How do I contact the shelter about Ugo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Il Silenzio degli Invisibili — Gera Lario handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ugo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ugo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Il Silenzio degli Invisibili — Gera Lario 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 Ugo 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 Ugo 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 Il Silenzio degli Invisibili — Gera Lario early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ugo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Ugo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 7 years

Ugo is a 7-year-old Cane Corso with a huge heart. He comes from a dog shelter camp, but despite his difficult past, he has retained an amazing kindness: he quickly got used to the leash, is sociable, well-mannered, and loves being around people. When volunteers finish their shift, he becomes sad... because for him, the best thing is to feel part of a family. He is a balanced and affectionate dog: he loves quiet walks, slow cuddles, and looks that say "you are safe". With his peers, he behaves well, coexists peacefully with cats, and can be very sweet with children. A real "teddy bear" who only asks for stability, love, and routine. We are looking for a responsible family for Ugo, capable of offering him presence, regular walks, and the respect that a large dog deserves. After years of undeserved loneliness, he is ready to be reborn by the side of those who choose him forever. 📍 He is located at our animal shelter in Gera Lario (CO) 📲 To meet him: 339 251 6448 (message/WhatsApp) Open the door to Ugo: he will repay you with infinite loyalty. 🐾 Ugo can't wait to meet you, and you? HERE IS THE PAW!

IT·Show original

Ugo è un Cane Corso di 7 anni dal cuore enorme. Arriva da un box di canile lager, ma nonostante il passato difficile ha conservato una gentilezza disarmante: si è abituato subito al guinzaglio, è socievole, educato e adora la presenza delle persone. Quando i volontari finiscono il turno diventa triste… perché per lui la cosa più bella è sentirsi parte di una famiglia. È un cane equilibrato e affettuoso: ama le passeggiate tranquille, le coccole senza fretta e gli sguardi che dicono “sei al sicuro”. Con i suoi simili si comporta bene, convive serenamente con i gatti e sa essere dolcissimo anche con i bambini. Un vero “orsacchiottone” che chiede solo stabilità, amore e routine. Cerchiamo per Ugo una famiglia responsabile, capace di offrirgli presenza, passeggiate regolari e il rispetto che merita un cane di taglia grande. Dopo anni di immeritata solitudine, è pronto a rinascere accanto a chi lo sceglierà per sempre. 📍 Si trova al nostro rifugio di Gera Lario (CO)📲 Per conoscerlo: 339 251 6448 (messaggio/WhatsApp) Apri la porta a Ugo: ti ricambierà con una lealtà infinita. 🐾 Ugo non vede l'ora di conoscerti, e tu? QUA LA ZAMPA!

About Ugo

What life with Ugo looks like

Ugo is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Il Silenzio degli Invisibili — Gera Lario in Gera Lario CO.

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.
