    Frequently Asked Questions

    FAQ

    Do you have questions about adopting a puppy? Here you will find answers to the most common questions. For personalised advice and real-time updates, write to us on WhatsApp.

    Who is Cuccioli Che Passione

    How long has Cuccioli Che Passione existed?

    Since 1979 — over 45 years of dedicated selection of toy breeds such as Poodle, Maltipoo, Chihuahua, Dachshund, French Bulldog and Pomeranian.

    Does Cuccioli Che Passione have a real physical location?

    Yes, the Centro Cinofilo is located in Bizzarone (CO), 3 km from the Swiss border, visitable by appointment before any decision.

    Are Cuccioli Che Passione and Pet & Wellness the same business?

    No — they are two separate businesses with separate VAT numbers. Pet & Wellness is our grooming service in Faloppio; Cuccioli Che Passione is the centre dedicated to puppy selection in Bizzarone.

    How do you verify that a puppy is really the chosen one?

    The microchip number is read together during a video call before the deposit, and verified again at pickup or delivery.

    What is included in the price of a puppy?

    AMICUS registration, TRACES certification, European passport with vaccinations, microchip, and a written contract with post-adoption veterinary support — transparent price from CHF 1,500 to 2,000.

    How does delivery in Switzerland work?

    With our Taxi Dog service, driven by our veterinarians, or direct pickup at the Centro Cinofilo in Bizzarone.

    The Puppies

    Which breeds do you breed?

    We specialise in Poodles — Toy and Miniature — as well as Maltipoos. Selected breeds for temperament, health and beauty, raised with Swiss standards of excellence since 1979.

    At what age is the puppy released?

    Puppies are not released before 60 days of age, but we often prefer to wait 75–90 days to ensure complete weaning, early socialisation and maximum serenity for the puppy and its new family.

    How can I see the available puppies?

    Availability changes quickly. We invite you to contact us via WhatsApp: we will send photos and videos and organise a live video call to meet the puppies and their mothers.

    Are the parent dogs visible?

    Absolutely. During the video call you can see both the puppies and the mothers. Transparency is fundamental to us: we want you to have maximum confidence in the origin and health of your future companion.

    Documents and Guarantees

    What is included in the price of the puppy?

    The price includes everything you need to welcome the puppy in total peace of mind: European pet passport, microchip, AMICUS registration (Identitas AG) for Switzerland, complete vaccinations for the age, deworming, veterinary check-up before handover, TRACES documentation for customs clearance Switzerland/Italy and a welcome kit with food sample and blanket with mum's scent. In addition, lifetime post-adoption support via WhatsApp.

    Does the puppy have a health guarantee?

    Yes. Each puppy is examined by our veterinarian before delivery and comes with a health certificate. We also offer 24/7 veterinary support in the first months and remain at your disposal for any questions throughout the dog's life.

    How does AMICUS registration work in Switzerland?

    AMICUS is the official Swiss database managed by Identitas AG. At the time of handover, the puppy is already microchipped and we take care of the initial registration. We will provide you with the credentials and instructions to transfer ownership once you are home.

    Is documentation for Swiss customs clearance included?

    Yes, we directly handle the TRACES documentation required for the legal entry of the puppy into Switzerland. You don't have to worry about bureaucracy: we take care of everything for a stress-free handover.

    Purchase from Abroad and from Switzerland

    Can I buy a puppy if I live in Switzerland?

    Certainly. We are located in Como, just 3 km from the Swiss border, and regularly deliver puppies throughout Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The geographical proximity allows us to offer you a fast, personalised and customs-hassle-free service.

    Does the puppy enter Switzerland legally?

    Yes, in a completely regular manner. Every puppy travels with a European pet passport, microchip, up-to-date vaccinations and complete TRACES documentation. We comply with all EU and Swiss regulations for animal welfare during transport.

    Do you offer direct home delivery in Switzerland?

    We offer a VIP home delivery service throughout Switzerland. The puppy travels in maximum safety and comfort, accompanied by all documentation. Contact us on WhatsApp to plan delivery in your city.

    Prices and Reservation

    What is the price of a puppy?

    Our prices range from CHF 1,500 to CHF 2,000 depending on the size, colour and characteristics of the puppy — you will find the full price list on the Pricing page, or write to us on WhatsApp for up-to-date availability.

    How does the reservation work?

    After the introductory video call and choice of puppy, a confirmation deposit is required. From that moment we block the puppy for you, start all veterinary and documentary procedures and plan the ideal delivery date together.

    Is it possible to pay in Swiss Francs?

    Yes, we accept payments in both Euro (EUR) and Swiss Francs (CHF). We will provide you with all bank details and receipts in a clear and transparent manner.

    Grooming and Training

    Is the puppy already groomed on arrival?

    Yes, each puppy receives a professional first grooming before handover. In addition, in the welcome kit you will find personalised tips to keep the coat healthy and manage home grooming in the first months.

    Do you offer training support?

    We provide a socialisation kit and a practical guide for the first 30 days at home. Our lifetime WhatsApp support includes tips on basic commands, nutrition, socialisation and any behavioural questions about your puppy.

    How much does Poodle grooming cost?

    Grooming costs vary depending on the city, the size of the dog and the type of cut requested. In Switzerland prices are generally higher than in Italy. We are happy to recommend trusted groomers in your area: write to us on WhatsApp to receive our contacts.

    Beware of Scams

    How can I be sure you are a reliable breeder?

    Transparency is our trademark. We offer live video calls where you can see the puppies, the mothers and our facilities. Active since 1979, recognised by Swiss institutions and reviewed by hundreds of families. Never buy from anyone who refuses a video call.

    Why not buy on generic sites or anonymous marketplaces?

    Anonymous marketplaces are fertile ground for fraud: sick puppies, fake documents, sellers who disappear after payment. A serious breeder has a history, a physical location (ours is in Como), verifiable reviews and does not hesitate to show themselves live. Your safety and that of the puppy come first.

    Is the video call before purchase mandatory?

    Yes, for us it is a fundamental step. The video call is not only to show you the puppy: it is a moment of mutual acquaintance in which we assess together which puppy is best suited to your lifestyle and family. It protects you and protects our little ones.

    Still have questions?

    Every family is unique. Write to us on WhatsApp for a personalised consultation: we will show you available puppies via live video and guide you step by step.
