Sbirulina

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

Spayed: Yes Description Sbirulina is a small female dog, sunny, full of life, kind and calm with people. She likes to run and play with other dogs. Well-behaved on a leash and in the car. History She was found when she was three months old in an open field, very malnourished and her body was full of scabs and blood due to mange parasites. After a long treatment, she became a beautiful and sociable puppy, but no one ever decided to welcome her into their life, so she grew up in a cage. Ideal adoption We are looking for a dynamic family that loves to take long walks and truly loves her, because she deserves only lots of happiness and a soft cushion to rest on.

Sterilizzato: SI Descrizione Sbirulina è una cagnolina solare, piena di vita, dolce e tranquilla con le persone. Le piace correre e giocare con gli altri cani. Brava al guinzaglio e in macchina. Storia Lei è stata trovata quando aveva 3 mesi in aperta campagna molto denutrita e il suo corpo era pieno di croste e sangue dovuti al parassita della rogna. Dopo una lunga cura è diventata una cucciola bellissima e socievole con tutti, ma nessuno ha mai deciso di accoglierla nella proprio vita e quindi è cresciuta in gabbia. Adozione ideale Cerchiamo per lei una famiglia dinamica che ami fare lunghe passeggiate e che la ami davvero, perchè merita solo tanta felicità e un cuscino morbido dove riposare.

About Sbirulina

What life with Sbirulina looks like

Sbirulina is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Lega Nazionale per la Difesa del Cane — Conversano in Conversano.

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 Sbirulina, answered.

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