Spike’s new life, adopted thanks to the courier. Now he lives with three human companions (and three cats)
His previous owner for health reasons could no longer look at him properly. So he was entrusted to the care of a new family
« Spike It’s fantastic. Affectionate, docile, not at all attacking. It has already been used to our cats. When we go for a walk it has the habit of pulling a little, but it will slowly learn. He loves to be outdoors, but also to sleep blessedly on our bed, which he has already conquered. And it is seen that he seeks affection and company: he has become our shadow, he is always in the room where there is some of us. We are really happy and we would like to say thanks to Leidaa And to his volunteers for the precious work ». Spike, a 2 year old huskyis one of the first dogs adopted Thanks to the Corriere della Sera database dedicated to adoptions. Here we had already told The story of Cumin.
Until a week ago, Husky lived in the Pavese. Now he has found a house in Parma, welcomed with open arms by Iliano Beltrami64 years old, his wife Donatella and the son Simone. There are also three cats in their apartment. «We all adopted them thanks to the ads seen by the vet. They would also have a name, but I call them small, flab and red »says Iliano. Until recently there was also the beloved Cagnolona Sky in the family, missing following a disease. A few months later, therefore, the three decide to adopt another dog. « I tried with the city kennels, but waiting to have them, our son Simone began to watch advertisements on social media and, bouncing on the web, he arrived at the announcement of the Italian League for the defense of animals and the environment that spoke about Spike.
«We had received a request for help for this Husky – he says Francesca Cuzzonivolunteer to the Leidaa of Miradolo -. Its owner for health problems And other vicissitudes that came was no longer able to look after him. In particular to often bring him to walk, given his young age and the characteristics of his race. It was a long time alone in a courtyardin a country near Pavia ». Hence the decision to find a new family and rely on the association. « The detachment from the master was painful – says Francesca -, but the dog immediately reassembled and is happy. The veterinarians from whom they led him say he enjoys excellent health ». « On the booklet it says that Spike is a Yugoslav shepherd – Iliano confirms -, but our veterinarian says he is a husky. We don’t care the exact breed, we are happy to have it with us. We have already been in common to sign for the transfer of ownership ».
And how do your days now take place? “Every day comes out with some of us, for walks that also last an hour and a half – points out his new partner of Sgambata -. We live in an apartment on the first floor, but a stone’s throw from the Parma parks. I really think it will always remain a docile and peaceful dog ». And the coexistence with the three cats? «Of course, when he comes out they celebrate and when they come back they retire to the room. Let’s say they are still dividing the spaces of the house. If he approaches too much, they pull some paws, but he does not react, he is really good. We are sure they will soon make friends ».
