Sara

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Sara, a soul so pure that even her gaze radiates deep love. Every time our eyes meet, we feel a touching emotion, and seeing her confined hurts our hearts. Her story had a difficult beginning. Born in May 2021, this beautiful small female dog arrived at our animal shelter carrying the marks of a past of hardship. We welcomed her thin and in need, but now, thanks to loving care, Sara is a healthy and energetic small female dog. Sara lives in a box with a male dog. Our greatest desire is to find her a family that knows how to give her all the love she deserves. Sara is young, incredibly sweet and gentle, a true treasure waiting only to offer her unconditional affection. We are placing Sara with a microchip, vaccinated and spayed from the province of Caserta.

Sara, un'anima così pura che il suo sguardo stesso irradia un amore profondo. Ogni volta che i nostri occhi incontrano i suoi, sentiamo un'emozione toccante, e vederla confinata ci stringe il cuore. La sua storia ha avuto un inizio difficile. Nata nel maggio del 2021, questa splendida cagnolina è arrivata nel nostro rifugio portando con sé i segni di un passato di stenti. L'abbiamo accolta magra e bisognosa, ma ora, grazie alle cure amorevoli, Sara è una cagnolina sana e piena di vitalità. Sara convivenza in box con un cane maschio. Il nostro desiderio più grande è trovarle al più presto una famiglia che sappia donarle tutto l'amore che merita. Sara è giovane, incredibilmente dolce e tenera, un vero tesoro che aspetta solo di donare il suo affetto incondizionato. Affidiamo Sara microchippata, vaccinata e sterilizzata dalla provincia di Caserta.

About Sara

What life with Sara looks like

Sara is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio San Francesco in Italy.

An 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 Sara, answered.

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