Sid is a small dog who arrived at our animal shelter as a puppy, he has great abilities, he is with the human who is in front of him in knowing how to bring them out. He needs a sensitive family that understands him and knows how to appreciate him, dynamic and involving that knows how to respect his times and spaces. Very competent with his kind, he is learning to appreciate leash walks and is becoming more open towards people. He does not like the chaotic environments of the city, for him the ideal would be to move to a quiet setting.

Sid è un cagnolino arrivato da noi in rifugio da cucciolo, ha grandi capacità, stà all’umano che si trova di fronte nel saperle tirare fuori. Ha bisogno di una famiglia sensibile che lo capisca e lo sappia valorizzare, dinamica e coinvolgente che sappia rispettare i suoi tempi e spazi. Molto competente con i suo simili, sta imparando ad apprezzare le passeggiate a guinzaglio ed è sempre più aperto nei confronti delle persone. Non ama gli ambienti caotici della città, per lui l’ideale sarebbe andare ad abitare in un contesto tranquillo. Guarda Tutti i Nostri 22 Cani in Adozione

About Sid

What life with Sid looks like

Sid is a small adult dog waiting at Canile Oasi Torino in Turin.

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.

Note from the shelter: Needs quiet environment, doesn't like chaotic city environments

🇮🇹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 Sid, answered.

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