Mugello, 400 euros to anyone who adopts a dog from the municipal kennels

The municipalities of the Tuscan area of ​​Mugello have decided to offer a contribution to those who adopt an adult dog from the local kennels.

• The municipalities of Mugello, in Tuscany, offer a contribution of 400 euros for the maintenance of an adult dog taken from local kennels.
• An interesting way to encourage informed adoptions of animals who, otherwise, could remain in kennels for life.

THE municipalities of the territory of Mugello – Barberino, Borgo San Lorenzo, Dicomano, Firenzuola, Marradi, Palazzuolo sul Senio, Scarperia and San Piero e Vicchio – have implemented a beautiful initiative to support the adoption and support of dogs found wandering in the area.A contribution of will be offered 400 euros for the maintenance of the adopted animal, provided that it is a adult and that he has been in custody in kennels for at least three years.

Mugello confirms itself on the side of animals

THE'union of municipalities of Mugello has always tried to implement actions in favor of the animals present in the area.The pro-adoption initiative provides that the contribution decreases in proportion to the seniority of the adopted dog and the time it has spent in the kennel, gradually reaching 300 euros for the adoption of a subject of at least one year old, remained in the kennel for a period between 180 days and i three years.And the sum comes down to 200 euros for that of a cub less than one year old.

Why all this?The project was designed specifically to encourage adoptions of adult dogs, who are those with the greatest difficulty in finding a home and who, once they enter the kennel, risk ending their days without finding a new family and stable affection.

When the dog is a lifestyle choice

Mugello dogs can be adopted by private, associations or institutes who, however, are able to demonstrate that they have the requirements to be able to keep and love them.One was also planned distance adoption of dogs housed in local kennels to ensure the well-being and necessary care for dogs who still find themselves without a family.

However, the disbursement of the sum is controlled by the municipal authorities so that it is used only for adopted dogs and for their maintenance.A way to encourage adoptions, of course, but also to guarantee transparency and above all safety for the four-legged friends who benefit from the contribution.
