Punto

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Punto is a young, kind and energetic Rottweiler. He loves taking nice walks in nature, in quiet environments, with few stimuli. This is because Punto seems to have missed many experiences and is therefore reactive to dogs, bikes and people. He likes to play with balls and tug-of-war but needs to be handled carefully because he has high possessiveness. We are looking for a responsible family, not first-time owners, that will give him all the experiences he has missed. We recommend an educational program. No other dogs, no children. Microchipped and vaccinated. Breeding is prohibited.

IT·Show original

Punto è un Rottweiler giovane, buono e vitale. Ama fare delle belle passeggiate nella natura, in contesti tranquilli, con pochi stimoli. Questo perchè a Punto sembra siano mancate molte esperienze ed è quindi reattivo a cani, bici e persone. Ama giocare con palline e tira e molla ma va gestito con attenzione perchè ha un'alta possessività. Cerchiamo per lui una famiglia consapevole, non alle prime esperienze, che faccia vivere a punto tutte le esperienze che gli sono mancate. Consigliamo un percorso educativo. No altri cani, no bambini. Chippato e vaccinato. Obbligo di non riproduzione.

About Punto

What life with Punto looks like

Punto is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Canile Rifugio di Brescia in Brescia.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Punto, answered.

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