Serafina

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Serafina is 3 years old, of medium build, and exudes an infinite sweetness. She was found wandering in the countryside and as soon as she was discovered, she approached as if she had always known us. She is of a calm nature with everyone. Upon her discovery, we noticed she was a bit lame in her hind legs. The veterinarian believes that the possible fracture she may have sustained in the past (now calcified) is likely due to an accident. As visible in the attached videos, she has no difficulty in movement. She is in Sardinia but we are also considering adoption outside the island. She is a small female dog compatible with any reality in which she can be loved and respected. For information and only for those genuinely interested: Flavia 393/9515573. Email: . Website: www.zampesarde.it. Fill out the online adoption request form only if you are convinced to submit the request.

IT·Show original

Serafina ha 3 anni, tg media ed è finita dolcezza infinita. È stata ritrovata vagante in campagna e non appena individuata si è avvicinata subito come se ci conoscesse da sempre. Lei è di indole tranquilla con tutti. Al momento del ritrovamento abbiamo constatato che fosse un po’ zoppa nella parte posteriore. L’eventuale frattura che può aver subito in passato(;ormai calcificata) è probabilmente dovuto ad un investimento secondo il veterinario. Come è visibile dai video allegati, non ha difficoltà nel movimento. Si trova in Sardegna ma valutiamo anche adozione fuori dall’ isola. È una cagnolina compatibile con ogni realtà in cui possa essere amata e rispettata. Per info e solo interessati: Flavia 393/9515573. Email: . Sito: www.zampesarde.it. Compilare il modulo di richiesta di adozione online solo se convinti di presentare la richiesta.

About Serafina

What life with Serafina looks like

Serafina is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Zampesarde in Italy.

A 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 often microchipped and sterilized before leaving, but confirm with the shelter. Some public canili rifugio waive adoption fees, so ask the shelter about fees.

Frequently asked

Adopting Serafina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Serafina?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Zampesarde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Serafina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Serafina if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Zampesarde whether they will for Serafina, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Serafina already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Serafina. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Zampesarde, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Serafina isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Zampesarde about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Serafina 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.
