Sadye

Unknown · Young · 2 years

A small female dog, wonderful and kind, who really wants to go home soon! Sadye is a medium-sized mixed breed, born in October 2024 and abandoned as a few weeks old along with her sisters and brothers without a mother. Her life started in a traumatic way, marked by ignorance and cruelty, but despite this, Sadye shows a fantastic character, remaining trusting and confident towards humans, she is gentle and affectionate and is looking for contact. We are looking for patient and kind people, willing to dedicate time and attention to her. Adopting Sadye means giving a second chance to an unprotected creature that has so much to offer, not letting her grow and age in a dog shelter, offering her a happy future and a home where she can feel loved and protected. She is located in a private affiliated dog shelter in the province of Rome but we also place her in the north, after the proper pre-adoption home check, spayed, vaccinated, tested for leishmaniasis and obviously with a microchip.

Una cagnolina meravigliosa e buona che desidera tanto andare presto a casa! Sadye è un meticcetta di taglia media, nata a ottobre 2024 ed abbandonata a poche settimane di vita insieme alle sue sorelline e fratellini senza mamma. La sua vita è iniziata in modo traumatico, segnata dall’ignoranza e cattiveria, ma nonostante questo Sadye dimostra di avere un carattere fantastico restando fiduciosa e confidente nei confronti degli esseri umani, è docile ed affettuosa e in cerca di contatto. Cerchiamo per lei persone pazienti e gentili, disposte a dedicarle tempo e attenzioni. Adottare Sadye significa dare una seconda possibilità ad una creatura indifesa che ha tanto da offrire, non farla crescere ed invecchiare in canile, offrendole un futuro felice e una casa dove sentirsi amata e protetta. Si trova in un canile privato convenzionato in provincia di Roma ma la affidiamo anche al nord, dopo le dovute verifiche preaffido, sterilizzata, vaccinata, testata leishmania e ovviamente con microchip.

About Sadye

What life with Sadye looks like

Sadye is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at Associazione ALFA in Roma.

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 Sadye, answered.

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