SNIPPER

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

SNIPPER, 35 pounds of sweetness. He is a magnificent long-haired white dog, playful, happy, calm and super energetic. Estimated date of birth: September 2022 Snipper is an incredible dog, very active and lively. He knows how to walk on a leash, he is sociable with people, although at first he seems a bit shy. Absolutely no cats! With other dogs it depends: no problem with the little females, while with the males it needs a proper introduction because not all of them suit him. This big dog has the character of a Maremma shepherd (strong and territorial) but at the same time is gentle and playful. For him, an informed adoption is required, preferably with knowledge of the breed. He is not yet used to the car, but it will be easy to teach him. His story began in a sad way... you should know that he was found as a puppy on the street and was visually impaired. Deworming and vitamin supplementation were sufficient for him to regain his sight. He is currently in a boarding facility in Volta Mantovana: you can come meet him in person, by appointment! They are looking for an adoption in Northern Italy... He is neutered, vaccinated, tested for leishmania and ehrlichia, and microchipped. For information, photos and videos: ADOPT ME WITH HEART ODV Veronica 3496325688 Interested parties can request information via WhatsApp or email: . The pre-adoption questionnaire and the pre-adoptive visit are required. Seriousness is required, no minors, call only if really interested.

SNIPPER, 35 chili di dolcezza Lui è un magnifico cagnolone a pelo lungo bianco, giocoso, felice, sereno e super energico. Presunta data di nascita: settembre 2022 Snipper è un cane incredibile, è molto attivo e vivace. Sa andare al guinzaglio, con le persone è socievole, anche se di primo impatto risulta un pò diffidente. Assolutamente no gatti! Con i cani dipende: con le femminucce nessun problema mentre con i maschietti è da valutare con un inserimento adeguato perché non tutti gli vanno a genio. Questo cagnolone ha il carattere del pastore maremmano (carattere forte e territoriale) ma allo stesso tempo è tenero e giocherellone. Per lui si richiede un’adozione consapevole, possibilmente con conoscenza della razza. Al momento non è abituato alla macchina, ma sarà semplice da insegnarglielo. La sua storia è iniziata in modo triste… dovete sapere che è stato raccolto da cucciolo in strada ed era ipovedente. Sono state sufficienti la sverminazione e l’integrazione di vitamine per far sì che tornasse a vedere. Attualmente si trova in una pensione a Volta Mantovana: potete venire a conoscerlo di persona, previo appuntamento! Si cerca per lui un’adozione nel Nord Italia… Si affida castrato, vaccinato, testato leishmania erlichia e microchippato. Per info, foto e video: ADOTTAMI COL CUORE ODV Veronica 3496325688 Gli interessati potranno fare richiesta di informazioni tramite whatsapp o via mail: . E’ prevista la compilazione del questionario preadozione e la visita preaffido. Si richiede la massima serietà, no minorenni, chiamare solo se davvero interessati.

About SNIPPER

What life with SNIPPER looks like

SNIPPER is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Adottami col Cuore in Andria (BAT).

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 SNIPPER, answered.

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