He is a special small dog, full of desire to trust, love, and live a peaceful life. Now he just needs someone who knows how to look beyond his insecurities and is willing to build a bond with him based on patience, kindness, and respect. Ringo is waiting for you.

Arrivato dal Sud insieme a suo fratello, Ringo è un cucciolone dolcissimo che sogna di conoscere, finalmente, l’amore di una vera famiglia. Nei suoi primi mesi di vita ha avuto poche esperienze, e questo lo ha reso un po’ timido con il mondo. Ma grazie al lavoro costante di educatori e volontari, Ringo sta facendo grandi progressi e si sta aprendo ogni giorno un po’ di più. È un cagnolino speciale, con tanta voglia di fidarsi, amare e vivere una vita serena. Ora ha solo bisogno di qualcuno che sappia guardare oltre le sue insicurezze e abbia voglia di costruire con lui un legame fatto di pazienza, dolcezza e rispetto. Ringo aspetta te. Sarai tu la sua occasione? ❤️ RINGO – Canile a Calderara di Reno (BO) DATA DI NASCITA: 01/04/2024 TAGLIA: MEDIA SESSO: MASCHIO NON CASTRATO RAZZA: METICCIO 📸 Ringraziamo il Circolo Fotografico Calderarese per questi bellissimi scatti

About Ringo

What life with Ringo looks like

Ringo is a young adult dog waiting at Fuori Le Zampe ODV in Bologna.

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 Ringo, answered.

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