with other dogs. Hello everyone, my name is POLDO, a lovely small dog looking for a loving family to welcome me forever! I love cuddles and am always looking for affection. I get along with other dogs and am ready to make new four-legged friends. Due to his past, he does not tolerate the leash, and therefore a house with a garden is necessary, but I remain a loving small dog, waiting for a second chance to be happy. I'm looking for a family that will fill me with love and help me forget the past. With the right amount of affection and patience, I'm sure I can bloom again and become the ideal companion. FOR INFORMATION AND ADOPTION CALL US AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT!

About POLDO

What life with POLDO looks like

POLDO is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Casa del Cane Vagabondo in Italy.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇮🇹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 POLDO, answered.

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