SPINA cerca un’adozione compatibile con il suo carattere (a Mantova)

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

SPINA was a Puglian stray... She was found on the street, very weakened and discouraged, dirty, malnourished and scared. She was rescued by fantastic volunteers. Then ADOTTAMI COL CUORE took SPINA in charge and took care of all her medical treatments. We didn't want to put her back on the street or leave her in a shelter, so we decided to place her in a five-star pension in the province of Mantova where the 'ugly duckling' became a lovely dog. According to the records, she was born in October 2012, but in our opinion the little one is a bit younger. Unfortunately, Spina has suffered who knows what when she was on the street and tends to bite if someone tries to touch her, but we don't exclude that we can find her a family that respects her character and helps her regain trust in humans. It would be wonderful to find her a mom and a dad who can offer her a home, preferably with a garden, in an extremely quiet environment. From Mantova, for a beautiful adoption, she can go anywhere in northern Italy. She will be dewormed, treated against parasites, vaccinated, spayed, tested and microchipped. ⛔⛔⛔We require completion of a questionnaire and a pre-adoption visit. Only adults and no time-wasters. ⛔⛔⛔For information, photos and videos, you can contact without obligation: ADOTTAMI COL CUORE ODV Giulia (3496403337) - Veronica (3496325688) Those interested can request information not only by phone but also via WhatsApp or email.

IT·Show original

SPINA era una randagetta pugliese… Fu trovata in strada, molto provata e abbattuta, sporca, denutrita e spaventata. Raccolta da fantastici volontari fu messa in salvo. Poi ADOTTAMI COL CUORE ha preso in carico SPINA e si è occupata di tutte le cure sanitarie. Non volevamo rimetterla in strada e nemmeno lasciarla in un canile, pertanto abbiamo deciso di sistemarla in una pensione a 5 stelle in provincia di Mantova dove il ‘brutto anatroccolo’ è diventato una bellissima cagnolona. All’anagrafe risulta nata ad ottobre 2012 ma a nostro avviso la piccola è un po’ più giovincella. Purtroppo Spina ha patito chissà che cosa quando era in strada e tende a mordere se la si vuole toccare, ma non escludiamo di poterle trovare una famiglia che rispetti il suo carattere e le faccia riacquistare la fiducia nell’essere umano. Sarebbe stupendo trovarle una mamma ed un papà che le possano offrire una casa, preferibilmente con giardino, in un contesto estremamente tranquillo. Da mantova, per una bella adozione, potrà arrivere ovunque nel Nord Italia. Verrà affidata sverminata, con antiparassitario, vaccinata, sterilizzata, testata e microchippata. ⛔⛔⛔Richiediamo la compilazione di questionario e una visita preaffido. Solo maggiorenni e no perditempo.⛔⛔⛔ Per informazioni, foto e video è possibile contattare senza impegno: ADOTTAMI COL CUORE ODV Giulia (3496403337) – Veronica (3496325688) Gli interessati potranno fare richiesta di informazioni non solo telefonicamente ma anche tramite whatsapp o via e-mail
