Remo

Male · Senior · 9 years

REMO – dog shelter in Calderara di Reno (BO) BREED: mixed-breed dog GENDER: MALE SIZE: MEDIUM ESTIMATED BIRTH DATE: 13/01/2017 Remo is the classic dog "I would like to but I can't": a timid dog who would like to let go and is just waiting for the right people to do so. 🤗 Remo is a dog that needs time to get to know you but once he does, he melts like a pat of butter. Entered the dog shelter as a puppy with his siblings, Remo has remained the only one not adopted due to a series of unfortunate events. 😔 🏡 An extra-urban environment would be preferable for him, but other contexts are also considered. 🐶 NOT an only child, he needs the presence of another dog. We are looking for someone patient, who is willing to get involved and undertake a getting-to-know-you process at the dog shelter; outdoor and home tests will be conducted with the help of our experienced trainers.

REMO – Canile a Calderara di Reno (BO) RAZZA: METICCIO SESSO: MASCHIO TAGLIA: MEDIA DATA DI NASCITA PRESUNTA: 13/01/2017 Remo è il classico cane “vorrei ma non posso”: un timidone che vorrebbe lasciarsi andare e che aspetta solo le persone giuste per poterlo fare. 🤗 Remo è un cane che ha bisogno di tempo per imparare a conoscervi ma quando lo fa si scioglie come un panetto di burro. Entrato in canile da cucciolo insieme ai suoi fratelli, Remo è rimasto l’unico non adottato per una serie di sfortunati eventi. 😔 🏡 Per lui sarebbe preferibile un ambiente extra-urbano ma si valutano anche altri contesti. 🐶 NO figlio unico, necessita della presenza di altro cane. Cerchiamo qualcuno paziente, che abbia voglia di mettersi in gioco e di intraprendere un percorso conoscitivo in canile; verranno fatte prove in esterna ed in casa con l’aiuto dei nostri educatori esperti.

About Remo

What life with Remo looks like

Remo is a medium-sized senior dog waiting at Fuori Le Zampe ODV in Bologna.

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 Remo, answered.

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