Laura Clementoni

Laura Clementoni is the head of institutional relations for Alfa OdV, an organization dedicated to animal welfare in Italy. She is actively involved in advocating for changes in legislation that would facilitate international adoptions of dogs from overcrowded shelters in Italy. In a recent appeal, she highlighted the plight of hundreds of dogs, including Ofelia, who remain in shelters due to bureaucratic hurdles and new regulations that hinder their adoption to families abroad. Clementoni's work emphasizes the urgent need for clearer communication and action from regional health authorities to address the ongoing crisis of stray dogs in Italy.
