We bring families and dogs together. All our dogs have been found or left at our shelter in Italy.
Looking for a puppy? We always have puppies waiting for adoption.
We also have adult dogs, all waiting for someone to notice them and fall in love.
Read about our story, how the shelter came up and how our dogs are living.
Because we are a non profit organization we rely on donations to provide food, medicine and shelter to our rescued dogs

So many wonderful dogs are still waiting for their family.
Adopt, don’t shop!
We need lovely people to foster some of our dogs from the shelter in Italy. Fostering helps dogs by giving them a better quality of life and a higher chance to find adoption.
We need YOU as a foster home in Switzerland, France and Germany!
From our shelter to Lifelong Loyalty
